OT: Viewfinder overlay

UlfLaursen wrote on 1/21/2010, 10:16 PM

Hi

I need a viewfinder overlay for a still to be used in promotion, so as if you see the still on a flip out screen or through the viewfinder. No need for highres, but best eps or psd.

Tried istockphoto.com where I usually buy stuff like that, but they do not seem to have it.

Thanks for any input.

Open your own view finder; take a snap - DONE!

Thanks Grazie. I have tried that once and it did not turn out that well...

Us track motion with video clip to insert in view finder. I've done this with images for a television screen.

I would create it in Photoshop. You don't have to be *exact* and duplicate a real camcorder (unless you need/want to) Just add some/most of the features and people will get the idea.

Of course you need to have a transparent background on the image.

Or at least it will give you an idea.
