Photo booth effects with Imovie HD?

I was having a ball with the weird effects of phone booth and thought it would be fun to have those real time effects in Imovie HD so I can record a short video clip instead of just a simple snapshot. Is this possible?

Robert,
No. I don't think you can.
Here's something I did as a kind of workaround.
Take a series of stills using whatever Photo Booth effect you like.
Now bring those stills into iMovie. Next record a voice over and then click the Editing Button and choose Audio FX. You can then use the Pitch Changer to alter the pitch of your voice.
Moving the slider towards Chipmunk goes particularly well with some of the crazy Photo Booth effects.

  • Photo booth effects in imovie

    Is there a feasible way to use effects from photo booth in imovie? I would like to have the background-effect and use my isight-camera. There is no effect to choose. Unfortunately the quality is too bad if I record directly from photo booth. I did not found a way to optimise the quality in the application itself. Thank you for your help! I would like to use it for a project with my students.

    Is there a feasible way to use effects from photo booth in imovie?
    Not directly from either app.
    Here are a couple of alternatives you can consider:
    (1) Record the clip in Photo Booth (PB) using the effect you want. Then quit PB and launch iMovie (iM.) Import a copy of the clip located in your Home > Pictures > Photo Booth folder and named "Movie xx.mov" into iM.
    (2) If you have iMovie HD (before iMovie 7.x), record a clip and add Editing > Video FX after the clip has been recorded. These are not identical to the effects PB adds during recording, but they can approximate some of them on clips you have already made. 
    I suggest a short test first to determine whether you like what you can do before you record an entire project without knowing if you can approximate the effect you want.

  • Photo Booth Effects While Recording

    Is there a way to record video in iMovie with Photo Booth effects? Is there a program, a hack, or just something I have to do in order to have effects if I want to record with iSight?
    Thanks in advance,
    agent6998

    Well, I don't want to use software fors screen capture because the frames end up being very slow. And I'm definately not going to aim a camera at my monitor because it will have very bad quality. Also, the only camera I use is the built in i-Sight so I can't move it. But, anymore suggestions? I saw, in the package contents of Photo Booth, a quarts movie that has all the different effects for photo booth. Is there a simple quartz plug-in I can get for iMovie?

  • Photo Booth Effect not working

    I upgraded to 10.4.8 and 75% of my Photo Booth effects stopped working. There is only a blank screen instead of a camera image. Has anyone else experienced this problem. Photo Booth worked great before the upgrade. I have a 20" iMac intel. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

    Hi OH~IO,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions
    First try Repairing Permissions, with the Disk Utility in Applications/Utilities. This will read your Receipts folder for the latest Permissions based on the Updates.
    Next, if that does not work try deleting com.apple.Photobooth.plist for your Home/library/Preferences Folder and restarting Photo Booth.

  • Photo Booth Effects have vertical green lines

    Can anybody explain why some of my photo booth effects have vertical green lines running through them and how it can be corrected/removed?!
    Looking at the files they all begin with "dts"

    This question is shown as answered, did you find a solution??? I have the same problem, but not with the original effects. Just with the ones that I uploaded from apples website.

  • Use Photo Booth effects in FaceTime?

    Can you use Photo Booth effects in FaceTime?
    Thanks in advance.

    Not with just FaceTime on it's own. However if you would like to get technical you can use a 3rd party app such as CamTwist you can use special effects. If you would like help with that or have any other questions let me know. :-)

  • Get back old Photo Booth effects?

    Is there anyway to change the given effects in Photo Booth and get some old ones back? Or do I just downgrade PB in general?

    If you are not running Lion, you probably won't have these new effects. Lion comes with some cool new features like full screen Photo Booth, or new Photo Booth effects. If the person who posted the pic was your friend or family member, just ask them how they got those effects.

  • More Photo Booth effects

    Hey there!
    Just wondering if there are there any other effects to add to photo booth out there? I haven't found any on a quick google search. Thank you for the information!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions, enigma2118
    I don't know of any Photo Booth effects you can add to the ones that are part of the application.
    If you need more or different effects and are willing to use a different application, you can check Funny Photographer and WebcamTweaker to see if either offer any different ones you like.
    If you cannot find any other way to get the additional effects that you need, you can edit existing images by using an image editor app. PhotoShop Elements or any other real image editor application can apply effects to images that you already have in your computer, whether you captured them with your digital camera or with an OS X application and your iSight. In PSE, you use the "Filters" menu commands to distort, blur, color, or otherwise modify images. Other image editors may use different commands.

  • Lion Photo booth effects dizzy and lovestruck are broken.

    I just got lion and I think it is really cool. But when I go to photobooth the dizzy and lovestruck effects have black boxes around the birds and hearts. I have the more photo booth effects pack installed, but one of my friends who also has lion does and It works fine for him. I also have lion on another one of my older macs and the effects work fine  on it. I havent done anything to photobooth It was just like that after I got lion. Any help will be apreciated.

    Has anyone found a solution to this? The problem seems to not only affect Photo Booth, as some of the themes in iMovie that also use alpha channel masking do not work for me

  • Applying Photo Booth effects to photos taken in another application?

    Is it possible to apply the Photo Booth effects to photos that were taken outside of the Photo Booth application? For example, I have some shots in my iPhoto library that I'd love to apply one of the Photo Booth effects to. I can't see an option for doing this in the Photo Booth menus or help section.

    I do not have a new iMac G5 (iSight), so I do not have Photo Booth either. However, looking at Apple's new iMac pages and the Photo Booth 1.0 Help info leads me to believe that Photo Booth is an application for making snapshots rather than for editing existing images.
    Check Photo Booth > Help on your iMac. If it does not tell you about editing existing images, you likely cannot do so.
    Depending upon your experience level, image editor apps like PhotoShop or PhotoShop Elements can add the effects to your existing photos. Adding effects to existing images will require some effort, but it can be done. Unless your version of iPhoto is one of the very early ones, you can even set your iPhoto > General preferences to open your existing iPhoto images in your image editor app for easy access and editing from within iPhoto.
    Because Photo Booth is only available with the iMac G5 (iSight) computer, you may find more help from Photo Booth users in iMac Discussions.

  • How do you download more photo booth effects on mac lion?

    how do you download more photo booth effects on your macbook pro with mac lion version? Effects such as sharpen, film stock, etc.

    There should be a download link on the extra special effects Photo Booth website.  If not, do a Google search for a site that has download links.

    Welcome to Discussions, Maxime Lahousse
    For any iSight problems, first try restarting the Mac. If the problems persist, try all relevant suggestions from:
      http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    If your iSight problem still occurs in more than one app and more than one user account, the reset suggested there often restores proper function of inbuilt iSight.
    However, if your built-in iSight still does not work after carefully following all the suggestions in the "How to Troubleshoot iSight" article, and if iSight does not show as a USB hardware device in your Mac's System Profiler utility, yours is most likely a hardware problem. In that case, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
