How can I make a video like this in iMovie?

I want to help my friend create a video with her spoken word poem, and I'm pretty proficient at making videos. But I've never worked solely with text before. If anybody could help, that would be awesome. Thank you!
I'm fairly new to iMovie, I used Power Director up until this point.
For some reason it won't let me post the link. But look up, "On Being Creative" By Samuel Cernuto.
Thanks!

To do a step by step instruction on here will take someone a very long time, as you havent really said at what level you are at.
On Youtube there are a lot of animation tutorials for PS. But essentially in this case you are moving that white streak across a few frames at a time.

    I'm using Illustrator CS5

    What's the smartest way to go about doing this? I have a basic understanding of gradients, but I have no idea how to get the gradient line to bend like that, or how to get such a "hard edge" between the light and dark pink.

    I'm sorry
    if I bothering you.

    There are probably 1000's of tutorial about layout in WPF but I have found that the people on this forum have the best handle on how to use WPF.  I am now near a workstation and have the following code example which should get you started. (the example
    is in VB but it is the XAML which is important).
    <Window x:Class="MainWindow"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525" Loaded="Window_Loaded">
    <Window.Resources>
    <Style TargetType="ListBox" x:Key="myListbox" >
    <Setter Property="ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility" Value="Hidden"></Setter>
    <Style.Triggers>
    <Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">
    <Setter Property="ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility" Value="Visible" ></Setter>
    </Trigger>
    </Style.Triggers>
    </Style>
    </Window.Resources>
    <Grid Background="#FF040404">
    <ListBox Style="{StaticResource myListbox }"
    HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="237" Margin="23,46,0,0"
    VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="470"
    ItemsSource="{Binding theList}" Background="Transparent" >
    <ListBox.ItemsPanel>
    <ItemsPanelTemplate>
    <UniformGrid Rows="2"></UniformGrid>
    </ItemsPanelTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemsPanel>
    <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
    <Grid Background="#FF574A4A" Width="150" Height="75" Margin="0,0,10,0" >
    <TextBlock Text="{Binding theCaption}" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Foreground="#FFF5EFEF"></TextBlock>
    </Grid>
    </DataTemplate>
    </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
    </ListBox>
    </Grid>
    </Window>
    Class MainWindow
    Public Property theList As New List(Of theItem)
    Private Sub Window_Loaded(sender As Object, e As RoutedEventArgs)
    For i As Integer = 0 To 5
    Dim ti As New theItem With {.theCaption = "Caption " + i.ToString}
    theList.Add(ti)
    Next
    DataContext = Me
    End Sub
    End Class
    Public Class theItem
    Public Property theCaption As String
    End Class
    The above XAML define a listbox with the properties I mentioned in my previous post.  There is a listbox with an ItemTemplate (define how each item should be displayed) and a definition of how the layout
    should be done (ItemsPanel).  The is also a style which uses datatriggers to show/hide your scrollbar.  If you have questions about what I presented please ask but I would ask that you try it first so that you can see how it looks .
    And I'm sorry for the small font above but this forum editor constantly give me problems.

    how can slow-motion iphone6 video be exported to imovie on an iMac and retain its slow motion effect ?

    thx, i can't see where you do that (access the function to slow the motion of a clip).  in the help file it says to 'right click' on the clip to access those functions but when i do i get these optios below (no motion, pan, zoom, pan and zoom).  i want access the speed/duration sliders.
    i would say the function isn't available at all, but i could be looking in the wrong place (although i have tried everything).
    thx for your reply.

  • How hard to make a website like this one ?

    Hi, I hope I don't stress people with my status, but I'm a
    complete newbie with desire to learn. I just figured out we have
    Dreamweaver at school in the Mac studio, adobe version if I recall
    correctly and I wanted to make a band website with it, but couldn't
    understand where to start.
    So first, since I don't want to hire anybody to do it for me,
    I would like to know how hard it would be to make a website like
    this one :
    http://franzferdinand.co.uk/
    In my logic, the first step would be to create a background
    image with the menu drawn in it then add buttons to them to
    navigate. I would then add the content boxes with scroll bars using
    the draw div function.
    My second question, how do I go about learning this software
    ? Are courses given somewhere ?
    Thanks, Francis.

    If you know nothing of web design and development, it's going
    to be hard.
    Not that you can't do it. It's just going to take you a lot
    of time and
    effort to get up to speed on things.

    That isn't how that site was built nor the best way to to it.
    The site in
    question is fairly basic HTML and then styled with a lot of
    well put
    together CSS.
    > My second question, how do I go about learning this
    software ? Are courses
    > given somewhere ?
    Don't learn Dreamweaver. Instead, learn HTML, CSS,
    Javascript, etc. Getting
    a basic understanding of HTML and CSS will then allow you to
    figure out
    Dreamweaver fairly intuitively, plus you'll have a MUCH
    better framework of
    understanding to work from.
    And feel free to ask questions in here!

  • How can I make the skin like rock ?

    How can I make the skin of a dramatic BW image of a Boxer look like peeling lava skin ?  I know that's a funny way to say it, but I want to make him look like rock and lava with hard cracks and such. Anyone have some ideas ?

