Looking for something 'tennis'

[Jayell]

Some great new goodies this month! Thanks, guys!

I'm looking for something tennis-y. Something like the volleyball motion video from this month .. but with a tennis ball. Is that do-able? I'm just finishing up the video on my Dad's life (up to this point). He was a avid tennis player. I was trying to figure out how to add my own tennis ball to the 'net' motion video, but I'm struggling a little

Let me work on it Jayell, I can probably find a tennis ball graphic I can replace the volleyball with.

You can use the Net Motion background without the ball too, that will work for any sport that has a net, use the Timestretch to slow it down to the length you need. You can also find a good looping position by lining them up on two tracks and adjusting until they are seemless.

Thanks, Chuck. And thanks for the tips. Yes, I was going to just use the Net motion background .. but a tennis ball would be sooo much better . No hurry, Chuck .. even though I'm pretty much done, I think I'm going to be tweaking Dad's video forever

Hi Jayell,
Just finished the tennis backgrounds, almost identical to the volleyball but I changed the net color and use a tennis ball. I am not sure how quick Ron can get them into the products pages but I am sure he will do it as fast as he can.

Hope you like it, there is a PAL and NTSC version with a transparent background, and there is also another version without a transparent background (no alpha channel).

[Jayell]

Wow .. that was quick, Chuck! I'll keep my eye out for it. I guess I could just hound Ron , but as mentioned it isn't critical .. just something I'd like to get finished up, since I've started on my next one already.

Love the tennis backgrounds! Fantastic! Can't believe how fast you all are and talented. The tennis ball with the trail is really impressive, can't wait to use it. It is a good thing I joined back in Feb., think I have downloaded or viewed about $200 worth so far.

One thing to note. When I downloaded Steve's tips, 11 I think, each one was tagged by my Trend virus as 'suspicious'. What's up with that?

[Jayell]

Thanks so much, Chuck .. those are great!
.. and Ron for getting them up.

The tennis backgrounds are great! Just a thought for future effects....I love the hockey puck shattering the glass.....maybe someday a baseball shattering the glass for future muvipix products!

Thanks! Kerrie

I assure you that there are no viruses in any of our products. Can you provide more detailed information as to the suspicious alert? Probably needs to be reported as a false positive.

[Chuck Engels]

Could be because it requires you to install a player the first time, maybe?

This tennis background with the transparency is great, Chuck! I have a photo cutout of Dad holding his tennis racquet in a 'ready stance.' I can get the tennis ball to look like it's travelling right through the frame of his racquet. I'm having so much fun playing, I'm n-e-v-e-r going to get this project finished Thanks again for the quick response .. and the great work!

Thanks Jayell, glad you are having fun
