Creating HD video clip

I'm not sure if im in the right forum but I'm trying to find out what program i can use to create up to a 5 minute hd video clip for my golf instruction video library. I'm currently using a sony DCR-TRV950 3CCD video camera. I'm not sure if this camera even produces HD video although it does produce a clean video. Are there any programs that came pre installed on my imac 24 that could produce such hD video such as imovie, idvd or do i need to purchase a seperate program? Thank you, Owen

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
You should be able to use iMovie HD 6 which is pre-installed on the Mac. You can find instructions on using iMovie in the Help menu. Also here is a link to the iMovie forum.
Have fun.

How can I create a video clip that has multiple copies of the same subject playing at the same time? Basically like one person became 50 backup dancers!

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to create a single video clip where my original subject (dancer) is multiplied on the screen many times. Basically I am trying to create a background video for a dance team and want to make it look like an army of the same person dancing behind them. Amy guidance would be great!
Thanks

How can timelapse images be merged to create a video clip in elements premiere 12

Can not find directions to complete this task

Always good to give the computer operating system involved in case any computer specific details needed to be included. But here is your
generalized yet specific answer for Premiere Elements 12 and increasing the volume of a video clip.
If you are in the Expert workspace...
a. click and drag upward the orange band that runs horizontally through the middle of the audio clip.
or
b. go to Adjust Tab/Adjustments Palette/ Volume Panel expanded on move the volume slide toward +6 dB.
0 db does not represent no sound. It represents the volume of the sound when it was recorded. 0 to +6 dB increases the sound above the recording level; 0 to infinity symbol decreases the sound below the recording level, finally to muted sound.
Please let us know if you are OK with the details above. My blog post on PE12: Audio Features may be useful to you.

How to combine 4 angle shots into a single video clip

First of all, I am very much a novice in video editing and have yet to try Adobe Premiere.
I am working on a video project which will film a single subject from 4 different angles: front, back, left and right.
I would like to create a video clip which shows all 4 angle shots playing at the same time. Basically the video has 4 quadrants with each quadrant playing one of the angles.
Is this possible to do in Adobe Premiere? Any references or instructions?
Thanks.

I think that this link will reveal all.

Is it possible to export a video clip from DVD player to iMovie '09?

If I load a homemade DVD onto my iMac using Disk Utility and then import either the entire disc or portions of the disc into iMovie, that works just fine. However I noticed that some clips are missing in iMovie, even though they are on the iMac in form of a .dmg file on the desktop. The same file that was used to import in to iMovie. If I look at this file using DVD player, everything is there, but some of these clips are missing in the event window. So I created a video clip in DVD player of those pieces missing in iMovie and now how can I get these into iMovie?

Hey, best way to import video from a DVD video disc for editing is to acctually have a simple video file. Use Handbrake or MPEG StreamClip to read the disc and create a video file off the video stream.
You could also set in and out points anc manually create several clips, which may help with playback and rendering for editing. I don't know how extensive you're going to get in your editing with iMovie...
Hope that helped.

Combine 4 angle shots into 1 video clip

First of all, I am very much a novice in video editing and have yet to try Final Cut Pro X.

That's also known as 'Brady Bunch Effect', named after a TV-show's intro, showing 9 people in 9 'frames':
• get familiar with the crop and transform tools of FCPX:
http://help.apple.com/finalcutpro/mac/10.0.6/?lang=en-us#verfc8a4713
• in your case, stack (=not in a row, but over each other) the 4 clips into the timeline
• resize and replace each clip to any position
Suggestion: aside plain 'grab'n drag', the Info board allows numerical input - which gives each 'frame' its precise same size and position…

Can i import iDVD video clips to my iTunes library?

i created a video clip of a music video from a movie and i want to transfer it to my iTunes library. is this possible? if so, how do i do this?
-thanks

Assuming it isn't copy protected yes. It's possible. Look into EyeTv products from a company called Elgato. And I believe Apple TV can do this as well.

Roxio also offers software solutions to accomplish your objective. And so do a number of others like:

How can I get a video clip made in a movie into another movie?

We created the video clips directly as a new movie. Now I want to combine them

Export to camera roll, then import into the new movie.

How to create HD Video for Web

After watching HD movie trailers on the Apple Web site I was wondering if anyone has information on how I can create 480P Video clips of my own work for my website? At the moment, I use compressor and the settings for Large DSL. It's good, but I'd like to basically copy the apple site, and give viewers the option of watching my work in HD if they want to.

