Adding Effects like slow motion, fast motion etc...

On the old imovie you could add animations, slow motion/fast motion, and other graphics to clips. How do you do the same with imove 08 most important the slow motion feature?

I'm currently using iMovie 08 and I would switch to iMovie 06 but when I try to install it but the message "Please install iLife ’08 before installing iMovie HD 6" pops up. My computer went through a hard drive crash recently and when they replaced it I thought they popped in iLife '08 (hence being stuck with iMovie 08) but i dunno... suggestions?

  • Slow motion / fast motion in Premiere Elements 13

    I read that in Premiere Elements 13 fast motion (and I think also slow motion) ist removed. Is that correct. And if yes: Is there any workaround available?

    Thanks for the reply.
    Great information. If you have been using Ctrl+R, that is the keyboard shortcut that brings up the Time Stretch dialog.
    Time Stretch (use of the Ctrl+R) has not been removed from Premiere Elements 13 Expert workspace.
    Like Premiere Elements 11, Time Stretch is found in the Expert workspace and not in the Quick workspace.
    When you use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+R, I get Time Stretch dialog from where I can create the slow or fast motion effect in the selected clip.
    The following relates to Premiere Elements Timelapse Capture (Stop Motion) which has been removed from
    Premiere Elements 13 as a specific feature that you see in Premiere Elements 11 and 12.
    Adobe Premiere Elements 11 * Capture stop-motion and time-lapse video
    Please let me know if you are OK with the above information.
    Thank you.

  • Slow-Motion/Fast-Motion.

    Just wondering if there is a way to gradually slow down a clip from keyframe to keyframe, as in add a gradual slow motion from one point to another not just an immediate slow down and that being the same speed between the two points.
    Also is there a way to do this for fast-motion as opposed to slow-motion?

    If you are referring to the Time Remap filter (...thanks Ian...) you can see the result only in the canvas: make sure you +always render+ the clip after applying or changing parameters, in order to see the final quality (without rendering, you can get very unusual results... even with RT Unlimited).

  • Slow motion/fast motion effect

    Hi guys
    I'm making my first music video for a song I made. It'll be my first time learning and using a video production software, and I'm not sure if iMovie will be able to handle these type of effects or if I should invest in Final Cut Pro X instead.
    Basically I want this type: https://youtu.be/BYbJmQj5VkE?t=50s
    Where I can speed up the pace of the video faster than it's normal speed. Is iMovie capable of doing this? Would I also be able to do the opposite whereas I could slow down a video less than it's normal speed? slow motion I'm sure it's called.
    Please let me know, Thank You.

    iMovie can speed up or slow-down video, read the Manual:
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0.6/?lang=en#/mov6c442b2eb
    For sure, you can not adjust precisely as you can do in FCPX ...

    High ambitiions, but: why not?
    You do know, that the effect you linked to, asks for a special way how you record teh scene?
    The clip is speed-up, but singer is lip-sync - that is not done by software/post-production!
    While recording, you need a slowed-down version of your music, and the singer has to 'sing' to THAT sloooow version - which looks (and sounds) incredible silly on set
    Then, in the edit-room, the video gets accelerated to 'normal', which makes the background moving faster........
    Here comes FCPX into the game: there you just drag'n-squeeze the re-timed clips to make it fit to music - done.
    iMovie is limited to a few setting.
    Hint: Make some tests in the backyard, before you try the Big Thing!
    fingers-crossed, happy movie making!

  • Plug-In for slow motion/fast motion effects?

    The fact that iMovie '08 does not give us the ability to slow down, speed up, or rewind video kinda stinks. I know that iMovie has it, now, but I don't want to spend the money just for those effects.
    Is there a simple plug-in that makes this possible in iMovie '08?
    *I want only safe downloads. I will only consider downloading it if you have done it first and there were no viruses or anything.

    no plug-ins for iM08/09 .. Apple doesn't offer an official API for that..
    perhaps, you like the workflow, described on my site, using a free 3rd party tool... :

  • Slow Motion/ Fast Motion Audio?

    can you slow down a clip without giving the audio the monster effect, and vice versa with fast??
    Message was edited by: M9GL

    One possible way would be to de-link (Shift-L) the audio from the video, and apply then select the video by itself and apply the speed changes. Naturally the audio will no longer be in sync with your video for the obvious reasons. Oh, don't forget to turn linking back on Shift-L as it effects all clips.
    Happy editing

  • Garageband adding effects like reverb and echo

    Here is the deal. I want to add effects on a specific parts of a track. Now I can select a part of a track but it seems it only allows to edit these parts through the scissorbutton on the down left part of the programm. If I change the reverb on the right, this changes the reverb of the whole track, not just the selected area.
    Is is even possible to change the reverb or echo of selections within a track? Is there a way to make these adjustments?
    Dragging the selections to another track doesn't seem to work either. And I have to edit many little pieces.

    Just a suggestion, but you might get better replies if you post in the appropriate Garageband forum where the GB gurus hang out!

  • How to best achieve slow motion and fast motion

    Hi - I am new to the forum and a basic user of Premiere Pro CS5. I am working on a project shot at 24 fps, and would like to do slow and fast motion.
    From what i understand there are 2-3 different ways to do this in Premiere - choosing speed/duration of the clip from timeline, or choosing time remapping form effects panel ot using rate stretch tool. Wondering how do these compare and which is better - any pointers for this will be great help. Also is slow motion and fast motion better done in After Effects than Premiere. Or any recommended plugins that would work on cs5 and cs5.5. Thanks.

