Can I make 16:9 Movie from DV footage shoot in 4:3

Hi I am new to FCP and have been asked to make a movie and put it onto DVD for a friend of film shoot at their wedding. The DV footage was shoot in 4:3, can I make a 16:9 project in FCP and import the 4:3 footage and edit it ok?
Thanks,
Nick

You can create a 16:9 project, but you'll have to expand the clip to fill it, or crop the top and bottom, then zoom it up - as it wasn't shot in widescreen, you will lose some image somewhere - and it wont show you anymore when its played back anyway.

  • How can I make the Counter move from inside text box to inside Footer?

    I am tweaking a page. At this point, I cannot move the Counter and the Email Me icon from the bottom of the text box to inside the footer like someone here said he does.
    Why do the Counter and the Email Me icon resist being moved?
    I am in Graphics mode. I never had this problem before.

    Lorna,
    I'm not sure why you can't move it down into the
    footer — by inside the text box, do you mean the page
    "content" or "body" section, or did you somehow get
    the icons into a text box? I know that you can
    "force" a text box into the footer (or header) by
    selecting it, then dragging it while holding the
    command (Apple) key down at the same time.
    Hope this helps.
    Bob
    Bob,
    When I say Text box maybe I am not using the right word. I am referring to that entire space on the page which is dedicated to receiving documents or images. If you have a lot of pictures or words, then that text box/space has to be lengthened to accomodate.
    I am saying that the two icons -- Counter and Email Me -- are sitting (or were sitting. It's morning now and honestly, I can't recall from last night!) at the very bottom of the text box/space.
    I made a Footer (55 pixels) specially to accomodate the Counter and Email icons. The problem, as stated, was/is that those icons would not budge from where they were sitting.

  • How can I make my mail MOVE from inbox to a smart mailbox???

    Hi, I do business on my computer and I set up some smart mailboxes for some mail I get daily. However, the mail that goes into these smart mailboxes, doesn't seem to move there, now I have two copies of that mail. I want these files to MOVE OUT OF MY INBOX into these smart mailboxes, HOW do I do that? Or is that not the purpose of the smart mailboxes?
    Anyone have an answer?
    thanks

    Smart mailboxes are not separate folders that can store files, they are indexes to files that are stored elsewhere. The same mail item can appear in a dozen smart boxes, if it matches the criteria, but only in one normal mailboxes.
    Make some normal mailboxes and set up rules to sort your incoming mail to them.

  • Can you make a quicktime movie from a uTube video?

    I can watch a particular UTube video on my computers (iMac, Macbook), but not on my iOS devices ('not available on this platform').
    Is there a way to download this video in Quicktime, or .MOV etc. format?  I'd like to be able to share it with those who have iOS devices.
    Thanks for any help of advice!

    As I thought. Thank you for the reply Dan. I thought I'd ask in case I'd missed some hidden setting.

  • How can I make a still photo from imovie

    How can I make a still photo from imovie?

    Let's assume you have iMovie 11 (Version 9). (If you have a different version, let me know. The instructions will be different.)
    First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (google MPEG Streamclip from 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.
    You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.
    I have created a short video Tutorial on how to do this. There is one error in the Tutorial, where it says that Command-click is the same as right-click. I should have said Control-click instead.

  • Can I sync or import movies from VUDU or Flixter into my Itunes account?  If so how do I do it?

    Can I sync or import movies from VUDU or Flixter into my Iturnes?  If so how do I do it?

    I to would love to know if anyone has found a way to do this.... I purchased several bluray dads, and normally the software gives you the option to use the "ultraviolet" streaming and/or download a copy to iTunes, but these all seem to be Flixter or nothing. I contacted the folks at "UV," "Flixter" and Warner Bros as well, and they all told me "tough luck" on my request to get iTunes versions. Flixter even went so far as to tell me, "...we cannot provide digital copies in every media format for certain films for a variety of logistical reasons." which is total BS, and they know it.
    The problem I have is that SOME of these bluray DVDs offer the option of iTunes and other do not, but this is NOT specifically identified on the package -- you really don't have any way of knowing until you open the package and attempt the download. Some will offer you the choice, others will not, but the package, in my experience, never says, 'This will NOT work with iTunes."
    This really should be the foundation for a class-action lawsuit against the studios who do this BS "bait and switch" to try to force you to use a less then desirable format or poor quality 'streaming' service. I realize the studios want to make more $$ and that means screwing over Apple/iTunes and by default the consumer, by forcing a shoddy product they make more profit on.... No different than an electronics store pushing you to purchase 'brandX' because it has a higher profit margin for them... except that YOU HAVE THE CHOICE.
    Apple could make a killing by accepting their codes for discounts on the iTunes versions... say half-price... just a thought.
    But seriously, to all those out there, this really should be put into a class action suit..... I would be on-board.

