Can I edit key frame effects?

I am putting together a video of still images and music.  I use the keyframes on each image to create gentle pans and zooms (Ken Burns style), but occasionally I do something boneheaded.  I can't figure out how to fix the keyframe movement without deleting the photo and starting all over. If there is a way to edit the keyframe movement, I would appreciate some direction.  I don't mind reading the manual, but I can't find a solution. 

You can move keyframes, change their parameters or delete them without deleting the image and starting over from scratch.

  • Can you edit 24 Frames Per Second ( 24p ) in iMovie 6?

    Does anybody know?
    I see that when you "Create a new project" you can choose several options, including 1080i .. but can you pick 24p somehow?
    FCP can .. is this too much to ask for iMovie 6?
    FCP seems to hard to use for a beginner .. but why can't we shoot 24p and edit with iMovie....

    The 24p just looks so good to the eye
    sure, but mainly because of usage of "progressive" instead of interlacing...
    the framerate has very little effect on the "psychological" perception of a movie; the main issues of "movie look" are:
    * progressive - as said
    * blurr - video pics are mostly "crystal clear", a film-camera has looong shutter-times, compared to a consumer DVcam (which in bright sunlight switches to 1/2000sec)
    * fps - PAL has 25, which is close to movie.. we have more motion-blurrs then NTSC videos.... NTSC could look "too sharp"...-
    * depth of field - film has a much smaller area of dof
    * different color scheme - ..ehm, to be honest, .. too techie for me
    as mentioned above, you get (some for free) many plug-ins for FCP/E, to accomplish some similiar effect with standard 30/25i material... for the classical "wedding video" I use JES Deinterlacer, deinterlacing the final project before makign a DVD...- looks great too...
    but for sure, not as good as done with your 24p-camera-beast!!
    besides:
    How did you judge pic quality?
    in case, you connected camera to TV... the camcorder did convert from 24 to 30fps ... ... as said, progressive looks great... but can be accomplished much easier.

  • Key frames effect controls and Fast color correction

    I just learned about keyframes and gradual transistion of effects and i like that a lot.
    Putting it in practice using the Fast color correction feature ; I seemed to miss the key navigation bar (I hoped to find it on the right side of the Fast Color corrector title line or ??? in the effects control panel)
    I guess I'm looking at the wrong end of the world, or do keyframes not exist for fast color correction, I seem to notice the keyframe navigation for time Remapping and opacity..... where did I lose the keyframe navigation bar for fast color correction ???
    Pro CSS3 on windows XP fully patched
    hoping very hard I'm just looking at the wrong side of the world
    please give me a hint.

    You will find links to many
    free tutorials in the PremiereProPedia that will quickly show you how things are done in Premiere Pro, including how keyframes work.

  • I've created a key frame effect in FCP but it dissapears along with the moving object in my layer after rendering, how do I fix this?

    I'm creating a titles sequence with Final Cut Pro. In two instances I've put an object in the time line and moved it using keyframes and motion. Before I render the file is still on the layer and visible while scanning the footage with the playhead. However as soon as I render the file dissapears while playing. The object is still listed on the timeline, but is basically invisible when I play the rendered footage. This has happened twice on my timeline. I wish I could explain this any better, but to be honest I've never seen this before and I have no better way to describe it. Other than my object just simply disappears after I render it. Hope you can help. Thank you.

    You want your scratch disk to be set externally to a drive with a minimum of a FW800 connection.  Is that what you have?  (I understand you moved it during the troubleshooting process)
    You haven't turned off Clip Enable have you? Right click the text file and make sure Clip Enable is checked.  Or have you  disabled the track with the green button to the left on the track?
    I can't say I've seen this behavior from FCP.  Maybe someone else has and they can shed some light on the situation.
    I wouldn't use HQ even for a Canon 5D. I use ProRes(LT)  RED or Arri Alexa now we talking big sensors that would take advantage of HQ.  Assuming that the project will be exhibited on a system that would show you the differences.

  • Effects and key-frames not working on some clips Premiere CC 2014

    Hi. I am having an issue where effects and key frames applied to both audio and video are not working, but only sometimes. Even after I render or export the video, the effects are not showing up. For example, trying to adjust volume using key-frames on some clips works fine, and not at all on others. The key-frames show up and I can see the volume changing in the effects panel, but it is not happening. Another example is changing the opacity on some video clips and it does not work sometimes. Same thing, I can see the key-frames and the values changing, but it's not actually happening. I have uninstalled and re-installed premiere pro and media encoder with no luck. I have uninstalled and re-installed the latest Nvidia drivers with no luck. Just to restate, this only happens on some clips and rendering or exporting the video does not help. My computer specs are:
    MSI GT60 Laptop:
    Intel Core i7 4800MQ (2.70GHz)
    16GB Memory 1TB HDD 128GB SSD
    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 880M 8GB
    2880 x 1620 16:9 3K Display
    Windows 8.1 64-Bit

    Here is the exact screenshot.  Now I'm also trying other effects as stated in my original post.  But this effect is just an example.  Is there really something that I'm doing wrong here?  Or am I forgetting something?  Is there some special "adobe doesn't let keyframes work on mpg's" rule or something silly like that?
    I wish that I could post a video, but I don't know how.
    Please let me know what I need to do to make this work properly.

  • How to edit a frame. Please Help!!!

    How can I edit a frame in After Effects.
    Example: I want to take out a chair that I'm seating on from the frame, how do I do that?

    Rotoscope
    Then you have to fill the hole.
    You make the fill by creating a "clean plate" or by filming one at the time of production.
    If you have no Idea what these terms mean then as Todd said in his fisrt post to the first time you asked this question, start with the basics.

