[Kenneth Tolaas] “and I want to animate the blue lines flying around the text.
“What exactly does that mean, “flying around?”
Why would anyone suggest Trapcode or Particle World to make a couple of shapes fly around? why would anyone suggest 3D?bogiesan

[Kenneth Tolaas] “I made it work quite well, but when I turn around the blue lines with 3d, they are totally flat, is there a way to make them thicker, to make them 3d as well, I guess it would be..?
“Hmm, another goo reason to open the manual.
There is no depth in AE’s 3D objects because it is not really a 3D application.bogiesan

[Kenneth Tolaas] “hats the kind of answers we like.. =)
I havent used 3d before, but I will try your recipe, and see if I can make it work..
“That’s not an answer, it’s a recipe for frustration and disaster. If you cannot figure out how to import and use AI paths as masks, you cannot hope to tackle a 3D project.

[David Gudelius] “So tell me that you implement these features, and I will buy your product. 🙂
“I do not represent Cycore and I never gave you a reason to think I did.
You’re just arguing to hear yourself type. I am done with this discussion.

I’ve been using CC effects since they were first introduced as Final Effects and Studio Effects. I have never needed those features. Not ever.
If you need them for deeply technical reasons, you must find alternatives that you want to spend your money on in a way that allows you to bill your clients for your improved output.The closest thing I’ve ever seen to Cycore’s basic package is the series of Boris 3D filters. Their Cylinder, Sphere, and Cube systems actually have several good points missing from Cycore’s basic set. I have not used any Boris tools for many years.

I wish I had something helpful to offer. I use Motion for scrolling credits often, no issues at all.
Have you tried simply adding one or two pixels of vertical-only blur? You can use any of the blur filters and set it to ramp in once the movement starts.

[Will Crowe] “I am using final cut express 4 which is typically very similar to final cut pro. I need to know how you make the clips divide individually when uploading in HDV.”
You’d want to be asking in the FCE forum. This isn’t in the FCE manual? Should be.

[Nigel Askew] “On windows machines, when we play any .mov file, it works up to about 10 minutes and then seems to ‘corrupt’ every time. The video goes grey with blocks of multicoloured squared dancing around on it. This happens on all of the video files we tried through windows machines.”
I’m not surprised in the least but this is a Windows or Windows QT issue and it is not related to the network or to the machines at all.
You will need a windows geek to help you debug it but you can start with some tests. Try building a set of video clips with timecode burns that are 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 15 minutes long. Create them in at least two different bandwidth sizes or frame sizes.

You must assess the overall risk of the judges marking your project down for what you think are “blurry” credits and their ability to objectively evaluate the quality of your story, editing, photography, audio mix, and effectiveness of the film as a work of art. If the credit rendering is THAT important to this contest, you’re in the wrong contest.
Forget the credits for now or recreate them as sets of still images, a perfectly acceptable and, some might say, elegant solution. Concentrate on getting your project burned to BD (first festival I’ve heard of demanding BD submissions).
