How do I turn OFF the Ken Burns effect in slideshows--it defaults there no matter if selected or not.

The Ken Burns zoom and pan appears on every slide in every slide show - despite the Ken Burns box NOT ever being checked.
Any ideas ? Thanks.

Thanks, Leonie. I didn't realize that slideshows had themes - but nevermind. While searching for it, I found the settings control that I had overlooked (or had been hidden) before. It fixed the problem. Appreciate your help.

How do you turn off the Ken Burns effect?

I have students who are using iMovie to create animations. We can't get iMovie to NOT apply the Ken Burns effect to the still images they are making and importing. How do we turn this "feature" off?

Are you talking about iMovie for iOS?
I will assume you are as this is the iOS forum.
You cannot turn this off.
iMovie iOS is not the app you should use to make animations.
I suggest you have a look in the AppStore for a better app, there are a few that are better suited to make video from still frames.
Better yet do it on a computer, you will have many more options.
But again iMovie Mac is not the best app to do this.
QuickTime Pro actually has better importing of image sequences the iMovie.

Can I turn off the Ken Burns effect from all stills at once?

I am using iMovie 09. I am creating a slideshow. I want to turn off the Ken Burns effect from all stills. Is there a way to do this in one operation?
Mary Lou

Yes. Select one still. Open the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool on the middle Toolbar. Set it to FIT (for letterboxing) or to CROP (for it to fill the screen, but cut off the top and bottom). This will turn off Ken Burns.
Now select the photo you just adjusted and EDIT/COPY (or Command-C).
Now click EDIT/SELECT ALL (or Command-A) to select all photos.
Finally, click EDIT/PASTE ADJUSTMENTS/CROP ADJUSTMENTS to apply to all photos.

Selecting photo then clicking "Fit" does NOT turn off the Ken Burns effect.

Trying to wean from iMovieHD. I'm having trouble mastering what seems to be more limited Ken Burns effect functionality in iMovie11. I don't seem to have the range, say, left-to-right, as I did in either iPhoto or in iMovie HD.
So, I figured for now I'd turn off the Ken Burns effect on all the stills in this project. I've tried selecting one photo, getting into the Fit/Crop/KB effect viewer, then clicking Fit, then Done. But the photo keeps the KB effect that had been applied to it.
I tried changing all photos in Preferences and that didn't change anything either.
Hopefully I'm just missing something? Thanks for any help, everybody...

Nevermind. Got it. As I'd hoped, user error.

Turning off the Ken Burns Effect

How do I shut off the Ken Burns Effect to a specific image? I tried using it (I hated it) now I want to go back to just displaying the image. Do I need to delete from the timeline and start over?

In the inspector reset the Crop parameter.

Cant turn off the ken burns effect

The ken burns effect (why is that on by default for crissakes?) cannot be tuned off!!!! I have about 10 images in a movie made up of about 100 still images on which the ken burns effect cannot be turned off. I tried unchecking the ken burns check box & hitting the update button, but it immediately turns itself back on!! Tis is with iMovie 3, and as i said, it affects only the first 10 or so images in this particular project.

I know, sometimes it feels like Ken Burns has a mind of its own. It WILL do what you want, but first you have to figure out its rules.
The most important is that all of the Ken Burns settings, the KB checkbox, zoom, pan and duration are controlled by the LAST imported clip you made, or a previously-imported clip you clicked on. THAT's what sets the default setting for your next import(s). (A very nice feature, by the way, for it lets you apply the Ken Burns settings of one clip to the next photos you import. You don't have to reconfigure settings each time.)
That also means that when you uncheck the KB checkbox that won't "stick". When you click on some other clip it may change.
So when updating an existing clip, the trick is to select the clip, THEN adjust the Ken Burns settings, THEN Update the clip.
A complicating factor is that previously-imported photos to which special effects or other editing has been applied are no longer considered Ken Burns clips, so clicking on them doesn't have the same result.
So pay close attention to what you click on, and even closer attention to whether or not there is a clip selected or an image selected in the Photos pane selected. iMovie will select a photo on its own when you haven't selected something.
It works like you want, but first you have to see that what it does is you want.

How can I turn off the Moving/Zoom effect on my photod?

How do I turn this effect off?
My iMovie version is 10.0.6

Hello Victor,
What you are referring to is the Ken Burns effect. To turn that off, take a look at the article below and change the view from Ken Burns to either Cropped to Fill or Fit and it will not do the zoom in and out that you are referring to.

How do i turn off the feature that browses album art work in landscape view?

How do I turn off the feature that browses album art work in landscape view? My videos will not play full screen since I updated my phone to iOS 7.1.

I don't believe that feature can be turned off.
I'm not experiencing any problem with full-screen video play on IOS 7.1 on an iPhone 5.

HT1430 How do I turn off the data when I am not in a WiFi location? I noticed that I am using data when the phone is "on" and I am not in a WiFi situation, but not on the internet. So, how do I turn off the data?

How can I turn off the LTE data when I am someplace where there is not WiFi and I do not want my LTE running up a bill? I have tracked my usage and realize that the LTE is being used even when I am not using it, just because the phone is turned on.

Merely being on should not use any data. You must have something running - something using push notifications, or push email, prhaps?
So, you can either track down what is using the data and change it, or you could go in and disaple cellular data in your settings.
One other thing to check is
Settings -> General -> About -> Diagnostic and Usage data -> set it to "Don't Send"
Settings -> Restrictions -> Location Services -> System Services -> turn all these "OFF" (this will not affect how you use your phone at all, but will stop any outgoing location information being sent periodically back to Apple).

Can I turn the Ken Burn Effect off when using the iMovie app on my iPod touch 5th generation?

I have an iPod touch 5th generation and I'm trying to make a movie using the iMovie app. When I put an image on there it moves from side to side and zooms in and out. I believe this is called the "Ken Burn Effect". Is there any way that I can turn the Ken Burn Effect off without having to adjust the image position and zoom level to be the same for the start and end points?

Hello MisfitxCaleb
Unfortunately, the Ken Burns Effect cannot be turned off in iMovie for iOS. Like you mentioned above, having the photo at the same start and end point is the best way to make it appear as if it isn't moving/zooming.

When playing back stills, how do I turn off the G..D...n zoom?

When playing back stills in imovie, how do I turn off the G..D...n zoom? I just want it to show stills, STILL, zoom-effects do not go well with a serie of meditative fotos of sculptures.... thank you. Anyone?

Hi
It's called Ken-Burns effect.
Click on one photo in Project.
Then You see a small cogg wheel like symbol
- click on it and a menu opens where at bottom You can
- select Crop/Ken-Burns/Rotation - select it
Now in Viewer/Canvas at top set Size (Adjusted) from Adjust/Crop/Ken Burns menu - now the picture will show in full and no zoom.
As You see - there is a linguistic barrier when not having an English version of iM.

In 8.1.2 i have un checked the Ken BUrns effect in some individual slides. Sometimes it turns itself back on. At first I thought I'd made the mistake myself, but it has happend many times.

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.
