How can I create a photo shutter effect in FCP?

How do I make an effect like a photo is being take during footage playback. I've done the effect before but when the picture "blinks" I want to see a white flash instead of a black one. Is there a way to change the color to white?

If I'm understanding correctly, use "Dip to color dissolve" with adjustments to the percentage of opacity at the start/end and threshold should do it.
Change the color from default black to white and adjust the length of the transition to simulate the quickness of the flash. Split the clip where you want the effect and add transition, set to 'edit on center'.
Hope it helps

How can I create a video with effects using my ipad?

How can I create a video with effects (sepia, B&W, Negative, oval or any other shape borders) using my ipad? I would Like to keep a higher res and also be able to shrink it down to email or send in a MMS. Or should I just upload it to my PC and mess with it there? Some of the apps I have are very easy to use compared to the learning curve needed for video editing software.
Thanks

Thats the Problem . . . how many apps do I have to try until I find the one I want? I noticed a few will render the video thus losing its original size. When I went to edit it more in iMovie the video was smaller--not good. And what software do you suggest, Templeton, for the PC? I love the apps because they are easy. I dont have hours to mess around on a software to figure out if its something I want. Im looking for simplicity. Maybe Ill get more into it later. I just want to record simple video of my playing the guitar for self analysis and create a short video for family and friends.
Apps:
iMovie
CinemaFXV
VideoFix
Cartoonatic
Video illusion
VidEditor
Software:
Windows Movie maker (wont accept .mov files)
After Effects (Too little time, so much to learn)
Wondershare (Very easy but little choices)
VideoPad (Again. Few choices)

How can I create additional photo library on iPad

Can I create additional photo albums on my new iPad without affecting current photos in the photo app?

This is from the iOS 5.1 iPad album. I'm sure the same is true for iOS 6:
Organizing photos and videos
You can create, rename, and delete albums on iPad to help you organize your photos and videos.
Create an album: When viewing albums, tap Edit, then tap Add. Select photos to add to the new album, then tap Done.
Note: Albums created on iPad aren’t synced back to your computer.
Rename an album Rearrange albums Delete an album
Tap Edit, then select an album.
Tap Edit, then drag up or down. Tap Edit, then tap .
Bottom line: You can certainly create a new album without affecting existing photos.

How can i create a photo book from 2 libraries easily?

This is my situation.
I want to create a photo album of my child for the past year for parents/grandparents etc from the photos on mine AND my wifes macbooks. Before iphoto 9.5 i would simply look at her shared library from my iPhoto and use hers and my photos to make a book.
Now there is no shared library in 9.5, so after doing my homework on how apple wants us to do this now, I started a shared iCloud photostream ('kid' 2013) and invited my wife to it. I started adding photos from my library, and she did the same. All good i thought, but no. Becasue the photo stream only sorts by 'date added' not date taken, and in fact I cannot even see the date the photo was taken in the photostream, it means making a chronological photo book from both our photo libraries has now been made impossible.
Anybody got any other ways to do this?

All good i thought, but no. Becasue the photo stream only sorts by 'date added' not date taken, and in fact I cannot even see the date the photo was taken in the photostream, it means making a chronological photo book from both our photo libraries has now been made impossible.
Create an album, and then select all photos in the Shared Photo Sream and add them to the album. In the album you can see the dates of the photos in the Info panel. Then sort your album by date, and create the Photo Book from the album, not directly from the shared stream.

How can I create a shadow text effect?

How can I add a blur effect to text on a BufferedImage. I am trying to create a shadow text effect. Here is what I have currently.
BufferedImage image = new BufferedImage(500,120,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Rectangle2D Rectangle = new Rectangle2D.Double(0,0,500,120);
Graphics graphics = image.getGraphics();
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) graphics;
g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
g2d.setPaint(Color.white);
g2d.fill(Rectangle);
g2d.draw(Rectangle);
//Shadow text
g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
shadow = new TextLayout("Shadow Text", new Font("Serif", Font.BOLD, 70), g2d.getFontRenderContext());
g2d.setPaint(Color.lightGray);
shadow.draw(g2d, 13, 103);
//Main text
g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
text = new TextLayout("Shadow Text", new Font("Serif", Font.BOLD, 70), g2d.getFontRenderContext());
g2d.setPaint(Color.black);
text.draw(g2d, 10, 100);
I found a blur effect but it affect the whole image not just the shadow. Here is an example.
BufferedImage image = new BufferedImage(500,120,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
Rectangle2D Rectangle = new Rectangle2D.Double(0,0,500,120);
Graphics graphics = image.getGraphics();
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) graphics;
g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
g2d.setPaint(Color.white);
g2d.fill(Rectangle);
g2d.draw(Rectangle);
//Shadow text
g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
shadow = new TextLayout("Shadow Text", new Font("Serif", Font.BOLD, 70), g2d.getFontRenderContext());
g2d.setPaint(Color.lightGray);
shadow.draw(g2d, 13, 103);
Blur filter
float ninth = 1.0f / 9.0f;
float[] kernel = {ninth, ninth, ninth, ninth, ninth, ninth, ninth, ninth, ninth};
biop = new ConvolveOp(new Kernel(3, 3, kernel));
op = (BufferedImageOp) biop;
image = op.filter(image,null);
//Main text
g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
text = new TextLayout("Shadow Text", new Font("Serif", Font.BOLD, 70), g2d.getFontRenderContext());
g2d.setPaint(Color.black);
text.draw(g2d, 10, 100);

