How do I create a scrolling slideshow in iMovie?

So I know how to make a basic slideshow in iMovie, but I'd like to create a "scrolling/sliding" slideshow (see link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXit8kxCCTg). That video uses videos, however, I'm using still pictures. The pictures can all just be side by side too, they don't have to stack like one on top of the other (I'll edit all my photos before hand to make them the same height). I'm using iMovie '11. I'll probably have 150-300 pictures all together. I'd also love to add a timeline to the bottom of the pictures to scroll with the pictures...should I just add that in to each individual picture before hand, and then put it all into iMovie, or can I do it all in iMovie? Also, towards the end of that youtube video, it all starts scrolling backwards....is there a way to do this???
Basically, I'd like to create a scrolling picture timeline with continuous text scrolling across the bottom that I can also play in reverse. Is this even possible in iMovie? Any help with this would be GREATLY appreciated. This is time sensitive. I really need to know how to do this by Friday. THANKS!!!!!

I agree with John that you could do this in Final Cut Pro X and Motion, but there is probably a plugin that you can purchase that would do the hard work in Motion for you.
I think it might be technically possible to do this in Motion and export out in a file that iMovie can import, but in the video example, there is a lot more going on such as multicam syncing that would require Final Cut Pro X. Motion's strength is not to use it as a video editor. It is best used as a way to create a special effect that you can then use in a FCPX project.  (just my opinion)
Here are some example of FCPX plugins. There are hundreds more.

  • How do you create a scrolling banner in Dreamweaver CS4?

    How do you create a scrolling banner/marquee in DreamWeaver 4?  I can't find anything about scrolling banners in the documentation or in the several books I've searched.  Thanks.

    Dreameaver can't create something like that out of the box, you need to use some type of script for the 'scrolling' to work.
    This is pretty good, with lots of variations:

    You may find something listed here that may give you an idea:

    or go over to www.jquery.com  (that's one of the popular frameworks being used at the moment for image slidehows/banners/galleries etc).

  • How can I create a scrolling effect where when the user scrolls down the image will blur out?

    How can I create a scrolling effect where when the user scrolls down the image will blur out?

    Hi there,
    You can create a scroll motion where the image will fade out on scrolling, you need to use the Opacity tab under Scroll Effects Panel.
    If you particularly need the image to be blur out, then you need to edit that image in any image editing program and make one copy of that image as blurred, then place both images (actual and blurred) on that page and use scroll motion or fade option to replace images.

    How do I create a DVD from an iMovie '08 Project? I followed the directions in the help section but when I open iDVD, my project is "grayed out" and I cannot open it in iDVD.

    In general, in imovie Share to Media Browser or Share to iTunes.
    Then open iDVD. Open the Media Browser in iDVD (at bottom right of window). Navigate to your movies and you should see the movie you made. Drag it in to the iDVD project.

  • FAQ: How can I create a scrolling gallery of images?

    You can use Flash Catalyst to create galleries, for example a scrolling list of thumbnails that display larger images when clicked. Here are some tutorials that explain how:
    Create a photo gallery (using list interactions), on the FlashCats blog
    Create a data list component -- Don't let the title scare you, a "data list" is a really powerful component to get to know better; it enables creation of very creative visual things like galleries. When you need repeating items, consider using a data list.

  • FAQ: How do I create a scrolling panel in Flash Catalyst?

    A common challenge in web design is finding space in the available window to display all of the necessary content. One solution is to create scrolling panels. A panel creates a well-defined container for content in the user interface. By adding scrolling content and a scroll bar, you can place a large amount of information in a limited space. To create a scrolling panel in Flash Catalyst, you need:
    An object to define the panel area, such as a rectangle shape (optional)
    Scrolling content, such as a long block of text or a series of images (required)
    A scroll bar used to scroll the content (recommended)
    Follow these steps in Flash Catalyst Help to create a scrolling panel:
    Create a scroll panel component
    There are also video tutorials showing examples of different scrolling panels:

    Create a scrolling text panel in Flash Catalyst, by Terry White

  • How do I create dynamic scrolling text in Flash CS5?

    Hi everyone,
    I am a complete newbie to Flash. I'm tyring to build a scrolling text box that automatically scrolls. On mouse over, I want the scrolling to stop so users can click on an item in the text box. All of the items will be tied to external hyperlinks. I want to populate the text box with an external file. I've done some searches on Adobe, but haven't found anything that takes me through the whole process.
    I have the complete Adobe Master Collection. So if this is easier in Flash Catalyst, let me know. I know how to buid a manual scroll box in Flash Catalyst. Could I export this to and add the auto-scrolling?
    Remember, I'm a complete newbie.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Thanks again Kglad,
    I really have no preference of Action Script since I don't have any significant experience with either one.
    I'll keep doing searches to see if I can get the information I need.
    Have a great holiday.

