How to stop the jerking of my video clips? on Premiere Element 10

How do I stop the jerking of my video clips when I add  effetcs ..to do not zoom in or out etc..smoothly.
Thank-you,
Claudette

Claudette,
When you started your Project, from the New Project screen, you were given some choices. If you do not recall what you chose, you can go to Edit>Projects Settings>General, and see what you chose. I do not think that location has moved in PrE 10, but if it has, someone will correct me.
Now, in very general circumstances, one should choose a Project Preset, that matches their Video Source Files 100%, or there can be issues.
However, if one ONLY has Still Images, and there is no Video being used, things differ a bit. In that instance, one would ask themselves a question, "how will I deliver my Video, created from those Still Images?" That answer might be a DVD-Video, a BD (Blu-ray Disc), a streaming Video files on a Web site, or as a file, that one sends to others. With a Stills Only Project, one would most likely choose a Project, that matches their delivery. If there are several delivery schemes used, then I would recommend choosing the one that is the highest resolution, and handling the others with Export/Share.
Now, within all Project Presets, there is a Frame Size, say 720 x 480 for an NTSC DV Project, designed to go to DVD-Video, or perhaps 1920 x 1080 for the production of a BD. Though PrE can Scale large Still Images to fit, it does not do the best job, and there is a major processing "hit," that can bring a computer to its knees. For those reasons, we recommend using a program, such as Photoshop, or Photoshop Elements, to do that Scaling, before one Imports the Still Images into the PrE Project. For SD (Standard Definition) DV, the "rule of thumb" is to Scale to 1000 x 750 pixels. For an HD Project, that same thinking would be 2000 x 1500 pixels. That gives one some "wiggle room." I will actually Scale to the exact pixel x pixel dimensions, unless I have a compelling reason to do otherwise - then, I will calculate the larger size, and Scale to exactly that.
How will you deliver your Project?
What are the specs. of the Project (using the method above)?
What are the pixel x pixel dimensions of your images? If they are random, then concentrate on the larger ones, please.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • How can I raise the volume on a video clip in Premiere Elements 12?

    I want to raise the volume on a video clip in Premiere Elements 12. Can anyone help?

    Always good to give the computer operating system involved in case any computer specific details needed to be included. But here is your
    generalized yet specific answer for Premiere Elements 12 and increasing the volume of a video clip.
    If you are in the Expert workspace...
    a. click and drag upward the orange band that runs horizontally through the middle of the audio clip.
    or
    b. go to Adjust Tab/Adjustments Palette/ Volume Panel expanded on move the volume slide toward +6 dB.
    0 db does not represent no sound. It represents the volume of the sound when it was recorded. 0 to +6 dB increases the sound above the recording level; 0 to infinity symbol decreases the sound below the recording level, finally to muted sound.
    Please let us know if you are OK with the details above. My blog post on PE12: Audio Features may be useful to you.

  • How to change the contrast of a video clip ?

    Hi there,
    I am embarassed to ask this basic & elementary question but it is driving me nuts finding it !
    I want to adjust the contrast of the video clip that I imported.
    When I went to the color board, it only have COLOR, SATURATION & EXPOSURE to be adjusted.
    But where is the option to adjust CONTRAST located ?
    Thanks & regards

    Open the video scopes and set it to waveform monitor. You adjust the contrast in the exposure board. Reduce the shadows to zero and the highlights to 100. Adjust the mids as you like.
    Sorry Tom, my bad ... how do I open the video scope ?
    When I click the video clip in the browser, what shows in the Video tab on the info panel are only:
    1) Color - which upon clicking only have the option to tick & untick the "Balance: Not Alaysed" checkbox
    2) Spatial Conform
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks

  • How to remove red eye from you video with adobe premiere elements?

    I would be greatful if someone could let me know how to remove red eye from a video, which I will be using for my acting reel. Thank you!

    What version of Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system is it running?
    Do you have an integrated set of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements (such as 10/10, 11/11)?
    How long is this person with the red eye viewed?
    There are two possibilities that I can think of, but I would have to work it through with the actual footage and adapt accordingly.
    1. Keying and color correction.
    2. In Premiere Elements, do a freeze frame (in Freeze Frame dialog, Edit in Photoshop Elements after Insertion + Insert in Movie Option + adjustment of duration of the Freeze Frame bmp).
    In Photoshop Elements, Red Eye Tool if possible or other color correction tool there.
    How did you ever get red eye in video?