  • Is there a way to edit each frame as an Image in FCP

    Hello Folks,
    Just wondering how can I edit each frame as an image in FCP pro... let's say my cam shoots @ 24fps and I import that to FCP, well how can I import these 24frames into a photo editing program such as PhotoShop so I edit each frame and color correct and stuff like that? Also how would I bring it back each frame to FCP?
    What is this process called? Frame editing? I'm not familiar with this because I was told it is duable, i know in Adobe Premier the frames export to a folder where you can edit each image in watever program you want and bring them back to adobe.
    So how can I do this in FCP?
    Appreciate your great help,
    Joey Dee

    just for clarity:
    whilst there is indeed a direct Export option, there is no direct Import option. For Export: use FCP's File > Export > Using Quicktime Conversion.. >> Image Sequence option
    For Import you can first use Quicktime Player's File > Open Image Sequence... option, and export it out to the codec of the original clip/sequence using the File > Export... option. After that you can then import that clip back into FCP.
    its worth noting that this is not "roundtripping", there is no invisible link between the exported frames and the master clip/sequence

  • Edit [Key Mappings] in ItemDetails iView

    Hello, all!
    I'm new to portal content development.
    I successfully created MDM ResultSet iView and MDM ItemDetails iView and I can see all fields that I need.
    The problem is I can't edit Key Mappings for the raw chosen (but I can see the values).
    Is this problem with my configuration?

    Hello, Namrata.
    Thank You for reply.
    I've already set "Enable Edit" option for the IView to true.
    Also I've set the "Updatable" property for Key mapping field to true.
    I can edit any other fields of IView, but cannot edit Key mapping field.

  • Key frame move not that smooth

    Trying to do a simple move on a still image.  Start wide, zoom in while tracking over slightly.  I key frame the first position then key frame the second position.  The second position is, as I say, zoomed in and moved to the right a bit.  So when I watch the move, yes it does go from A to B, but not in one smooth trajectory.  Instead, it moves in a kind of snakey way, moving in then slightly to the right, then in again.  It gets from A to B, but not the way one would expect.  It certainly looks off.   Is there a way to fix this?

    There are several posts about this. Try searching under "straight moves with key frames."
    SOLUTIONS / WORK-AROUNDS:
    1.) Locate your key frames in the canvas viewer (you may have to shrink the canvas down as small as 25%) then right-click on each key frame to change each path to "linear." (It defaults to "S-curve." This is what is causing the "snakes.") If you cannot locate all the key frames (one or more may be  "outside" your viewer) then you will have to manually write down all your parameters in the inspector (admittedly, a pain) and then manipulate your image in the viewer so you CAN find the key frames. Right-click / toggle each key frame to "linear." Then, re-enter your values in the inspector.
    2.) If you are doing a single move or zoom, forego the transform tool altogether. Instead, use the "CROP" function to key frame / animate your move. (This is similar to how "Ken Burns" works, but with your own custom "holds" before and after the move. NOTE: There is no ease-in / ease-out that you get with Ken Burns.)
    3.) Another work-around is to use the transform tool, but to NOT enter x and y "position" values. Instead, adjust your ANCHOR POINT (this has to be done in the inspectior) at the precise point where you wish to end your zoom. Manually, re-center your image in the canvas viewer. Then, set your key frames to start and end your move. In this work-around, the computer is simply "scaling" the image around your new anchor point, and not "re-positioning" along the x/y axis.
    WHY? Moves in FCPX treat "scaling" and "positioning" differently. This is what causes the funky moves. Good luck.

  • Can you set up a key frame on a movie published through iPhoto on .Mac?

    Does anybody know if you can set up a key frame on a movie published through iPhoto on .Mac? I mean the thumbnail for the movie...

    lnbs:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Not in iPhoto. I don't know if you can import the movie into iMovie and set a key frame that way. But that would include some additional encoding to get it out of iMovie and might degrade the quality.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

    how can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

    You do not want to edit material from different frame rates on one timeline. You CAN do this, but it is a very bad idea - and this is why.
    Once you establish the sequence frame rate - lets say it is PAL material at 25fps, any material that you drop into the sequence other than 25 fps will have to be changed to play at 25 fps. If the material you add is NTSC (29.97), FCP will DROP 5 frames per sec to bring the frame rate down to 25 fps. Which 5 get thrown away? Every 6th one. This yields a funky cadence that becomes even more complex as as there are also interlaced fields (DV/NTSC is an interlaced format). Oh, and by the way, the image sizes are different as well. DV/PAL has 576 lines of resolution and DV/NTSC has 480. FCP has to scale up the NTSC to fit the PAL frame.
    You do not want FCP adjusting these things on the fly. You want to do a thoughtful (and time consuming) conversion so that you end up with all your material in one format with the best possible image from the conversion process. Compressor can do an adequate job with Frame Controls turned on. The Natress Standards Conversion FCP plugin is another way to go. A third option is to find a post house that can do the conversion for you using a hardware based process.
    The good news is, once everything is in the same format, editing it will be painless and the output process very quick.
    Whatever frame rate/ image size you select, I'd suggest using ProRes for the codec. It is 4:2:2 color and will withstand color correction and composting with much more grace than any variant of DV based codecs.
    Have fun.

  • Can't edit effect parameters

    This just started happening today. I can't click on the effects symbol that edits the individual parameters for the effect. The window doesn't pop up. Any ideas?

    Found it. This is an easy fix. Go to (yourusername)->Library->Preferences and delete the file com.apple.garageband.plist. This is just a preference file, so after you delete it some of your preferences will be lost, but upon launching garageband again it will automatically create a new file and the effects boxes are working again.
