How do i grab a picture from my footage

i was just asked by my client...
"i need still shots of 2 people in our video"
she is planning to do an advertisment for her stores and wants models and liked the 2 friends i used as actors for the video. She wants me to email her a still shot from the footage of both of them so she can get it okayed by her booses to send to the ad agency. she wants them in a jpeg format or gif even? i dont know. she mentioned jpeg
1) is that possible?
2) if it is, how do i do it?
thanks in advance

There is a very quick and easy way to do this.
First find the shot that you want. Next, make sure that you are in Unlimited RT (so that the quality will be higher). Then enlarge the payback screen. Now open your Grab program: Applications / Utilities folder and select grab selection.
Click from the top left hand corner and just drag the red square around the image you want, then release the mouse. You will hear a camera click sound. Hit Save. It will be saved as a .tiff.
Now reopen the new .tiff and choose save as.... look in that window for the format that you want to save in (.jpeg) and hit OK.
Now you have a .jpeg of the shot you want. It sounds like a lot of steps, but you will see that after you do it once or twice, you will be able to zoom through it.
I have done this many times for my clients and the quality is surprisingly good. Even better if you have a 3CCD camera, which you probably do if you have "clients".
Hope this helps!!

  • How do you remove a picture from a theme?

    Hi all gurus.
    This must be the most silly question so far in the forum but I have to ask again: How do you remove a picture from a theme?
    I uploaded a background picture for the Masthead Function Area but now I want to remove it. Since the correspodning field is blank when you go into the editor you can't erase the picture's URL
    What you can do is to browse to, and choose, a new picture and then erase the URL in the field. The mentioned area is then actually emptied and the color set in the field "Background Color of Masthead Function" is shown.
    But, and here is the problem, when you save the theme the picture is back again! Isn't there the possibility to show the background color, for which there is a field, instead of a picture? Do I really have to upload a picture just containing the color I want to have??? If so, that must be one of the most stupid functionaliteis I have seen in the portal so far, indeed...
    I'm most grateful for every suggestion of how to solve this in a decent way and not the idiotic "replace picture with another picture" way.
    Best regards

    Hi Raghu.
    Unfortunately it didn't help. Their solution with writing "none" in the field is only applicable for those objects where you have a field determening ways of showing the object. There you have the different behaviours like "repeat", "non-repeat" and "none" and there you can write it directly in the field.
    The field of which I am talking doesn't have these options and hence not "none". I still tried it though but it didn't work, the picture was back after saving the theme.
    Best regards

  • How do I snyc the pictures from my old apple ID/icloud on to my new one????

    My apple account was hacked into so I had to change my email on my account. I had tons of pictures saved on that account with icloud, but now that I have a new email address on that account the pictures did not automaticly transfer over. How do I get my pictures from my old account on to the new one please help!!!

    You would have to delete the new account from your phone, sign back into the old account, turn on photo stream, save the photo stream photos to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll), then delete to old account and sign back into the new one again.  (When you delete the account it only deletes it from your phone, not from iCloud.  Your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.  Also, you will only get back photo stream photos added in the last 30 days.  After 30 days photos are deleted from your camera roll even though they remain on any device that already has them.)

  • The computer that I used to sync my Ipad with crashed.  How can I copy the pictures from my Ipad to my new computer?

    The computer that I used to sync my Ipad with crashed.  How can I copy the pictures from my Ipad to my new computer?  When I try to use Picassa to import them I can only see the 'Camera Roll; folder but I have several other folders with hundreds of pictures in them

    To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard
    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • I had to get a new iphone and want to know how to tell if my pictures from my previous phone were backed up on itunes.  when i connect my c even if i'm going from a 4 to a 5s?

    i had to get a new iphone and want to know how to tell if my pictures from my previous phone were backed up on itunes.  when i connect to itunes, does it automatically sync / backup even if i'm going from a 4 w/IOS 6 to a 5S w/IOS 7?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes you can probably delete the 2 incomplete back ups they are unlikely to work.
    However, I'd be inclined to back up to a computer as well and restore from there, if you are changing your phone.

    How do I move a picture from editing in camera raw to photoshop?  When I click "open image" I get a checker board in photochop

    Sindbad. A suggestion, to let us know all the specifics of your machine: go the the help menu, and select System Info...
    Copy the contents, and paste it in an answer there.
    You might want to remove your serial number.
    Thanks to that we will know: the exact version of Photoshop, your memory, where Photoshop is installed, the graphic card and its drivers, and also if you are using third party plug-ins.
    Some other users reported that when launching Photoshop holding down the shift key (this disables the plug-ins), he was able to see the images.
    The solution in that case is to search for updated plug-ins (or to report the plug-in manufacturers that their plug-ins causes issues in Photoshop.

    How do you save a picture from email to the iPhoto?

    Click and hold on the Save button, and a menu appears, listing each attached file’s name along with a Save As button. Select any individual file, and you’ll save just that attachment to disk. But the really nice feature is the final menu item—Add to iPhoto. That’s right; with one button click-and-hold, you can add all of a message’s attached images to iPhoto.

    how do i download a picture from my scanner and put it on photoshop thank you

    You don't "download" anything, and you don't put anything "on Photoshop".
    You save your image in your scanning application using whatever file format supported by Photoshop you want (PSD, TIFF, PNG, JPEG, etc.), and save it in whatever folder on your computer you want.
    Then you use Photoshop to open your image file wherever you put it.
