Extending the duration of a still image after applying scaling to it?

I have a still image that I am keyframing to scale down from 100% to 50% over its duration and at the end of the clip I move it to the upper left of the screen. After it moves to the upper left I want it to stay in that spot. What is the best way to do this?
I had my final keyframe on the last frame of the clip. Would I now somehow extend the length of the clip longer?
Thanks.

I suggest Ann's workflow too, but if you have already applied Keyframes to the shorter Duration Still, then extend that Duration, you can then Move the Keyframes to the new Tail/Last Frame. Just remember that that operation will change the timing of the Keyframes by the change in Duration. If that is what you want, then nothing to worry about.
Also, if you have several Effects Keyframed, you can Select all of those Keyframes for each Effect, then drag them all to suit.
Good luck,
Hunt

  • How do you edit the duration of multiple still images?

    FCP X has a default duration for still images when you import them. After importing, how can I edit the duration of multiple clips?
    I've tried selecting them all, control-click and change duration, but nothing changes.
    BTW I want to make them 5 frames each...
    thanks for any help

    Thanks Tom, I've tried that. and nothing happens.
    I presume that I type the 5 in the number sequence thing above the timeline?

  • Need Help Pasting Key Frames from one still image to others, and Changing the duration of multiple still images.

    I'm working on a stop motion project, and I have at least a thousand still images to work with.
    I have adjusted several Key Frame settings on the 1st still image in my project, such as
    Brightness
    Cropping
    Scale
    Position
    I now want to apply these exact settings to hundreds of still images at a time that make up one scene in the project (but not all still images in the entire project).. Is there a way to paste or easily transfer them?
    Also, there are scenes I'm working on in which I want to change the image duration of hundreds of photos at once, but not change to duration of all images in the project, is this possible?
    I've looked at several different web-links, but none of them have what I'm looking for. If you can please help me, I'd be willing to send you $10 through paypal. Knowledge is power; the solution to these problems would save me hours of time. If you don't fully understand my questions I can send you a pictures or a video, pointing out my needs.

    Stan,
    Thanks again for your input.
    When the project is created, I don't recall seeing the preference settings until after the project opens the first time.  In that case if certain media was imported into the project panel but not in the sequence, after the duration was changed, it would be necessary to remove the media from the project panel then re-import again.  If there is a workaround to this please let me know.  It also doesn't appear that creating a new sequence would prevent the re-importing.  Could you confirm?
    Thanks for the link on automating to sequence--I remember that from CS4.
    The application of identical effects to media on the timeline in a sequence was something I had learned back in CS3 or maybe earlier CS4 where the effected, in this case a transition between images was applied then copied then using the paste or (Control V) command, applied to all other stills.  That worked fine but with lots of images, it ends up being a lot of "point and clicks" since the CTI must be moved to each transition insertion point before the paste is applied. 
    I actually thought that I had seen someone select the remainder of the images in the sequence then apply the paste command but I was never able to make that work.  Have you heard of such a short-cut?
    Much thanks again!!

  • How do I change the duration of a still image in iMovie to less than 0.1 second?

    I am creating a movie using iMovie where I need the still images to be 0.05 seconds each or maybe even less., but whenever I select the still images and go to "Clip Adjustments" and under duration change 0.1s to 0.05s and select "Done", iMovie changes the duration back to 0.1s. I'm fairly new to iMovie and I've been messing around with it for quite a while now and still can't figure it out. Could someone help me?

    for stop-motion there are perhaps better tools avail
    istopmotion is a commercial app (starting at 40€ in the AppStore) offering additional tools for the animation master, such as onioning or tilt-shift.

  • Set duration of imported still images down to 1 frame

    Is there a way to import images into FCPX (10.1.1) and set it so the images will be only 1 frame when put on the timeline?  Or to change their duration in the Event viewer after they are imported?  I found the "duration" setting in the editing preferences, but that's in seconds and doesn't do what I want.  For what I'm doing now I want them at 1 frame, but really I'm looking for total control of the length of bulk still images without having to cut each individual one down on the timeline.

    Put them in the timeline. Select them all. Press Control-D. Enter 1 and press return.

  • Change Duration of Multiple Still Images - No Ripple

    New to FCP X -- still trying to figure things out.  I have a bunch of still images that were put into timeline -- all 10 seconds.  I was changing the duration of groups of them within the timeline and everything was going great...timeline would ripple down after shortinging the duration. 
    But for no apparent reason...things changed and now changing the duration only shortens each one but doesn't ripple the rest of the timeline down (see pic).
    Can anyone explain how to fix this?  I've been trying to fix it for awhile now and getting nowhere.  Thanks in advance.

    Hello I tried changing the duration of multiple stills when music was already added and I got this. Is there any way of avoiding this, perhaps by desyncing the audio from the image first perhaps? Thanks

  • Problem: extending the duration of the "clockwork" particle emitter

    Hi,
    I'm trying to extend the "clockwork" emitter's duration. The default is 10 seconds and it won't go beyond that. I clicked and dragged the out point but after 10 sec, it goes blank. I tried extending the duration of all the elements of the particles - by clicking the triangle next to the "clockwork" layer and then extending the duration of each part - but still no luck.
    Seems like I'm trying the most obvious things, but I'm missing something. Can anyone please help?

  • Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop
    Actually, it only looks like it takes up additional space. The file size shown is misleading.  When you migrate an iPhoto library to Photos, both libraries will show the media files using hard links. The actual file content of the image files and videos is shared by hard links:
    See this linked document:   Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support
    You will gain no free storage at all by deleting either the iPhoto Library or the Photos library.  So keep both libraries until you are very sure, that Photos is working well  on your Mac and your iPhoto library has been migrated correctly. Also, check, if you like the workflow in Photos. It is very different from iPhoto and some iPhoto features are not supported.
    There will be no easy way back to iPhoto, if you delete your iPhoto library or the iPhoto application. Apple does not sell it any more.

  • How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?

    How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?
    Before upgrading to the latest version of iMovie last month, I was able to set the duation of all of the stills included in an iMovie project at one time by clicking the apply to all still box in the adjustment pop up. That option is no longer apparent. If it is available I cannot find it, and I have tried several different ways to accomplish it. I have tried the iMovie help section and can find nothing to help.
    Apple, do I really have to adjust close to 500 pictures to a 5 second duration individually???
    REALLY??!!

    ...why wouldnt people want that level of accuracy when animating, especially when working to music at a specific duration?
    Because often people are animating to words or beats in the music.  Music is rarely performed with a computer-precise beat and tempo.  Musicians aren't robots: they swing the beat sometimes.  They use rubato.  They change tempo.  They change time signatures.  As a result, you have to FIND those words and beats.  It's not a situation where you can say, "There!  I've found the duration of one beat!  Now it's easy to find the rest of them!" 
    If you try it, you will be very disappointed.
    Try finding the precise end of a piece of music that fades or ends on a big chord with a ring-out.  You'll see that it's trial-and-error: what's the point where it becomes inaudible?  It depends on how high your speakers are turned up.  You might have them way up, you set an end point for the layer, and then you do a RAM Preview at a more reasonable volume.  You might say, "Hey!  The music ends before the layer ends!"...  but you KNOW you set the layer's out point when the audio file goes silent.
    AE has layer markers that can be used on an audio layer to mark beats, words, etc. They come in very handy.
    I guess it comes down to this: because AE can do so much different stuff, there are very few automated procedures.  Oh, Adobe tries with effects that convert audio levels to keyframes, but they're not 100% reliable... especially on something like a capella choral works.  For true accuracy, you need  find the timings yourself. 
    If you want something simpler, try a different application. But be prepared for lower level of accuracy.

  • Why can't I change the duration of a still frame?

    I am running Final Cut Express 3.5.1
    When I try to change the duration of a still frame it generally snaps back to the existing duration rather than changing. Occasionally it will change but never to the duration I select which is ususlly :20 to :50 of a second. It sticks on a variety of durations between 1:20 and :05. I have tried both altering and rewriting the duration.I have tried restarting as well as all of the following methods:
    1 Changing the duration in the User Preferences > Editing, still duration field.
    2 Ammending the browser duration column .
    3 Double clicking on the still to open it in the viewer and changing the duration field.
    4 Draging the still into the timeline, control clicking and changing the duration in the drop down menu.
    5 I also clicked on the still in the browser > edit > item properties but there was no timing tab available to select (as suggested on another posting.)

    This project is just a short animation so every time I import the stills they are of the wrong duration so I try changing the duration by the other methods described previously, fail to be able to do that, erase everything from the project, restart and start again, initially with the preferences. So there's nothing for the still frames to conflict with. It's not the fact that there is a batch of stills that is the problem either as I keep experimenting with with single or small groups of stills in that context. I've also tried importing a variety of still formats into other projects. This is fairly new software. Could this be an incurable fault?

    Hello dayra. Just plug in your phone then go iTunes "File" -> "Transfer Purchases". If it doesn't work, you can use an iphone to Mac transfer program to help.I personally use this iPhone to Computer Transfer for Mac.It helps me to transfer my music, video, photo, ePub, pdf, Audiobook, Voice memos, Camera roll, ringtone, Podcast, TV Show, SMS, Contact and Call List from iphone to my Mac directly and safely.It works well for me,you can give it a try.

  • Help! Is there a FinalCut application or function where I can uniformly extend the duration of all my stills and cross-dissolves?

    I am working in FinalCut 7.0.3 to build a slideshow from still images that will be projected in a gallery space. I have built a test presentation with still images joined by cross dissolves. All the stills run for 10 seconds and the cross-dissolves for 2 seconds--but the pace is too rapid. Is there a function I can apply to make all the stills and transitions run at an increased duration? Or do I have to piecemeal increase each segment and dissolve? Just will take a long time!

    No way to globally change stills.
    This is what I'd do.
    • fiddle with a few slides in the existing timeline to figure out how long the stills should display and how long the transition should be.
    • create a new sequence
    • delete all the slides from your FCP browser
    • go into FCP User settings and set the default still image duration to the length of time you determined earlier
    • reimport all the slides
    • put them on your new timeline - (they will now have the new duration)
    • go to the Effects tab and find your transition and change the duration to what you determined earlier.
    • right click on the transition name and set it to Default Transition
    • in the timeline, select all the slides the "command" + T. This will apply the default transtion to all the slides.
    Best,