  • How do I create a DVD slideshow

    Hello! I would like to create a DVD slideshow with pictures from over the year. I tried opening IDVD but I got an alrert message saying I wouldn't be able to burn my slideshow to a DVD on my system. Is there a way to use IPhoto for this project?
    My friend created one in 5 minutes using a program on Vista Windows. I don't know why I am having a such a hard time with this. I thought Mac was supposed to be easy for this type of thing. I hope you can help me! Thank you!

    Thank you for sharing your system configuration with us. You are more than up to speed on your apple laptop. There really shouldn't be any issues here.
    But I guess that's why we have these forums, right?
    There is a difference between making a slideshow for iDvd as opposed to sending it over the internet. The latter will normally deal in significantly reduced file sizes.
    To start with your question about emailing images or rather slideshows.... I'm not at all surprised your mac is saying it's too large to email. Sending high res images over the internet will slow downloads of said image/s on the receiving end to a crawl. Unless you have G-Mail, most standard e-mail accounts will max out at about 10 MB, not to mention bandwidth limitations. That's not a whole lot of working room when sending video (as in a QT movie) or slideshows of any significant length nor high quality images. You must take every effort to keep the slideshow very short and sweet. A few images, moderately sized tends to work rather well over the internet depending on the type of connection. Hopefully you have high speed cable or DSL (because that's what it will take unless unless the person receiving the email is into waiting a few hours for a typical 56K modem).
    I believe iPhoto allows you to make such a slideshow (targeted specifically for emails) and to vary its size when actually sending the email. There's an option on the bottom lower right of the email you are composing to send it as a small file size, medium, or Actual size. Actual sizes will slow things down a bit. You may also want to post this very same question to the iPhoto Forum or iWeb (or both) for more detailed info.
    Hope this helps but if not just come on back.

  • How do you create a DVD slideshow in Lightroom 4?

    How do you create a DVD in Lihgtroom 4?

    I'm not sure what you mean by Developer Profile, but you can create a provisioning profile in Xcode 4 from the Organizer. Click the Organizer button in the project window toolbar. Click the Devices button at the top of the Organizer. Select Provisioning Profiles from the left side of the Organizer.
    If you need to create something other than a provisioning profile, you may need to go to Apple's iOS developer center, sign in, and create what you need from there.

  • How to create a photo slideshow in imovie 11

    describe how to create a 200 photo slideshow from the start using imovie 11 with titles, transitions and music and then burn it to a dvd

    iMovie is to edit movies; creating a slideshow is easier in iPhoto. When finished, you can then move it to iMovie or iDVD to create a cool menu/theme and burn it.
    Here is a link to Apple support - I searched for "how to create a slideshow in iPhoto":

  • How do I create a Scrolling table

    Hello: I haven't used Dreamweaver for awhile, but just
    purchased the Education version of Dreamweaver 8 and need some
    advice. What I would like your help with is how to create a
    variable length webpage pane (vertical scroll bars only) that would
    contain a 3 column table. The number of rows loaded into the table
    would change each month.
    I've been able to create and load a 3 column table in DW8,
    but since the page length varies according to the number of entries
    loaded in the table, I loose sight of column headings and other
    page data. What I would like to do is populate a list box that
    would allow users to scroll thru just a few table rows at a time
    thereby keeping the column headings and other data displayed on the
    page.
    Can you point me to some code to accomplish this or to the
    name of the feature(s) I need in the documentation?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    JackGombola
    I would like to see site visitors scroll through this pane to
    learn information about the products/services I will offer and
    provide the opportunity to link to a new page to see relevant
    samples for some, but not all of the entries.

    It's the same method. They are using overflow and height
    setting on the
    content div.
    .dataGridContent {
    overflow:auto;
    width:915px;
    _width:912px;
    height:144px;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #D9D9D9;

  • How do I create a scrolling text banner?

    I need to create a Flash banner. Fairly straight-forward in terms of looks - a long list of services that scrolls from right to left and then loops continuously.
    I'm using Flash MX 2004. So far I've created the text - it comes on from the right and leaves on the left. The problem I've got however is how to make this a continuous, seamless loop. When it goes off on the left I can't figure out how to make it come back on from the right.
    Any suggestions?

  • How do i create infinite scroll on photo gallery

    I want to create an infinite scroll like on tumblr like this website ( Lookbook Theme )

    If the pictures are in your Camera Roll album, just tap the picture to bring up the menu and then tap the trash can.
    If the pictures are in your Photo Library album, you have to remove the pictures from the folder on your computer that you're syncing your iPhone to, then re-sync the iPhone.
