Apply effect to selected part of the movie
Hi, I'm working in a movie and I would like to select just a bit (for instance, one minute) and apply and effect to this one-minute part.
How can I do it?
Thanks very much in advance for your answer
Hi, thanks for your answer. I think I do as you say.
I mark the I and O points. It is highlighted. I dropped the effect on the timeline or on the clip but it affects to all the movie.
I can not see any way to apply it only to the highlighted section. Maybe I'm doing something wrong??? or did I miss anything????
Thanks again. Looking forward to your answer

Dim all but a selected part of the movie
I'd like to draw attention to a certain (rectangular) part of the screen.
Is it possible to dim all but a selected part of the screen?
ThanksVery simple.
Duplicate the clip and put it on V2 above the original clip on V1.
Apply a colour correction filter or blur to the clip on V1.
Load the V2 clip into the Viewer and using the motion tab crop out the rectangle.
This will work a treat assuming the shots are static.

"Movie Magic" with Stills and Dissolve
When you 'prep' your stills in any 'picture app', you can do a lot of marvel by simply applying dissolves.
In your case, I would create a white document (in Pixelmator, Keynote, Photshop, online at pixlr.com, whatever ...) and another with your logo (and further more ones with additional logos). Drag the jpgs into your iMovie Project and apply dissolves - tadahh! - logos appear on white. -
Finished DVD plays (shows) complete green screen instead of movie for part of the movie
In Premiere CS4 the movie I made plays fine. In Encore timeline the movie plays fine. Yet when the DVD is burned and then played, part of the movie just shows up as completely green on the screen and then it will stop and the rest of the movie will play fine for a while and then the screen will go all green again. Any ideas of what I am doing wrong?

Is there a way to place markers in a multicam clip, and then have those same markers carry over when you select part of the clip for a project (or various projects)?
Thanks. Beforehand, I was double clicking on the multicam clip and forced to make a marker on either the Cam A or B. I realize now that I can do it in the Event Browser. THANK YOU.
Considering I may create >20 markers per clips for around 10 different interviews, I wish there was a way to bring the Event Brower to the bottom half of the FCPX windows, to resemble the screen orientation when I'm working in an actual project (one could do this in iMovie), and this way the markers could be listed to the left without having all the other event clips around it. Is that clear? Is that possible? -
How to use X-Fi Effects without selecting SB as the default sound device?
How to use X-Fi Effects without selecting SB as the default sound device?Hello everyone,
That's my situation.
I have Sound Blaster X-Fi Go sound card and I am using SRS HD Audio Lab. SRS HD Audio Lab was selected as the default audio device and X-Fi effects (X-Fi CMSS-3d, Equalizer etc.) was working without any problem in Windows Xp. I have Windows 7 now and when i select SRS HD Audio Lab as the default device, Creative effects are not working, i must select "SB X-Fi Go!" to get them working but i can't use SRS HD Audio Lab in that case. SRS is also using SB X-Fi Go sound card as the output and volume adjustment on console launcher is working but something is disabling the effects. Any solutions to enable effects ?
Thanks.If the kernel modules for your sound card and webcam both support the index parameter (use modinfo to find out) then adding
options <name_of_preferred_card's_kernel_module> index=0
options <name_of_second_card's_kernel_module> index=1
to /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf (or another modprobe conf file of your choice) should solve the problem. -
Applying effects to selective frames in a video clip
Question: What is the best way to add a mask only to certain frames in clips of a sequence on Premier Pro CC using After Effects (i.e., a single frame mode)?
I am trying to fix a keyed video, but only need to fix frames here and there and do not want to animate it.
In the past, I have used the following methodology:
SUMMARY: Remove, modify, render, export, and then re-insert each frame that needs to be fixed (one by one) starting in Premiere Pro (CS5, CS6, or CC) and using After Effects (CS5, CS6, or CC) using the following steps:
1) Open a timeline with the entire video sequence
2) Cut the frame that needs to be fixed out of the timeline sequence, basically leaving a one frame hole
3) Apply the mask, filter, or other effect to the frame within After Effects
4) Export the modified frame in the format of the original sequence (recommended) as a new one frame clip
5) Import the result back into your open Premiere project
6) Drop the imported one frame clip back into the original sequence in the spot where it was cut from
7) Repeat for each frame
8) Finally, re-export the entire project to the final desired format.
There has to be an easier way than this.
NOTE: The cross-launch function between Premiere Pro (PPro) and After Effects (AE), where a new AE project is opened by selecting this option in a PPro project/sequence, is very confusing and awkward to use, and has never been useful for me when doing other operations such as Color Channel modifications or channel replacement/swapping. So unless there is something within this function that will do the job, and then re-create the new video export faster, then I have ruled using this out.If you just have a few frames to mask then start your mask in a safe spot just start your mask where you need it to work, animate the mask for the few frames you need, then, when the mask is no longer needed move forward one frame and move the mask clear off the shot. Copy the mask keyframe, move to the first keyframe for that mask and then back one more frame and paste. Your mask will now be off the shot completely, jump into position when needed, then jump back off the shot. Problem solved without splitting layers or doing anything else funky with the shot.
In many cases, if you need a lot of masking to fix a key you can solve the problem with another instance of your keyed (Keylight) on a duplicate layer and then use that copy as a track matte for the first. I do this all the time. Sometimes I'll have as many as 4 or 5 copies of the footage, all keyed differently removing different parts of the background, each with a different garbage matte, and then combining them all using track matte to produce the final plate for compositing. -

Irregardless of the Premiere Elements version...
I do not believe you are doing anything wrong. I have not found it possible to copy a Timeline clip to which Time Remapping has been applied and use Paste Effects and Adjustments to other selected clips on the Timeline to achieve the same fast or slow motion for more than one clip at a time. For one thing the duration of the Time Remapped clip is different than those that have not gone through Time Remapping.
And, you cannot select more than 1 clip at a time to be taken into the Time Remapping workspace.
Also, special considerations need to exist for Pan and Zoom Tool for its pan and zoom effect applied to more than one photo at a time.

