How do I make a person's face unrecognizable?

I edit a medical journal and, though we've only showed images at our site, we're now thinking about putting video up also.
For still images we overlay a black rectangle across a patient's eyes, eyebrows, and enough of the area so that he or she is not recognizable.
Now that we're looking at video, I'm wondering how to do the same with video of a person's face or head and neck. I would like to use a similar overlay when editing video that shows this area of a patient's face. Patients rarely remain in the same place from one frame to the next.
Is there a tool in FCP that will easily do this?

Thank you all for the help. I am glad that there is at least a way to do this. It's not as simple I would have liked, but it's do-able. In addition, I can see that these tools will educate me more about FCP features with which I'd never needed to work.
And, to allay Mr. Cookman's concerns: The authors are physicians who get the prior approval from their patients to use their images and/video for the publication. We simply prefer to disguise the features so they are unrecognizable.
Again, thank you for your kind assistance.

    Add extra empty toolbars if you want to see more of the persona.<br />
    You can create extra toolbars to get extra space via View > Toolbars > Customize<br />
    You have to put something on a toolbar (drag a Space item onto it) before closing the Customize window because empty toolbars are automatically removed.<br />

  • How can I remove a person's face from a photo and then replace the spot with a person's face from another photo?

    How can I remove a person's face from a photo and then replace the spot with a person's face from another photo?

    In Editor, go to the expert tab.
    Open picture B, the one you wish to select the "replacement" face from to add to another picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the face. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the selection to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position the face from picture B to cover the face on A
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and face B on a separate layer

  • How do I make my personal "reminders" seperate from my work Outlook email account?

    I will ask Siri to "Remind me to clean the guest bathroom tub when I get home". I get the reminder, but then  when I get into the office the next morning, they pop up on my Outlook as outdated reminders. Very embarrasing to have one of my coworkers see a peronsal reminder that I set for myself from home.. I am using an iPhone4S and an  iPad 3 - both connected to the same Apple ID. I still want my Outlook Calendar to show me reminders from my work meetings and other invitations from colleagues, though..
    Anybody know how I would go about setting my personal reminders to not go to my Outlook calendar? I'm a bit confiused as to how these are all connected and intertwined. So if someone could explain (in very lamen's terms) how this is connected as well, that would probably help my thinking pathh in terms of iCloud, syncing with other devices and emails..etc
    Thanks a bunch, I know one of you guys will nail this one!
    Additional info: I have my personal email account loaded (gmail), another personal email (local to my website) loaded, and then my outlook email loaded as well.

  • An index of my desktop files appears in firefox. why is it there? does this mean my personal files are accessible from the internet? how can i make sure this goes away and stops?

    This issue can be caused by an old bitmap version of the Helvetica or Geneva font or (bitmap) fonts that Firefox can't display in that size.
    Firefox can't display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size and displays gibberish instead.
    You can test that by zooming out (View > Zoom > Zoom Out, Ctrl -) to make the text smaller.
    Uninstall (remove) all variants of that not working font to make Firefox use another font or see if you can find a True type version that doesn't show the problem.
    There have also been fonts with a Chinese name reported that identify themselves as Helvetica, so check that as well.
    Use this test to see if the Helvetica font is causing it (Copy & Paste the code in the location bar and press Enter):
    <pre><nowiki>data:text/html,
    Helvetica<br><font face="Helvetica" size="25">abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</font><br>
    Helvetica Neue<br><font face="Helvetica Neue" size="25">abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</font>
    </nowiki></pre>
    You should reset the network.http prefs that show user set on the about:config page.<br />
    Not all websites support http pipelining and if they do not then you can have issues with images or other problems.

  • How can I make a book/podcast listening playlist for a blind person?

    How can I make a book/podcast listening playlist for a blind person? How can lots of content be loaded, so that no navigation is required, for hundreds of hours of enjoyment?
    I wanted to create a single playlist with hundreds of hours of books and podcasts for my grandmother who is blind. Then I planned to use something like the app CarTunes which basically makes the touch screen simply a gigantic pause/play button for an already created playlist.  This is perfect for a blind person. The problem: Apple no longer allows you to have a playlist with Audible Books and Podcasts. I have tried; but the podcasts and books are stripped from the playlist. It seems like all podcast and book players require navigation. (How aggravating!?)
    Any help in creating hundreds of hours long spoken (selected between books and podcasts) audio content playlist for a blind person would be much appreciated!!!!

    Well, good news and bad news. I found out how to tell iTunes that all my music videos are, in fact, actual "music videos" and categorize them as such. In the "Get Info" screen for a track, there is a dropdown selector where you can pick the "meta" type, such as "Music Video", "Home Video", "Movie", "TV Show", etc. This allows iTunes and iOS to think they are all music videos and play them in the same list.
    Unfortunately, this is not compatable with my third party device, which is now refusing to play my music videos in a playlist and will only play them one at a time (in a single-track infinite loop no less). Very frustrating!

    Also I cant make a right click on the pad. Is that normal?

    Your first going to have to remove all your personal data off the machine to a external storage drive, do not use TimeMachine when it asks as this will copy the entire drive and is unnecessary at this time (also takes too long).
    You need to drag and drop copy your personal data folders (Music, Pictures, Movies etc) to a external storage drive, once done, unmount and disconnect this drive.
    Most commonly used backup methods
    Next your going to follow the Zero Erase and install method for your OS X version, either 10.6 or 10.7, here
    How to reinstall just OS X or erase/install OS X
    10.7 requires your AppleID and password to install, so make sure to have that ready.
    Once you reboot your into the real setup of OS X, which will require your name etc, so it's now your machine.
    Install your programs, iLife package is only free for the owner of the machine.
    If you have the 10.6 machine specific disks, then it's on there.
    If your using 10.7, then you'll have to purchase it from the App Store.
    Last, return your files from the storage drive, consider setting up a TimeMachine or clone on the external drive.
