How do I apply a desaturation filter across entire timeline?

I'm wondering how to apply a desaturation filter across the entire timeline of a short film I've built without having to drag and drop the filter into every clip (there are many). Is it as simple as copy/paste, because I tried that and it didn't seem to work.
Thanks in advance for your answers.

A couple of ways to do it:
1.  Apply the filter to one clip and adjust as needed.  Copy the clip (Command c).  Select (highlight) all other clips to which you want to apply the filter, right-click on one and select "Paste Attributes."  When the Paste Attributes window opens, click the Filters box on the Video side.
2. Apply the filter to one clip then adjust as needed in the Viewer window's Filter tab.  In the Timeline, select (highlight) all other clips to which you want to apply the filter.  Drag the filter from the clip in the Viewer to the highlighted clips in the Timeline.

  • How do I apply the blur filter to all my layers at the same time?

    Hi I'm working on a background for a web page and I want to try how different filters are going to affect all the layers. Is it possible to apply a filter to all the layers without flattening the file first? Thanks very much,
    Cathy

    Thanks very much , that's really helpful,Cathy

    Hello!
    There is no need to flatten the file, but you can create a layer that merges all the content of the image, and apply the filter on that layer.
    Target the topmost layer, by holding the Option and . (period) keys, then create a merged copy by holding down Command Shift Option E.

  • How do I apply AUTO COLOR to an entire 2-hour .mov video?

    How do I apply AUTO COLOR to an entire 2-hour .mov video, please?

    Hi,
    Image > Auto Color results can be achieved by setting the Auto options of  Curves.
    1. Open .mov file in Photoshop CS6
    2. Click on the Curves icon in the Adjustments panel.
    3. Opt/Alt click on [Auto] button.
    4. Set Algorithms radio button to "Find Dark & Light Colors", then click [OK].
       - (My notes indicate that "Snap Neutral Midtones" should be ON also, but I'm not seeing that to be true.)
    Result: The Curves adjustment layer that uses the same algorithms as Auto Color is applied to the entire clip.
    The Auto Image adjustments can  be accessed via the Curves' Auto options:
    Image > Auto Levels =  Enhance Per Channel Contrast algorithm
    Image > Auto Contrast =  Enhance Monochromatic Contrast algorithm
    Image > Auto Color = Find Dark & Light Colors + Snap Neutral Midtones ON
    Hope that helps!

  • How can I apply an image filter to an entire Applet?

    Hey there,
    I was wondering, is it possible to apply an image filter of sorts to an entire applet rather than to images? I'm writing a little game in java for a university project and basically I'm only using functions like drawrect and drawpolygon etc, and I want to apply fairly simple filters like blur etc. Is there any way I can achieve this kind of effect with the draw functions?
    Thanks

    You might do better in the 2-D or Swing forums.
    I don't have an answer, but it's an intriging problem. Basically you need to get all the components to paint themselves into the graphics context of an offscreen buffer, then apply the transformation, then paint the buffer onto the screen.
    (Some hackery must be involved though. For instance blurring, by definition, means that components will have an onscreen appearance outside their bounds. So you are sort of fighting against Swing's painting mechanism - if a portion of your applet, close to but outside the bounds of a particular component, becomes visible that component will have to redraw itself, although Swing won't know that.)

  • Applying window dub filter across multiple clips

    I know how to apply the window dub filter to a single clip--but suppose I want to apply it across clips? Is it possible? In the past I've rendered one single Quicktime file of the entire project, re-imported it, and made the window dub from that. In this case I will have two hour-long captures, and I'd really prefer to avoid having to make a temporary two-hour-long Quicktime file just to make a window dub. Surely there is some way to "join" the separate clips on the timeline so that the window dub filter continues straight through to the end of the project...?
    Thanks,
    Steve S.

    Gah...I completely misread the post. Bonehead.
    Thanks for covering Kyle...great suggestion. I was just in NY...great city.

  • How do I Apply a Quartz Filter Automatically to PDF Scan Using Preview

    Hi,
    Question: is there a 1-step process to scan to PDF and create reasonable file sizes.
    I've found discussions on this, but no conclusive answer that someone has actually tested and used.
    PROBLEM: Scanned PDFs are large
    SOLUTION: use a quartz filter to reduce size.
    The problem with this approach is that its a two step process
    1. scan the file using preview (Import from scanner)
    2. "Save As" with a filter applied to reduce size.
    What I'm looking for is someone that's got this down to a 1-step process using only built-in tools of 10.6.
    Thank you!

    Thank you for taking the time to reply - but not entirely true.
    My use case for smaller files is sending them via email. You are correct that size on the local file system should not be (and is not) an issue.
    Let me clarify why this is a 2-step process (for me) at the moment.
    When you use preview (I've been unsuccessful with Image Capture and don't know it would make a difference) and hit scan, the document IS saved. You can then immediately quit preview and your document is still at the save location you specify. Hence this would be a 1-step process.
    The additional step I need to do is "Save As" so I can invoke the quartz filter I created that reduces the PDF by about 80% in size with no visible loss of integrity.
    I would like this filter to get automatically applied when the document is first scanned - something I'm starting to think is not possible.
    I've gotten partial results by adjusting DPI and other factors of the initial scan, but not the reduction in size I can get by applying the filter.