    The main difference between using time-remapping and just using time-stretching is that time-remapping allows you to change the speed quite flexibly at different times in the same clip, whereas stretching just changes the rate for the whole clip.
    See this page:
    "Change speed and duration for one or more clips"
    > Also is slow motion and fast motion better done in After Effects than Premiere.
    After Effects has far more control, especially with regard to how new image information is created between the original frames when you change speed and require frame interpolation (frame blending). Pixel Motion and Timewarp use a very advanced motion vector method (based on the Foundry's Kronos software) for doing this.
    See "Time-stretching and time-remapping".

  • Adding Effect (e.g shadow ) to image in Fxz files.

    Hi
    Can somebody show me how can I added Effect like shadow to images in the FXZ files ?
    Below is an e.g of FXZ converted by “JavaFX Production Suite” from a svg file produce by inkscape.
    I know an alternative is to edit the FXZ file.
    Thanks in advance.

  • FAST MOTION?  Ya know, like Charlie Chaplin-esque?

    So I'm shooting some video off a Sony HD handycam, it shoots 1080 at 60, normal speeds, good quality, it's nice. It already does the slow-mo golf thing on its own, but the reverse of that, the fast-motion, is not an option! If I wanted to shoot fast-motion a la Charlie Chaplin or something like that, but even faster, can I do some sort of an effect in iMovie to make that happen from normal speed footage?
    Thank you for your expert advice.

    iM08 has no slowmo/faster feature.. iM09 has.
    for iM08 users, try this free workaround, described on my site.. :
    http://sites.google.com/site/karstenschluter/slowmowithim08
    (for faster, use a number >1.0)

  • Slow/fast motion?

    I am a super beginner with imovie but im getting pretty good at it and im almost done with my movie but all i have left to do is make something in slowmotion and something in fast motion. does any one know how to do that and can explain 2 me how?

    That is not possible within iMovie '08. Here is one way of doing it:
    - Select just the section of the video you want to slow down, and export it as a Quicktime movie.
    - Download and install iMovie '06 from Apple. It's a free download for iMovie '08 owners.
    - Create a new project, import the clip, add it to the timeline.
    - Find the slow motion effect, adjust the speed of your clip.
    - Export result back out.
    - Import edited clip back into iMovie '08.
    - Splice it into your iMovie '08 project.
    There will be some quality loss as you will go through some format conversions along the way.

  • Two fast motion effects on one clip

    Ive been trying to make a claymation movie right. So I put fast motion onto it, but it wasnt fast enough so I tryed to make it faster. I clicked on the clip with the fast motion on it and made it faster. I can preview what it would look like faster, but I can't apply it. What should I do?

    You can make it faster only once.
    A workaround is to apply the fast effect, then undo it and do a save: the rendered clip is moved to the Finder trash. Import it back to the project, THEN you can re-apply the fast effect to it again.
    This trick doesn't properly work with interlaced input slo-mo because the clip is deinterlaced only when the project is sent to tape/iDVD (you can do a fake export to force this, though). Not doing a deinterlace will produce flicker on a TV.
    Or, make the fast-motion effect with JES Deinterlacer:

  • Fast motion effect

    I am wondering how to make fast motion effect. The idea is to make from long video appr. 40 min (it is processing of printinting on 3d printer) short video. But it should be visible how it "grow" layer by layer.I tried already normal fast forward. Looks bad. Is it even possible?  The camera was stable on one place, so now i need just to make video faster.
    I hope you understand, what I mean

    I want to show how it grow fast layer by layer, but it look like pause and after its bigger for few cm. The process is not that obvious. I want to make it like in documental movie like "how it work" or "how it was made".

  • My i7 sandy bridge with optibay harddrive is running slow in diablo 3 in low setting. Before I can run ultra settings on Starcraft. It lags now even I run log in sc2!!! It gets slower and slower in game that is like slow motion!!! Computer gets hot.

    Hi everyone, I been noticing my MacBook pro getting very slow in games like diablo 3 and Starcraft. This MacBook pro was bought a year ago. It is running i7 sandy bridge with a 128 Ssd. I did install optibay with a monetux xt hard drive in it.
    It could run ultra setting on Starcraft no problem and is very smooth when I first got it. Lately I got diablo 3, and it gets very slow. I had to change all the graphics setting to low. It is not slow in the beginning, but it gets very slow after a while. It is like slow motion!!! Even when is low, it is still very laggy in game. I tried to repair the disk and clean up the laptop with onyx and still doing the same thing. I even try to reboot when is slow, but same thing after I reboot. I guess the MBP still hot.
    Also I am running in lion!

    If it's a 13" MBP you don't have the more powerful dedicated graphics and there is nothing you can do but be mad at Apple for deceiving you that the 13" MacBook Pro was capable of extreme graphics.
    Only the 15" and 17" have the more powerful dedicated graphics in addition to the CPU graphics.

  • Difference between Adobe After Effects and Apple Final Cut; Motion etc.

    I quess my main question is, Do both products do the same thing? I am thinking of buying After Effects for use with Flash, but I see that that Final Cut does allot of the same.
    I would like to know if I am missing something.
    How good is the blue screen effect in express?
    I would like to do alpha transparancies for Flash work on the web.
    Thanks Ed.

    To my understanding After Effects is very different from Motion. They certainly have similarities, but they are two different types of programs.
    After Effects is a Keyframe based post-production tool that, while complex, is exteremely powerful. Motion is more user-friendly and has cool features, but as for raw power for intense CG work it is not your tool.
    As for keying things out, I have only used the croma key tools in Final Cut Pro, and while it works well, it does not have quite the same ease as something along the lines of: http://www.seriousmagic.com/products/ultra/
    If you are looking for an easy, web qaulity way of keying things, seriousmagic is probably the company for you.