  • How can I get an itunes movie from macbook to apple tv via airplay, how can I get an itunes movie from macbook to apple tv via airplay

    how can I get an itunes movie from macbook to apple tv via airplay?

    You don't use Airplay.  You set up Home Sharing on both and under the Computers section of AppleTV you'll then find it under Movies (or Rentals if rented), assuming it's in a compatible format.

  • How can I import an m4v movie from my desktop to my event Library in iMovie?

    How can I import an m4v movie from my desktop to my event Library in iMovie?  I want to include the m4v movie into another project in iMovie.

    When you import DV Stream from tape, iMovie 11 will assume that you are importing raw footage from a camera, rather than a finished movie. It will create a new clip everytime it detects a scene break (the record start/stop button was pressed). These clips will be placed in chronolgical order - not the order they were on the tape.
    One way around this is to import the tape into the application that you used to create it. For example, if you used iMovie 6, import the tape back into imovie 6. In iMovie 6, you can export the tape back out using FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME. Choose the DV codec in an MOV container.  You can then import this MOV file into iMovie 11 and have everything in the proper order for your finished movie.
    Another option is to use FInal Cut Pro X.

  • How can I make an audiobook purchased from another source show up in iTunes as an audiobook and not as music?

    How can I make an audiobook purchased from another source show up in iTunes as an audiobook and not as music?
    They chapters are mp3 files. Changing the genre to "audiobook" or "audiobooks" does help.
    I am sure this question will come up a lot, since the book in question is "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," purchased from Pottermore.com.

    The one thing I would add to the instructions above is that the "Media Kind" menu is on the "Option" pane in the "Get Info" Window. This procedure has allowed me not only to make imported audiobooks show up as audiobooks, but imported podcasts show up as podcasts.

  • How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance

    How can I stop music and movies from being automatically deleted from my phone and saved on the cloud? I've just tried to watch a movie on my 2 hour commute, but yet AGAIN it has been removed. I do NOT want to spank all of my data allowance downloading it again, especially because (believe it or not) I added it to my phone because that's precisely where I wanted it!! Any help much appreciated

    FYI I had to put this link into firefox to reply - because **** back safari just wouldn't register my clicks to any of the links on the post... Despite reloadeing and even restarting my computer. Totally annoying and a massive pain in the ***.
    But in terms of my initial query; thanks for responding. But no, this is NOT the cause of the problem. I have auto sync and sync over wifi activated, but have also selected manually manage music and videos. Plus, all of my music and videos are on my macbook, absolutely all of it, so if it my phone was syncing with my macbook everything would still be on the phone. Life would be peachy if my phone jsut copied everything that was on my macbook, but unfortuantely it keeps deleting tracks for no apparent reason.
    Any thoughts greatly welcomed, because at the moment i can only conclude that my iphone is crap.

  • Can I watch a rented movie from iTunes on my iPhone while on a plane?

    Can I watch a rented movie from iTunes on my iPhone while on a plane?

    I read that I may need to start the movie prior to departure so that it can connect via wifi (or whatever internet connection I use) and start the 24-hr "timer" for rented movies.  So,.. no truth to that?  More specifically, I can start a rented movie on iTunes, while on a plane, without an internet connection?

    I just bought a new MacBook Air. In my old one, I could go from screen to screen by using three fingers to swipe over the key pad. This one just sits there. It is Yosemite. How do I set up preferences so I can use three fingers to move from screen to screen?

    Those choices are controlled via System Preferences, Trackpad.