I thought I answered that question?!
In your code above, watch out for statement:
image = op.filter(image,null); The resulted buffered image is new, so you are updating the reference held in variable image.
Unfortunately variable g2d is still refering to a graphics object back by the original image, so:
g2d.setPaint(Color.black);
text.draw(g2d, 10, 100);renders on the first buffered image, not the second.
Here's my code again, touched up a bit.

How can i create a Photo Folder that is "secured and private"?

I wanted to create a file that is secured that I can put my private photos and videos that can only be accessed by me. So that when someone using my computer...(I.E....young children) don't have access to.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can't. What you can do is create a separate iPhoto library for those items and store it in a password protected disk image.

How can I capture the photo shutter sound when you take a screen shot

I want to use the Mac's shutter sound that is used when you take a screen shot or take a Photo Booth photo. I tried Audio Hijack but it doen't capture the sound. I figure this audio file must be in the system folder somewhere.

A camera shutter sound can be found in

HT4236 How can you create a photo Album on your iPhone and import that Album onto your computer (in my case a PC)? It appears you can only sync from the computer to the iPhone, which is the opposite direction of what's desired in this case.

It appears that sync'ingis pretty much one way, from the desktop to the device. If you create a folder on the desktop that is synced through iTunes with the iPhone, that folder appears as an Album in Pictures on the device. But on the device you cannot add photos to that synced Album, so there is no way to use the desktop-based Album as an evolving target for new pictures on the phone, unless you do all the additions on the desktop software.
This really isn't "syncing".
Further, if you create a new Album on the iPhone, it doesn't appear in the sync'ed folders on the desktop.
The configuration for this discussion is iTunes 11 on Windows PC, iPhone 4S, and Windows Photo Gallery for picture editing on the PC.
I'd like to have Albums and PC-based Picture Folders truly sync'ed. Am I missing something or is this truly an iTunes Photo Sync'ing deficiency?

The camera roll is not part of the sync process at all.
You should be importing these photos to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera. Youc an organize them on your computer and sync the to the iphone if you wish.
The photos sync from the computer to the iphone is one way.
The iphone mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.

How can I create additional photo libraries on my iPhone4?

How can I create a Tilt-shift effect in Elements 13?

I tried it as I did in Elements 9, but I probably forgot how. It won't work
Anyone?

Thks. I have the Dutch version and although in the Netherlands 'Tilt-shift' is a commonly used term, Adobe Netherlands decided to call it 'kantelen en verschuiven', which is a literal translation (very few will understand).

Can't create new photo streams in Aperture

When I select new photos to add to a photo stream, I am not prompted to create a new photo stream, they are simply sent to the stock photo stream that is already shared between my iPhone and Aperture. How can I create new photo streams in Aperture if the standard method doesn't work for me? What is wrong with my setup that I can't follow the videos of instructions because I don't get a dialog box when I try to share?
Thanks,
Will

Is your Profile signature correct Mac OS X (10.7.5) ? Then you cannot create Shared Photo Streams. They require OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 and Aperture 3.4, see:
Using and troubleshooting shared photo streams.
You can create Shared Photo Streams with:
an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 6
a Mac using OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 with Photo 9.4 or later or Aperture 3.4 or later
a PC using Windows 8, Windows 7, or Vista with the iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed. (iCloud Control Panel 2.1 required with Windows 8.)
If your system is compatible with shared streams, check, if you have enabled shared streams in both the System Preferences and Aperture's Preferences.