  • How do I import Pinnacle Studio 15 videos into Adobe Premiere Elements 12?

    I no longer have Pinnacle Studio after replacing crashed computer. I installed Premier Elements 12, but cannot figure out how to import all of my old videos.
    Jim Engles

    ATR,
    Thanks for your interest and time. Sorry I did not explain myself initially.
    The files I was trying to import were saved as Pinnacle Studio “project” files. So they must be .stx, as you say. In Windows Explorer I cannot determine the file extension; all I can see is the project folder name and subfolder names.
    Now that I think about it, when I was last working in Pinnacle at least two years ago, I had the option on how to save my files and I saved them as “project.” In fact all of the backed up videos are under an overarching folder named my video projects.
    I did find two backed up files with an .avi extension, which did import.
    So the best solution would be to find a computer to borrow that has Pinnacle installed and open and save the files to export as .avi.  If that doesn’t work, I will try to find a trial version of Pinnacle to use.
    Years ago a coworker told me to buy Adobe Premiere instead of Pinnacle. I wish I had listened.
    Thanks,
    Jim Engles

  • Not all of the audio of my clip is showing up after adding a video clip to Premiere Elements 12. What do I do?

    The first half of the clip, the video and audio are synced up normally. Then about halfway into it, the audio just disappears, the video continues to play like normal. If I play the clip in a different format (e.g. Windows Media Player) the audio works like normal.

    On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running? Have you updated 12 to the 12.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update?
    What are the properties of your source video? What is the brand/model/settings for the camera that recorded the video? Does the camera record the
    video with a variable rather than constant frame rate?
    What have you (manually) or the program (automatically) set as the project preset to match the properties of the source media?
    See readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, and Pixel Aspect Ratio under Edit Menu/Project Settings/General.
    When you play back the video audio in the Edit area monitor, is there an orange line over that Timeline content?
    Please review and consider, and then we can decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • Displaying File Name for Photo and Video Clips in Premiere Elements 10

    I am using Premier Elements 10 on a Windows 7 Pro desktop computer to create
    a project consisting of 128 jpg photo and mp4 video clips.  Before creating
    the project I created a short file name for each clip describing its
    content.  I've added menu tags at locations which separate the project into
    discrete segments.  I've selected a disc menu which utilizes the menu tags I
    created.  I previewed the project and I'm satisfied that the DVD disc I
    intend to create will display everything I want except for one thing.  I
    have spent several hours trying to find out how to have each displayed clip
    include the file name (without extension) somewhere near the edge of each
    window as it is opened in the finished production.  I sure would appreciate
    some help with the steps needed to accomplish this.

    Welcome to the forum.
    This can most easily be accomplished by adding a Title (maybe from a Lower-Thirds Title Template), above each Clip/Still Image.
    I would create one such Title, and manually add the "File Name" in the location desired. Then, place that on a higher Video Track, above the Clip/Still. Then, just use the Duplicate Title function, to create a new Title, with the Text and Style, per the first - edit the Text for each, as required.
    I know of no automated method to grab the Clip's/Still's File Name, and add that to a Title, as PrE does not support any scripting.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • How do I add a transition between every clip in Premiere Elements 11?

    Greetings -
    Folks, I'm looking for a feature that even the cheesy old Windows Movie Maker used to have.  I'm trying to figure out how to get Premiere Elements 11 to add a transition between every clip via some shortcut/quick means.  I find it obnoxious and inefficient that I need to manually drag a transition between every clip.  If I import 200 short clips that I took with my point and shoot camera, it'll take me over an hour alone just to put the transitions in place.
    Is there any way to select a transition and have Premiere Elements add it between every clip?  I've stumbled on the fact that you can click a transition and make it the "Default" but have not been able to figure out what that does for me.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you.

