Black border around an inset clip?

I've done a movie with a little inset clip on the bottom left (comes in after about 5s). 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gB7oiBo1v0M
I want to put a black border around the inset clip - as can be seen I've done this (I know I need to remove the drop shadow). 
But the vertical border on the left is narrower in width than the horizontal border across the top.
I've seen another movie by someone else where all the borders are the same width.
Just wondering how to do this as I couldn't see relevant controls in the generator's inspector..
I used the Shapes generator, btw. Set to rectangle, no fill, black border. 
It's a bit of a fiddly process getting it to fit - is there a better way?

Ah, that's just what I was looking for - thank you!

  • Black border around all clips

    Hello
    I have a black border around all my clips from one camera even when I set the canvas to "fit to window" I'm having to scale up these clips to 138% to get them in line with other clips in the project. I suspect this may have been an incorrect camera setting but is it possible to fix them all in FCP without having to scale each clip individually?
    Many Thanks
    Adrian

    If you get one clip the way you want it, you can copy it, select all the others, right-click, choose "Paste Attributes", and check "Basic Motion".

  • Black border around clip in canvas

    When I edit a shot in the viewer, it takes up the whole window, but when I move it to the timeline I have to render it, and it doesn't take up the whole canvas window like it should. Other clips, which I don't have to render, fill the entire canvas window properly. Any idea what the problem is? Thanks.

    Easy setup is DV-NTSC Firewire Basic. I think the problem is with the sequence, not the clips. The clips is sequence one have the black border but the same clips in a different sequence do not. I just noticed that the compressor for each sequence is different. 1st one (messed up one) is DV - PAL, 2nd is DV/DVCPRO - NTSC. I don't know why but I must've changed it at some point. That's probably what the problem was.

  • Easy way to put black border around cropped video.

    Hi
    I was wondering if anyone knows of an easy way to put a 2-3 pixel black border around a cropped, shrunk video clip.
    Its kind of a picture-in-picture deal, but the "simple border" filter doesn't take into account the cropped edges. I've also tried drop shadow, but I need it to be hard lines.
    Any suggestions (I'm looking for the easy way because I need to apply this effect to about 100 clips, otherwise I'd just put a black colour matte behind the image).
    Cheers
    Chris.

    Layer the Boris Vector Shape generator around your clip. It's a great tool.

  • What about this black border around my movie?

    I've just started learning about iMovie. With a Canon Digital I've shot some test footage. Thing is, some of the clips have a black border around the entire movie where other clips have no border top and bottom but do have side borders. What gives? Many thanks.

    The problem sounds like it could be an issue with what format you selected for the project when you first created it. iMovie gives you a choice of DV, DV Widescreen, HDV 1081, HDV720, MPEG-4. If you choose one format for your project, but the camera is not set for that particular format, you will see the black bars appear on the sides or around the top of your image.
    Which Canon camera are you using? Check to see what format the camera is recording, and make sure your new project matches this.

  • Black Border Around Footage

    Hello,
    I have a problem when I import footage into Final Cut. If it is from my camera in SD at 16:9 I get a black border around the footage. It looks like the footage is scaled down a bit but when I open it, it isn't. When I capture it, it looks normal and I can work with it in iMovie but as soon as it is in the timeline of FC it gets the rectangle around it.
    Please help, I need to fix the footage +by tomorrow+.
    -thanks

    Please be specific. What camera is this? What format are you shooting? What are the item proprieties for the clips? What are the item properties for the sequence? Do they match?

  • Black border around jpegs even tho frame size set right

    Hi
    Can a friendly soul please tell me why my images are not the same width as my video footage.
    The project is set to "standard" at 720 by 576.
    When I set up the image prior to importing to CS3 i make sure they are the same 720 by 576.
    Yet after theyve been imported i get a virtical black border around the left and right side. the pic is too narrow.
    Experimenting with the sizes before import it seems 769 by 576 is about the right size.
    But now the image (its a movie title) moves ever so slightly as i play the timeline. Its the first clip in the project.
    Images are created in photoshop and then saved as Jpegs.
    Video footage is DV PAL quality filmed on a Sony pd150 camcorder (this is a GREAT bit of kit btw)
    thanks in advance

  • Youtube video has black border around it

    I impoted a short clip from my camera (640x480 4:3 ratio) into the organizer, then from there opened a premiere elements project and shared the video to Youtube.  The video in premiere element looks fine, it has black stripes on the left and right sides which I think is normal given the source resolution/ratio.  The final video on Youtube, however, has a larger black border around the entire video, including black space at the top and bottom. Why is this, how can I get rid of this extra border?

