Green screen video resizing/moving up/down/left /right on background shot

When using green screen in Imovie is it possible to re position your green screen footage on the background ie:- up/down/left/right and also resize ?
many thanks for any help on this.

I haven't found any, though one can use crop or ken burns effects. I am sure there is a trick, like exporting the green screen video into keynote or something, but I haven't found a way in iMovie.

  • Green screen videos in PowerPoint

    is there any way to work with green screen videos in PP2010 or 13?
    like make background transparent or replace with static image etc?

    Hi,
    Do you want to use the green screen videos as background for your slides? If it is, please do the following:
    1.In Normal view, click the slide in which you want to embed a video.
    2.On the Insert tab, in the Media group, click the arrow under Video, and then click Video from file.
    3.In the Insert Video dialog box, locate and click the video that you want to embed, and then click Insert.
    4.On the slide, select the corner sizing handles of the video frame, and then drag each so that you cover the slide with the video frame.

  • Best settings for Green Screen Video with Canon Mark iii

    HI
    What are the ideal camera settings for Green screen video.
    Iso?
    aperature?
    Depth of field settings (best to have the green screen a bit out of focus?)
    Any other camera settings would be helpful.
    Thanks
    Rowby

    Hi Rowby!
    Thanks so much for writing in about green screen shooting with the EOS 5D Mark III camera.  Green screen shooting can come down to some crucial elements and how well you handle the camera and the lighting.  
    Arguably the most important thing is to have excellent lighting on the screen.  Without this, the keys used to replace the green screen will not be accurate.  So hopefully you have a good set of lights you will be using to actually light the physical screen. 
    With regards to ISO, shoot as low as possible.  We suggest that you stick in the ISO 200-400 range where possible.  With good, high key, proper lighting on the screen this shouldn't be an issue. 
    Aperture should actually be in the higher end of the range, you would want to stick to apertures around f/8 and above.  Again, with adequate lighting this shouldn't be out of reach.  This is so the green screen is more in focus, versus having it out of focus, which would not yield successful results. 
    Use an appropriate lens to the subject, for example if you are doing wide shots- use only the focal length needed for the shoot and no wider.  For head shots, close ups- use a lens that will get you close. 
    Following these suggestions should give you some pretty good results.  Remember, if this is your first attempt don't be discouraged, green screen shooting can be difficult to accomplish. 
    We wish you the best of luck in your endeavor!

  • Green screen videos with sound.

    Videos are showing only a green screen with the sound.  I need to be able to see the videos.  This happens on training videos and in FB.  I was able to see them at first now I can see the videos, I can only here the sound.

  • Marking green screen video to know where to place background images

    My students want to create short green screen movies using a number of background photos that will change as they talk about their topic. How can they mark their green screen video so they will know where to place each photo?  We are using iMovie 11.  Thanks

    If that's the case.  You don't need green screen at all.
    You can shoot the students framed in such a way as to allow room for the photos and then use Picture in Picture.
    Here's a how-to from the MacMost site.  It's for iMovie '09 but is essentially the same for iMovie '11.

    After the new update of the latest iOS, I noticed a yellowish color on the sides of my iPhone 5 screen (Top,Down,Left,Right). Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank You.

    It is highly unlikely that any iOS update could cause this.
    Try a restore as new, if the problem persists, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

    Hi, how to use touch pad (thinkPad T61) to scroll pages up/down, left/right? do I need any drivers?

    Hi daneeo, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community!
    In the Control Panel for your Mouse there should be an UltraNav tab. Under that tab are all the settings for the touchpad. Check to make sure scrolling is enabled.
    If you do not see an UltraNav tab in the Mouse Control Panel, download and install the UltraNav driver and utility:

  • Display screen moves up/down & left/right

    I am using a Cinema display on a G5 and when I move my mouse around the screen the screen shifts by several pixels to the left/right/top/or bottom depending on which way I am moving the mouse. It is as if the screen does not fit completely within the display. Right now my resolution is set to: 1680x1050.
    Its a strange problem that is really more distracting than anything else. Any ideas regarding what I can do to fix this?
    many thanks,
    Zach

    Open the Universal Access pane of System Preferences and turn off the Zoom option in the Seeing tab.

  • How do I superimpose graphic in EDITED green screen video?

    I know that I can throw a graphic in my project and then take a video from the event library and drop it over, choosing green screen in contextual menu. What I'm having a MAJOR issue with is how do it with an EDITED video. It appears that once I combine the graphic and unedited video, I can no longer cut/edit it once it's added in the project and I obiously can't do that in the event library either, so what are my options?
    Essentially I have two projects saved (neither avaible in the event library because the video has been edited and the graphic cannot exist in the event library). IS IT POSSIBLE to combine the two so that the graphic becomes the green screen background? Because if it is, I can't figure it out and so far, from my online search, neither can anyone else.

  • Green Screen Video not working audio working

    Hey everyone I just installed imovie 09 and I'm having issues with the green screen effect. I know it's probably one button that I can't find, but never the less I need some help. I followed the instructions to the T to use the effect and I even made a green back drop. The problem is when I overlay that clip on top of the background clip the video goes bye bye, but I can still hear all the audio from the clip. Can someone help?

    Have you turned on Advanced Tools in iMovie Preferences?
    When you drag and drop your greenscreen footage onto your background video (or photo), do you get a pop-up contextual menu that lets you choose green screen?

  • Green screen video work flow. Premiere or AE?

    Hi all. I have a TON of green screen footage that i need to slice together in quick cuts between one clip to the next. but I want to animate the transitions, have one green screen shot fly in from the back, and the next fly in from the top, etc.
    I haven't managed to figure out the best work flow for this - should I clip the footage in Premiere first, then export every single clip to AE? Or does AE have some trimming abilities?
    Thanks in advance for your help

  • Can Final Cut Express 3.5 work with green screen video?

    Forgive my lack of technical terms but I am interested in my next FCE project being a bit more technical with some animations done in front of a green screen. Can FCE "erase" the green so I can overlay it to another background and or movie?
    Cheers,

    Hi Lori.
    In case you need some more practical advice:-
    FCE has several different filters built in for Green and Blue Screen work.
    FCE can also be used for animation and compositing.