  • Missing Visuals in video clips (Adobe Premiere Elements 10)

    When I load up my video editting program (Adobe Premiere Elements 10) everything appears fine.
    It's only when i try to load a video into the program that things go buggy.
    The Video Clip appears on the timeline. The Audio works perfectly fine. However, the video, or image for that matter doesn't appear in the "viewing screen" (can't think of the right word
    If I add a video effect to the clip (for example, Auto Color) then the picture becomes visible.
    But, when I then render the clip, the picture disappears once again.
    I'm no expert with computers or programs so i am pretty lost on what's wrong.
    The last time I used the program (which was about a week before New Years Eve, 2013)  it was working perfectly fine. I've used the program for the past year with little to no problems, so I am baffelled as to why this has happened now.
    Any kind of help would be really appreseated
    I even still have the original disc I bought when i first installed the program, so if i need to uninstall then reinstall the program it will be eailly done..
    Thanks in advanse for you help

    CreweOnTheSofa
    Along with the Intel Graphics there is something called "NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M"
    nothing more then that.
    That is probably at the core of your problems, and we need to explore this. My take on this is that you have 2 things going on here.
    1. There is an epidematic of display problems targeted specifically at the Premiere Elements 10 user whose computer uses a NIVIDIA video card. (You have Premiere Elements 10 and one of your video cards is NVIDIA GeForce GT 640M.)
    Typically the drill is to have the version of the video card driver up to date. In this case, the fix is to roll back the driver version far enough not to have the display problem. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has not stepped forward to correct the situation.
    Check out the following link to see what you are up against regarding the NVIDIA side of things.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1317675
    2. On the other side of things, you have an integrated Intel Graphics card as well as the NVIDIA. There can be conflicts when two video cards/graphics cards are involved (independant of the NIVIDIA issue). Typically you see disabling of the integrated card, in your case the Intel Graphics. But, I am not sure where that would lead stability wise.
    You could look at both areas and see if you have displays gains for one or the other. I would look at rolling back the NVIDIA first.
    Please review, and then we can discuss this further.
    Thanks.

  • How to adjust the brightness of a video clip/still pictures ?

    Hi there,
    I have a video & a still picture on the timeline. But the video & picture are very dark.
    I wanna apply an effect to increrase its brightness. Where is the brightness effects located ? Sorry, I cannot seem to be able to find it in the Video Effects.
    Thanks

    Look at the color correction part in the Inspector.
    If you have other clips that look ok, you may try "match color" to make the not so well exposed more similar the better ones. If that doesn't work well, click the little arrow next to "Correction 1", and there you can tweak the exposure, but also the saturation and hue of your clip. Don't overdo it (unless of course you do so willingly and knowingly :-)).

  • Export video clip from Premiere into an existing Encore project

    New to encore.....love the software so far....but not much experience with it yet. Here is my question:
    How do I go about exporting a video clip from premiere CS3 into an open/existing encore project. When I try to export to encore from the prem. timeline it makes a new proj. Sometimes I want to render out and export more than one asset into the same encore proj. but cant seem to figure out how to do that. any help would be great.
    Thanks,

    thanks J.....I have been doing it all along the way that you suggested. Just wondered if there might be a more efficient way to bring in multiple files. I appreciate your help with this....now at least I know that I am not doing things in a more difficult manner than necessary.

  • How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    It's not really something to snap a screen shot of. I believe it would need to be a video clip. For instance, when I am working on multiple images in Photoshop, I often need many images open at the same time, but I only have one image viewable and active. The hero image is active on screen while I hide the other images in the dock by hitting the yellow - button on the images. Then I "Hide" Photoshop to do something in the Finder. When I go back to Photoshop, every image that is hidden in the dock will pop open again in the active window, not just the image I was currently working on. I want these images to stay in the dock until I need them, no matter how many times I Hide the Show Photoshop.

  • How to stop the waterflow?

    Hi,
    I need to make the water coming from the shower, when shower is clicked.
    And the water should stop after 5 seconds.
    The code is below.
    The water is flowing nicely. But I do not manage to stop it.
    I added a timer, which starts when the shower is clicked. And should stop the waterflow after 5 seconds have passed.
    With the lines
    if (stop = true)
         break;
         trace("break");
    it looks like the for loop is breaking right from the start, from the first second. But not completely, somehow 1 or 2 drops are flowing.
    Without these lines nothing is happening when the time is over (5 seconds from clicking the shower). Water is just flowing.
    Can someone help? How to stop the water flowing after 5 seconds and clean of the array and stage from the waterdrops?
    Many thanks in advance!