    This usually indicates a mismatch between your source video and your project settings.
    Which camcorder model did your video come from and how did you get it into your computer?
    When you started your Premiere Elements project, which project settings did you select?

  • Black border around all the pictures in my video.

    I'm new to the forum here and am struggling to find an answer to my problem and wondering if someone might help me. I am using adobe premiere elements 9 to make a picture slideshow.  I have about 90 pictures, with text on several of them and audio throughout the whole thing.  I don't know this program very well, I've used it one other time to make a video.  When it's all done, I burn it to a dvd.  The problem I'm having is that when I burn it to the dvd and play it back in my dvd player, the pictures are reduced in size and there is a black border around them all (all 4 sides).  Do you know what I can do to make it go away?  The last video I make didn't have it so I'm not sure what I've done with this one.  And I did try compressing the pictures and it didn't change anything.
    Thank you so much!
    Alisha

    Steve,
    I actually went through last night and compressed all the pictures to a document size.  Some of them are smaller  (628x439) than 1000 x 750 but some are a little bigger (1024x768).  I noticed as I compressed them in the folder outside of premiere, it also changed them in premiere.  However when I  burnt the new dvd, there was no change.  If I make them smaller (for a website) will that help?  Also, is it something that I would have had to have done before doing the project?  I've already put about 10 hours into this video and really don't want to start it again.
    Bill,
    As of right now I have still images and 3 video clips in this presentation, but if it helps I can get rid of the video clips.  I've actually removed them and tried it again, but had no luck.  And I plan on just burning it to a dvd-r disc to watch on the dvd player.  What this project is is I take pictures from the last year of my daughter and make a "birthday video" for her with music and some text on the still images.
    Also, should I turn on the scale to default frame size?
    I don't know a lot about the video making world, so the verbage kinda goes over my head, but when I began my project I just said ok to whatever it opened it with which says "DSLR-1080p-DSLR [email protected]  I'm now thinking maybe I should have changed the setting, but am at a total loss for what it should be.  Please excuse my ignorance   What I'm wanting to do it just be able to play it on a dvd.
    And lastly, I can't even thank you guys enough for helping me!  I'm beyond frustrated and I really appreciate your kindness!

  • How can I print with black border around edge of image?

    I'd like to add a black border around the edge of certain images I'm printing. I know it's fairly trivial in Lightroom, but I can't see where this option is in Aperture. Is this lacking in Aperture, or am I just missing it? Many thanks.
    PS -- I'm aware there are some plug-ins that claim to do this, so if Aperture can't do this, please feel free to chime in with comments on the best plug-in for this task.

    Aperture BorderFX 1.1
    Thanks, Rich. That's a good plug-in, and does cover what I need (with lots of other features, too). The problem, though, is it requires an export of the image, which I then have to either print from another application, or reimport to Aperture to print. I was hoping to find something that will either just apply the border to the print job, or that would serve as more of an Edit With . . . type of plug-in than an Export plug-in, so I can keep everything in one place. Thanks again.

  • How to get rid of the black border around the artboard

    Hopefully my last question for tonight.
    I need to get rid of the black border around the artboard. The two images show my drawing lined up with the art board and then inside the artboard. The dark gray is not the artboard.
    As you see, the artboard has a black border. I need to get rid of it. It shows up in my project when my color key is green. The black won't go to transparent.
    So how-to get rid of the border? Thanks
    ***Update***
    I figured it out. View > Hide Artboards. Maybe this will help someone. Doesn't change the fact my spider looks like a tick:)

  • How to remove black border around image files?

    I'm something of a beginner with Photoshop, so forgive me if I've missed something entirely obvious: for some strange reason I'm now getting a black border around all image files that I save through the "Save for Web & Devices" panel. Does anyone know how I can save without creating this border? It looks rather unsightly when I load it into a client site. The file in question is a .png, but I seem to be getting the same effect with all other image files as well.
    Thanks in advance,
    Shane

    One cause could be having the matte color set to something other than none.
    Is that a png-8?

  • Black border around hotspots in Image map?

    I have an image map in my HTML file that contains three

    threads on the border problem talk about putting 'border:none" in
    the IMG tag, but there's no IMG tag..it's an image map and border
    is already set to "0". The code is below:
