March 3, 2006 at 2:03 amThe intel macs run anything AE TERRIBLY slow – until 2007 when adobe creates native versions. So – it will run – just slow – slower than the original mac minis.
AE does address multi procs – does it best with something like Nucleo from Grid Iron. https://www.gridironxfactor.com/products/nucleo_overview.asp
Hope that helps!

March 3, 2006 at 1:52 amHey there dvickers –
That’s actually a good question -it was so long ago i’ve forgotten – as it was supplied by the client. I know a few people recognized it and mentioned it when the tutorial first came out – but heck if i know.
I’ll see if I can’t find the source files on some long lost backup drive somewhere. If I find it I’ll let you know!

February 8, 2006 at 8:02 pmThanks for your help Shane!
The desination will be the highest quality QT file that will play on a laptop fullscreen (for presentations) – I’m assuming 720×480 QT h.264 files paired with a duplicate in half res for web.
all progressive –
Optionally we’ll create DVDs – but that’s not the main focus.
Uncompressed 8-bit I’d assume I’d need special hardware to edit smoothly? And motion jpg – does that edit nicely? I’m mainly adding titles and speeding up renders 200 to 300%.
Thanks!

January 18, 2006 at 10:23 pmHi Coyowin – try to post a direct link for what you’re talking about when you post questions like these. I’m not sure exactly what you’re talking about – but a lot of times for those stain type looks we’re shooting various dark opaque liquids dropped into clear water/alcohol etc. and filming it against white. Then we turn that footage into a luma-matte layer etc. over paper textures/colors etc.
Not sure if that’s what you’re thinking about – but hope it helps,

January 18, 2006 at 10:19 pmI also believe there are much better things they could add and trouble shoot and spend time on than capture – it did come up a lot in the testing – arguments both ways.
But – if you don’t want to buy an editor just to capture (that’s understandable) just get something like Scenalyzer ($39) – it’s better anyway – i usually use it instead of PPro –
Hope that helps,

January 18, 2006 at 3:06 amRich is right – make sure to get it proofed by the translator after it’s in PS. Things get a little weird in my experience even with the same fonts – especially if going in and out of MS Word.
Good luck and good proofing,

January 18, 2006 at 3:04 aman easy way to do what you’re asking for is to add a hue/saturation adjustment layer above your color layer.
When the dialogue box comes up – slide the saturation all the way down until the image is completely black and white.
click okay
Then – on the adj. layer in the layer’s palette – you’ll see a white box to the direct right of the adj. symbol box. Click it so it’s selected. Then hit ‘b’ for brush and paint with black paint on an area you want to be color again.
That is basically layer-masking out the ‘gray’ effect and letting the source layer show through.
hope that helps,

January 18, 2006 at 2:59 am-_- yikes…
Not to encourage but… 😛
this actually starts to get less calf-like the more one tries to do it – since IE doesn’t support transparent png files – you’ll need to look up the code workarounds to make it work (if, as you say, you’re planning on taking it into Dreamweaver and use it on a site WITH the transparency.)
Get ready for a small headache (all Microsoft’s fault, of course)
