Hi Ted, I replied in “Comment” about your tutorial 3D_from_2D_Image_Using_Displacement_Maps): I didn’t understand how have you made a displacement map of a surfer in Photoshop. About freeform and similars, all is clear now.

Many thanks!

HiJohn, I’just made it but water effects in really better in the other tutorial by Jelescu, using freeform.

THX!

Okay,
sorry, but Color Correction you mean comes after color matching… but you can’t make a Color Correction before the color matching process…
Before – so I know – you have to “balance” all color from your others images (this is color Matching, I know)with the reference colors background and than, when your images have the same color value you can make Color Correction.

Anywhere, do you know any tutorial for this specific job (Color Matching I just said) cause I found just tutorial for simple color correction.

(Maybe We are talking about the same thing…)

Many Thanks!

Thank you to everybody,
for Color Matching I mean to uniform many different footage… mainly a background shot (that normally is the reference image to match color) with others footage (live shot action keying processed, 2D and 3D image cgi…).
I knew Finesse 3 but I couldn’t find a tutorial for Color Match but only for Color correction…
essentially I look for a plugin but also tutorials that explain how to use the plugin to do color matching.
I hope you can help me!

Many Thanks

Great Dan!

Thx Dan,
my problems with expression is almost alway the same Start and End it at a determinate time…
Regardless of the content of the expression, I would like to understand what commands to use to start a particular second and make it cease to another second…
For example, i have this expression applied ti Light parameter:

probability = 6;
opacity_normal = 100;
x = random(probability);
if (x <= 1) {
opacity = random(100);
} else {
opacity = opacity_normal;
}

I’d like to apply to this expression a Start time (at 36th second) and a n End time (at 39th second). Can I utilize your command? Something like this…:

beginTime = 36;
endTime = 39;
probability = 6;
opacity_normal = 100;
x = random(probability);
if (x <= 1) {
opacity = random(100);
} else {
opacity = opacity_normal;
}

?????

THX!

Hallo Dan, I didn’t understand in this your code where is the END parameter where the expression stops. I Understood that at 4 second starts expression (beginTime = 4;)
BUT where stops???
For instance, in your expression (), if the comp is 10 seconds and I’d like to activate expression from 2 second to 8 second, what I have to write?

beginTime = 4; // start at 4 seconds
if (time < beginTime){ 0 }
else{ t = time – beginTime;
veloc = 5; amplitude = 20; decay = .9; amplitude*Math.sin(veloc*t)/Math.exp(decay*t) }

THX!