I agree with Mr. Wolsky's advice for YouTube. However, I get the feeling sampan would rather have small file sizes for quick upload rather than high quality.
Without Compressor, it seems the smallest file can be generated using Share->Apple Devices... and selecting the iPhone option. If you want smaller than that you need Compressor unless you have another non-Apple compression tool that could be used to further compress the output.

DVD SP4 resizes a video clip

Hi all,
I've created a video clip at custom size of 720x320 to use in DVD menu. I've
applied it to
drop zone. To my surprise it didn't fit into the menu design. The clip's info in
DVD SP has
shown a size of 720x536 (it's a PAL project), so DVD SP has resized the clip to
the PAL native
size automatically! Does anybody know if there is a way to prevent DVD SP of
doing that?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Audrey - welcome to the discussions.
Try re-sizing that drop zone - DVDSP should maintain the correct aspect ratio for the clip unless you go wildly out of the normal range, in which case it will clip the edges.
The other obvious win would be to composite the entire menu background using FCP or Motion or After Effects and get the footage exactly as you want it before bringing it in to DVDSP.
But no - I don't think you can prevent DVDSP behaving in the way it did for you.

DVD Player video clips--how to save to desktop?

I am in DVD Player, watching a non-copyrighted movie I made in iMovie.
I wanted to create a video clip from it, so I went into Controls>New Video Clips and created a clip. I then went to Window>Video Clips and found my clip there, all safe and sound.
But now I want to save it to my desktop so I can work with it (like turning it into a QT movie), but I can't figure out how to do that. Thanks for your help!

But capturing a clip--meaning several seconds of elapsed time in moving-picure form--that is not possible.
You can use video screenshot applicaitons to copy selected segments of the playing DVD in DVD Player. Two that I use are Snap Pro x and Screenflick. There are many others which you can consider by going to MacUpdate.com and searching for "screen video".

When I go to create a new project in imovie using the iPhone 5, I am not able to see any of my video clips or photos that are saved on the device.

When you move or copy the compound clips with their events into an external drive all the events should be there. Not clear on why you want to move them into a single event. You can drag and drop from one event to another.
Why are you using compound clips? You can simply copy the project from each machine with used media onto the external drive and that should do it.

How can I email a video clip I downloaded into my iPhoto library to my friends? I tried creating an email and attaching the clip but there is no sound and no picture when the 5 minute attachment "plays." How can I file= export it to them from iPhoto?

Have them install Quicktime on their PC's from Apple's website, that's the easiest fix.

Is there a way to create playlist of video clips?

I use video clips extensively in presentations and workshops. I have dozens of places in movies that I own in iTunes where I want to play 30 seconds to a minute of a movie as an example of a behavior or situation. I manage this now with a manual list with the title, start place and how long to let it run.
The problem is that this is a carbon based system. I have to keep my movies queued to that place or remember to put it back there after I use it or watch the movie- something that is 50/50 at best. I would love a way to either tell itunes or to find a 3rd part program that I could create a "playlist" of titles with start and stop times so that I could just queue them based on the topic for the day. Not worried about IP rights here- this is not a commercial showing for money.
Ideas anyone?
Thanks

Is there a way to create still jpegs from video clips in iMovie?

I shot some video on Christmas day and imported them to iMovie 9.
I want to creat some jpegs from the video clips and print them as photos.
Is there a way to create a jpeg from a video clip and save the file?
Thanks for the info!
Len

Here is a method for extracting a still from iMovie 09.
Are you working in iMovie and realize that certain frames in the movie would be perfect as photographs? Here is how to extract them...
*To get a still frame from an Event*, right-click on the frame and select "Add Still Frame to Project". The still will be added to the end of the current project. Right click on the still frame in the project and select "Reveal in Finder". You will see a jpeg file that is highlighted. Drag this jpeg file in the finder to the iPhoto icon on your dock.
*If you want a still from a project*, rather than an event, the process is similar, except you right-click on the frame and select "Add Freeze Frame", and it adds the freeze frame at the end of the clip rather than at the end of the project. Right-click/reveal in Finder, drag JPEG to iPhoto icon in dock.
*If you are not using iPhoto*, and just want to save to your desktop, click Reveal in Finder as above, then COPY, then PASTE to desktop.
Hint: If you do not want to clutter up your iMovie Project with stills at the end that you would have to go back and delete, then create a separate iMovie Project just for your stills, and follow the instructions for capturing stills from an Event.
Note: If you do not have a right mouse button, then control-click will work instead of right-click.