    I'm sorry Myron, I didn't mean to cause your thread to go in the wrong direction.  I was feeling a bit frisky after a long day.
    Making skin look like something else is not a task I do normally, but if I were to want to experiment I'd probably try things like pasting a section of rock over the top of the skin in question, then set the mixing mode to Luminosity (so that just the luminance of the rock surface is used with the color of the face.  Use masking and partial mixing to help blend it.
    Seek (or capture) rock imagery with the light coming from the same direction, and with a similar level of detail.  That will help make it seem more believable.
    There may be others (I hope) who will chime in with more specific instructions or other tricks o' the trade that they've found to work.
    Best of luck, and please don't be afraid to show your results.

    Have a look at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Uxl9-ktPN8 to get you started.
    For this kind of design (which CAN be designed in Photoshop) you might be better exploring Illustrator.

  • Can Captivate make a movie like this? (Video, Audio, Screen Capture at once)

    I'm looking to create software product demonstrations (web
    sites and PC applications) that are engaging and easy to follow. I
    found this video on YouTube that has features that I really like.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgWTFYKv0U0
    Video (face shot, talking)
    Video shrinks & moves out of the way (see 2:03 in the
    link above)
    Demo a full size webpage while video running (see 2:46)
    Zoom in to a portion of the page while video running (see
    4:13)
    Some folks have told me I need a Mac with ScreenFlow. Only
    problem is, the application doesn't run on a Mac.
    Others have said use a PC with Camtasia. Still others have
    suggested Captivate. No one can give me a firm "Yes! You can do
    that - use this combination of software/hardware."
    If you can help, I would really appreciate it!

    It sounds like you want to take a collection of different

    custom edits and transitions. Adobe After Effects is what we use.
    Amazingly powerful.

    *You also can do this with QuickTime-pro.* But You need the disipline of an angle.
    Quoting:
    Klaus1 writes: As Bengt says, you can do this with Quicktime Pro. Here is how:
    Organize the video clips and/or stills that you want to superimpose on to your main video clip, by having these in separate, individual iMovie projects (no matter how small). It helps if these are in the exact length/time you want later.
    Now start with the clip in your iMovie project on to which you want to superimpose one of more smaller video clips or stills. Lets call it Main Clip. Export this (share) to Quicktime Pro in DV (full quality). make sure it has the same aspect as before (Quicktime tends to default to 4:3. If you want 16:9, read on).
    In Quicktime, with this project open, select File ~ Open File. Select the iMovie file (in your movies folder) of the first clip/still you want superimposed. This will open in its own QT window. Select Edit ~ copy. If it is a movie clip then select all ~ copy (or you will only get one frame!). Switch back to the Main Clip window, and click in the scroll bar where you want the extra clip/still to appear. Choose Edit ~ Add to Movie.
    You can repeat this as many times as you like, if you want to build a 'Video Wall', i.e. have several superimposed clips/stills on the same Main Clip.
    Do not worry that the new clip overlaps or covers up the Main Clip, at this stage.
    Choose Window ~ Show Movie Properties. The Properties Dialogue appears.
    You will see a list of video (and audio) tracks. Track one will be the Main Clip, track 2 your new added (superimposed) clip. Click track 2, then click visual settings. From the Scaled Size pop-op menu, choose percent. Then type 50 into the first box. If Preserve Aspect Ratio is turned on you won't need to type 50 into the second box. You have made the pasted footage appear at one quarter its original size. The inset is now hugging the top-left corner of the Main Clip. If you want, you can type numbers into the Offset Boxes to shove it away from that corner (there are 72 pixels to the inch).
    If your original Main Clip was required in 16:9, unclick (de-select) Preserve Aspect Ratio, and type in the relevant numbers in the two boxes, in Video Track 1.
    PAL (for Europe):
    Standard DV (4:3) 788 x 576
    DV Widescreen (16:9) 1050 x 576
    NTSC (for the USA):
    Standard DV (4:3) 720 x 528
    DV Widescreen (16:9) 874 x 480
    This will not affect video track 2, but if that is also wanted in 16:9 repeat for that track.
    You can superimpose, 3, 4, or more such 'overlaps' on the same clip, and spend a happy afternoon tapping away for each track in the Offset Boxes until you have got them all in the right place! You can even overlap them, if you can remember (or note down - hire a secretary to take notes) which track you want on top etc.
    Save the completed QT file. Import the completed file into a new iMovie project. Import this into the original iMovie project, substituting the old clip you copied to QT as Main Clip for the new fancy clip you have made.
    Have fun!
    END OF QUOTE !
    *My way:* When I started to need more than iMovie could offer I took a look into
    FinalCut Express and counting the sum of all Plug-ins needed and FCE I found out
    that FCE is a real bargin.

  • How can i create a website like this?

    Hello Adobe Community
    I've had this idea in my head for a while, but i cannot think of how to create it.
    I think of creating a website with a very nice layout where you can purchase and submit your own ebooks to sell, and they need to be approved by an admin before it shows up on the website.
    I have been thinking about this for some time but i don't have a clue on how to create a website like this and it must take a very long time.http://puu.sh/5Ki7Q.png
    My idea: You can hover over the ebooks to get more information about them, you can see star rating and feedbacks / comments under the ebooks.
    I need help with getting started on the right track, i don't know very much about Dreamweaver, but i am starting to get good at it. I know HTML and a little CSS.
    I would really appreciate any help i can get.

    Unless you have very strong coding skills with PHP & MySql,  I think you could do most of this with  WordPress and  WordPress plugins for e-commerce, star ratings, lightbox viewer, reviews, etc...
