nelson Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Thanks Mur, It is nice to see the breakdown on how you are accomplishing your displacement maps. Looking forward to exercise 2. Kieron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUR Posted November 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 Thanks Kieron, you are one of the few who give me feedbacks. I love them, the good ones are flattering, but the bad ones if are reasoned, they teach me a lot. I want them all MUR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MUR Posted November 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 Thanks Tonton Bruno, it is one of my multiple exercises only to understand Objects and Animation. Not useful for "normal" videos MUR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary A Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 Thank you Mur. I still have a lot to learn! Can you explain how I can get gentle movement on a lake for example or is that another subject? Rosemary A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Bad Dancer. It's quite clear for me except for the "cutting out masks" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonton Bruno Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 Hi Chanfi. Theses masks determine the areas which will be impacted by the displacement maps. Congratulation, Bad Dencer, for this magistral lesson ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Dancer Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 Tonton Bruno, Everything is right. Masks to limit the effect of the displacement map. The program does not have a tool for cutting or creating masks of any shape, so a regular template mask is used, copying and modifying which you can cut out the desired fragment of the layer. That is, by combining round masks, changing their size, rotating them and moving them, you can achieve the desired result. The effect of the displacement map depends on the mask file, let's say using a black-and-white linear gradient, you can achieve the effect of a bent layer.chanfi22, I'm glad I could help you somehow. Thanks for the comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonton Bruno Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 something to emphasize: It is no longer mandatory to use normal maps as masks for displacement maps; any black and white image can be used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkb Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 videos can also be used as displacement maps. But to acheive the effect of height differences then a Normal Map is best. Jill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denisb Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 Another example of water movement on the lake: use of the waves templates and a mask Denis test_Nov22-2022_15-50-15.zip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary A Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 Thank you everyone. All this work while I was having my beauty sleep! I am looking forward to trying out your method this afternoon Bad Dancer. Thank you. No doubt there will be questions! I am excited about being able to apply movement to water.

Rosemary A Posted November 24, 2022 Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 Hi Everyone, I have to admit defeat with the displacement maps. Would someone please give me a short tutorial as to what steps I must take to achieve the rippling water? Which maps to use from step 1 etc Displacement map or Mask templet adapted to the shape required for the ripples. Rosemary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUR Posted November 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 Hi Rosemary, I recommend Barry Beckham's tutorial on Displacement Maps, I was lost and that tutorial taught me the basics clearly and concisely. Then practice, practice and practice to discover the infinity of details. MUR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary A Posted November 24, 2022 Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 Hi Mur, Thank you. I have followed Barry's tutorial and I agree it is excellent. I think my problem is the application of several masks and where to apply the displacement maps. Barry starts with a blank slide but in this case I have several places to apply the ripple effect.
