Tiffs imported from photoshop are flickering in FCP, what did i do wrong?

Hello there,
I am making a short animation for a museum using high res tiff and jpgs of fingerprints. I changed the color, etc in photoshop and imported then to FCP. After adding some basic animation (e. rotation, scale, and movements) the images are flickering and are no longer clear. Is this a problem with the pixel aspect ratio when importing? I have tried exporting as several files formats but all look crappy. Any advice please this porjects needs to be completed and I am more of a designer rather than editor. HELP!

First of all, high resolution images mean nothing in video.

Second, are any of the portions of the images showing one or two pixel lines? They will flicker.
If you are doing a scale or rotation, start with a pixel aspect ratio twice the size of your sequence settings, and 1 dpi.
See if that works.
I say add a little gaussian blur, but that might remove some of the detail

  • Recovery from created discs failed...what did I do wrong?

    I had created the recovery discs shortly after getting the T61 - 6459CTO w/ Vista.  It created 1 CD to be labeled START Recovery  and 2 DVDs labeled Product Recovery 1 & 2.  BIOS sequence was changed to boot from the CD.
    Inserted and booted from the start recovery CD.  It then asked if I had an Operating System Recovery Disc...I said YES but none of the 3 discs were recognized as valid after inserting so I pressed NO.  It then asked for Product recovery Disc 1 and Disc 2 which I did.  It then asked for a Supplemental recovery disc.  I don't have one of those and pressed no.    A message started counting down...went down to 1 second and the machine hung.  I finally had to hold the power button for an extended time to power it down.
    (a) Should my system have created an OS recovery disc?
    (b) Should it have created a Supplemental Product disc?
    (c) Is this the proper sequence for a recovery from disc to "out of the box"  state?
    (d) suggestions?  (other than calling tech support for factory discs)
    Thanks much!
    PS This is a fresh HD so no recovering from the service partition.
    Solved!

    hello
    i assume that you have lost your hidden partiiton right?
    supplementary s/w disks are model specific and donnot have much of an importance in recvery process it is the choice of the users according to which either you can use supplimentary cd's or not.but those cd's may contain essential s/w for runnning some services of your system as well..so coming to recovery thing ..if you aleady had vista installed you should not have done the reocovery process..if you still have vista installed try making the discs once again
    do check out this link as well

  • Import from Photoshop Album PSA to Lightroom (same in Elements?)

    Hi,
    here my experience with the import from Photoshop Album to Lightroom.
    1. Tags and Collection import
    > OK
    2. Tagging of the imported images
    > NOT ALL of the imported pictures where Tagged!!!
    This is really annoying, as you have no way to know it
    before you search for them.
    3. Import of the edited version of the pictures
    > When a picture as been edited in Album, only the ORIGINAL one
    is imported in Lightroom, not the edited one.
    > At least, the edited one could have been imported with the original
    in a stack!!
    Import functionality is crap for now if you ask me.
    What is your experience?

    Because I've used PSA, PS and now CS2 and 3 for years, I had really hoped--indeed, assumed--that LR would be an elegant and trouble-free solution with which to migrate a large and growing catalog away from the slowness and lack of view in PSA, as well as adding RAW-handling ability (since storage dropped through the floor, I shoot JPEG and RAW by default). While the LR interface is pretty and the fleur-de-lis whimsical, LR is in my admittedly-limited experience neither elegant nor trouble-free from a database perspective. Perhaps in a few versions it will be, but it isn't now. The PSA import was a joke, operations are slow, and despite preference settings, it fires up whenever I hook up anything which XP considers to be an external drive. I have since licensed a previously-installed demo copy of IMatch, which I'd been holding off doing based on my flased LR assumption. Importing PSA to IMatch requires some simple under-the-hood work in Access (there are posted routines to accomplish this), but once that was done the import was flawless, with all PSA tags in their own cubbyhole and associated with the proper images. Why Adobe didn't facilitate this is a real head-scratcher.

  • Why is everything I import from Photoshop pixelated?

    I'm using both Adobe After Effects CS5 and Adobe Photoshop CS5 and no matter what I import from Photoshop, wheather it'd be an image or text or anything, it is always pixelated.. It has nothing to do with the size because no matter what the scale is, it's always pixelated.. I'll create an image in Photoshop and then save it as either a .jpeg or a .png file and when I import them to After Effects they are very pixelated to the point where you can't make out what the image is.. Is there a setting I need to change or something? I need help fast.. Please help Adobe Community!

    FOR NOW?  Hmmmmm, that's a telling comment.  Perhaps its genesis will be revealed at NAB. 
    Frankly, I don't know one way or the other.  I haven't read many of the emails waiting at home from Adobe because I don't get on my home email very frequently.

  • How do I import from Photoshop elements 12 to Lightroom for Mac OS?

    How do I import from Photoshop elements 12 to Lightroom for Mac OS?

    I never did it from Windows to Mac.
    I assume you need to move everything to Mac PSE12 (or PSE 13) by downloading the 30 day free trial of PSE 12 or 13, and then once everything is working, use File->Upgrade Photoshop Elements Catalog in Lightroom. Your tags and albums will remain intact. I believe the face recognition transfers as well to keywords, but the location in the photo of the face will be gone as Lightroom has no such feature.

  • Importing From photoshop to flash

    After importing from photoshop to flash to create a website, the background image that i had within photoshop was set to 1304x700 pixels but when i imported it into flash the image changed to the canvas size that i had made the document in photoshop which was 1000x700 pixels.  Now i can change the size of the image when it has been imported into flash to 1304x700 but it obviously messes up my pic quality.
    Can someone please help me lol im new to this. I might go mad shortly, ive tried importing it three times now.

    The index page copied from the template is now reading the css.  I did nothing other than shut down DW and open it again.  Maybe it just takes a while for the process to complete.  Am now creating more pages that are also not reading css.  Will do the same and see if it all connects.

    If you have failed to make sure that any apps purchased on the iphone were transferred to your computer before updating, then you will have to redownload.
    Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links.

  • All my Photos disappeared after I saved a photo from an email from my wife. I am running Mountain lion on Mac book pro 2012, help. What did I do wrong?

    All my Photos disappeared after I saved a photo to Iphoto from an email from my wife. I am running Mountain lion on Mac book pro 2012, help. What did I do wrong?

    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

    I tried to change the memory and now my Imac will not power on. and there are no beeps. what did I do wrong?

    Don't know.  Could be any number of reasons.  Re-read the how to install RAM manual again for your model iMac.  Double & triple check to make sure you purchased the right RAM chips.   Make sure they are seated properly.  If you didn't hear a snap when seated, the RAM is not properly seated. 

  • Image Squished Upon Import from Photoshop

    I imported a simple Tiff from photoshop and it looks vertically squished upon import (about 5% but still). Has anyone seen this before? I tried exporting but it still appeared squished. Any thoughts on what it may be.

    You can render to whatever size you want.
    You can precompse your HD comp and nest it in a SD comp, and render from that if you wish.
    Or, you could use the stretch options in the Render Queue to downsize your comp.
    The point I'm trying to make is that there are only a few HD frame sizes (image dimensions).
    Generally speaking, you have 1920x1080, and 1280x720.
    Those are the two flavors that you have to work with in HD.
    Some codecs create variations on those sizes based on pixel shape, but that's it for HD.
    Once you depart from one of those frame sizes, you're simply not displaying HD material, beit created in AE, or shot in camera.
    If you present a frame size that was downsized HD, then it is no longer an HD frame.
    If you want to show your client a certain piece "in HD", then you may want to make sure you're showing them a true HD file, and not a downsized verison.