  • How do you apply an EQ filter to multiple clips at once?

    i need to EQ a VO and rather than apply the filter to each clip serparately, is there a way to apply one filter to multiple clips at once?
    thanks
    carl

    apply your eq effect to one of the clips and adjust settings as required, then select every other clip that you want to apply this eq to, and then drag and drop the effect (from the viewer) onto one of those selected clips ... it will apply to all those selected.
    another way, if its the only effect on the clip, would be to apply and adjust the effect, select the clip with the applied effect and press cmd-c to copy, then select all the other clips you want to add the eq to and press opt-v to paste attributes ... in the window select audio filters (only)

  • How can I apply the same filter to multiple inboxes?

    I am looking at transitioning from Outlook to Thunderbird -- mostly for the Google calendar integration.
    The one thing I am having problems with is the filters. I have multiple email addresses and I would like to be able to apply one filter to all of the email addresses. Ie: I get an email from Bob sent to me on my email address 1 and the email goes to bob's folder. Then I get an email from Bob on my email address 2.
    I would like to have the same rule to be effective for both of my email addresses so if bob uses either email address, the mail goes to bob's folder.
    Right now it appears that I have to create a unique filter if I get email from 'bob' on email address 1 vs email address 2. Am I missing something?

    Nope. Thunderbird's filters are specific to accounts.
    You could set them up in one account, then copy that account's ''msgFilterRules.dat'' file to your other accounts.

  • How do you apply the same filter to more clips simultaneously?

    I am trying to color correct a group of sequential clips and I was wondering if there is a way to apply the filter as if the clips were one single clip, without first exporting them.
    Thank you for the help.

    If you want to make the same color correction to multiple clips. color correct the first clip.
    copy the clip
    In the timeline highlight all the other clips you want the same color correction to be placed on.
    Control-click a highlighted clip
    Select paste attributes
    check the filters box, hit okay

  • How can I apply a database change across many instances concurrently?

    In support of a nationwide imaging application that will place HP UNIX servers housing Oracle instances in over 100 offices across the country, we're looking for the most efficient way to apply (distribute, execute, and validate) our database releases to all Oracle instances on the same day. Given a limited number of DBAs (3 or 4) and such a large number of instances located throughout the country, an automated solution is mandatory. Is there a tool or methodology available to handle this task?
    Assumptions: the database structure across all Oracle instances will be identical and each database release (series of SQL scripts) will be consistent across all instances.
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for your response. We're looking for a solution that will allow us to apply changes to the database structures (tables, indexes, procedures, privileges, tablespaces, etc...) via DDL without changing the underlying data. Each of the sites we'll need maintain will have their own unique data. Replicating the data is not an option. We are in search of a solution that allows us to apply a database structure change across many sites at one time without updating the underlying data.

  • Need to apply a video filter to entire sequence...

    Hey gang-
    I'd really like to apply some filters (such as some color correctors and such) to an entire sequence. Same filter on all video. Copy and paste seems like a terrible waste of time, and short of exporting it and "flattening" it to it's own quicktime, I don't know how.
    Thanks in advance....

    Many ways:
    1. Do it for one, then use the Select All Tracks Forward button (one of the forward arrows in the toolbar next to the audio meters) and drag the name of the filter from the Filters tab in the first clip onto the selected clips.
    2. Do it for one clip, then copy the clip. Select all the others, then ctrl-click and go to Paste Attributes. Then select Filters.
    3. Create a new sequence, then drag the old sequence into the new one. This will nest the sequence. Apply the color correction to the nested clip. This is probably the most flexible as it is much easier to make changes to the filters later on.

  • Can I apply proc amp filter to entire sequence like in Avid land?

    Was up against a white sky and dark skinned people.  Of course I exposed for the skintones,
    so now I'm stuck with non-broadcast safe white levels.  When in Avid land I remember being able to
    create a new video track and apply the proc amp filter there.  Is this somehow possible in FCP 6?
    Yes, it's for air, and yes, I know broadcasters have limiters.  Any suggestions?

    Nesting the Sequence will allow you to apply a filter to eveything at once.
    Another way, do one clip and adjust the filter to your taste. Right click that clip on the Timeline and copy it.
    Highlight all other clips, right click and choose "Paste Attributes > Filters" That will apply the same setting to all the others and you can still tweak individual shots if they don't look quite right.

  • How do I apply a rule to an entire mailing list in Mail?

    I have created several mailing lists, and I want all mail coming from anyone in these lists to go to a folder... how do I do that, besides entering emails individually? Is there a way?

    That's the thing. I have the group in my Address Book. How do I select it though?
    That window just allows me to put in email addresses... and nothing shows up when I start writing the groups name. What am I doing wrong?
    Go easy on me, I'm not even a one week old Mac user...

  • How do you apply the school proxy settings to the ipad to filter website searches?

    How do you apply the school proxy settings to the ipad to filter website searches?

    Hi Stebop1987,
    You will want to apply a configuration profile with Global HTTP proxy settings to your proxy server. Use Apple Configurator or an MDM to deploy the configuration profile to your fleet of iPads. I recommend you contact your web filter provider for detials on what proxy details to enter in the configuration profile (type, server, port, username, password).
    Hope this helps!