I will think about this some more. But, at this moment, it appear to be it is what it is.

Having trouble selecting part of a movie
hi,
have just upgraded to qt pro.
am trying to select part of an existing movie (a .mpg in this case),
in order do some editing.
i can't get the selection in and out indicators to show up in the
player window in order to do the selection.
i followed help instructions re unchecking the 'hide selection
indicators for empty selection.'
but doesn't help.
can anyone give us any help please...
thanks,
tonycan anyone give us any help please...
QT Pro is working normally here. Multiplexed compression formats like MPG (MPEG-1) are "playback only" supported by the QT structure. They cannot be edited or converted (and retain audio). If you wish to select a portion of such files, use the free MPEG Streamclip application. Selected content can then either be saved using the "Save As..." option or converted to a fully supported compression format (and retain audio). -
Purple shadow to add titles appear only at part of the movie.
I want to Drag & Drop a title over a video (like a subtitle). But only the bottom part of the clip shows the purple shadow which allows me to drop the clip. So I have to first drop it there and then move it to the other part. This is really strange?
This is from the documentation: "As the title hovers over the video,
a purple shadow appears, representing the frames that the title will cover."
Any advice would be great!
Thanks,
HolgerI should have explained further. The game opens in a new window over to the upper left of my screen, leaving the original page underneath. I tried minimizing it so that I could get to my toolbar and did the View > Zoom > Reset. This has no effect. The lower portion of the game is still not showing. Using other browsers the window or frame of the game is much larger, therefore everything shows.
-
So, I'm making a stop motion for youtube, and the movement is way to fast for me to try and talk for it, so, I need to be able to add subtitles down at the bottom of the screen. Can I do this on iMovie for the iPad?
First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. You can find it by googling MPEG Streamclip Squared 5.
Open MPEG Streamclip.
In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
Also, for how to add a pointer, try Karsten Schluter's website for a good post on how to do this. -
Zooming in/out while selecting parts of the audio file?
The company I am with use Cool Edit 2000 for our audio editing, in Cool Edit it allows you to click and drag to select parts of files while you are doing this you can use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. This helps for when you need to zoom in at the beginning of the sound and drag to the beginning of the file to delete any unwanted sound or lack of sound, zooming out while doing this allows you to do it very quickly.
I have tried the trial version of Adobe Audition 3 and I was not able to do this.
My questions are:
1. Was this feature removed?
2. If not how do I enable this feature.
This feature will determine weather or not my company will purchase this software. Thanks for the time to answer my questions.zooming isn't a problem its zooming out while dragging over the file to select it, basically what I am doing is zooming into the beginning or end of a file selecting the precise beginning or ending holding the left mouse button and dragging left or right while I am doing this I am zooming out to make it select what I need faster and deleting those areas away.
I just read about the top/tails view, I am going to check it out see if this helps. -
CS5 - Applying Actions to Select Part of Image
Hello,
I'm working in CS5. I'm new to actions and I would like to apply the action only to a specific part of the image. For example, for a portrait, I would like the action to apply to the background of the image, not necessary on the individuals face.
I'm not aware if there is a way to apply it to the entire image, then erase it from the areas I don't want it to apply, or if I lasso an area and apply it. I've tried it several different ways to no avail.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
LivI would like the action to apply to the background of the image, not necessary on the individuals face.
As the differentiation of fore- and background of an image can be a convoluted issue (have you ever tried to clip the image of a curly-haired person from a background of shrubbery?), it does not lend itself to automation easily.
I'm not aware if there is a way to apply it to the entire image, then erase it from the areas I don't want it to apply
If you work with Adjustment Layers or Layer Masks in general the Masks can subsequently be edited easily. -
Apply effect to an area of the video - eg, blur a license plate
Hello,
Is it possible to apply an effect to an area on the screen? Eg blur a license plate or someone's face?Hi(Bonjour)!
Yes it's possible to apply any effect on area of a clip only. Simply duplicate the footage in timeline, apply the filter and use a 4 or 8 point garbage matte to isolate the desired portion.
For blur/witness protection, there are many free plugins on the WEB that apply witness protection/blur on the clip like Andy's region blur:

Hello,
I have image present in ImageIcon. I want to select the part of the image in it using Mouse? I want to drag and select it....
Can anyone help me in finding this?
Thanks,
SriGeez, you post a question late Sunday night and want an answer early Monday morning. Contrary to public opinion many of us do have lives away from these forums.
What have you done on this requirement so far? Can you display the ImageIcon? You can use MouseListener and MouseMotionListener to define the subimage to select.
Start off with that and post specific questions for more detailed help.
Cheers
