How do you devide media into clips?

Have not used Final Cut in a while and I'm lost. How do you seperate media into clips?
Thanks

Step 1: Import or capture the media in the proper format so it will match your Sequence settings.  Once media is imported, it is defined as a clip no matter how long its duration.
Step 2: Double click a clip in the Browser to load it into the Viewer.  Set an IN point and an OUT point on the clip in the Viewer for the first section you want to use.
Step 3: Edit the section into the Timeline where you want it to go.
Step 4: repeat step 3 as needed.

  • How do you cut an imovie clip into two clips?

    How do you cut an imovie clip into two clips?  I have a very long clip from which I want to remove the middle (and keep the beginnin and end). 

    There are several ways to do this. Here are a couple.
    1) Drag the long clip into your project. Drag to select the portion you want to remove. Then right-click/Split Clip. This will give you three clips, the first, the last, and the one in the middle that you want to delete. You can select the middle clip and right-click/Delete Selection.
    2) Drag the long clip into your project. Drag to select the frames you want to delete. Then right-click/Delete Selection.

  • How do you add a video clip to a slide show?

    How do you add a video clip to a slide show using elements 12?

    You can import some very short video clips into Photoshop and make gifs.  I can import short (10 second or so) .mvi video clips I've taken with my point and shoot camera.
    Use File ->Import->Video Frames to Layers
    CS3 doesn't recognize .mvi files until you enter *.* in the box, hit load, then find the file you want.
    After the file has been loaded, go to Windows, and check Animation.
    After the Animation bar loads, go to the right side arrow, check Make Frames from Layers.
    Then Save for Web and Devices, and you've got your gif.
    I find it much easier to use the separate software.

  • How do you move a sound clip in the timeline?

    I have not had this problem before. I have put many songs into the timeline, and repositioned them. Today I pulled up a project and attempted to reposition a song to fit in better with the clip, and I'm unable to do so. I can't select the song, or anything else. Obviously I have set or locked up this track, and I can't figure out how to unlock if that is what I have done. I have 6 songs on that track, Audio track 2, and I can't reposition any of them. I can't even remove them from that track. What am I doing wrong?

    Hunt, most of my music files, over 9000 songs, are mostly mp3 files and a few are wma, and because of copyright laws I wouldn't use them in a commercial project I'm working on anyway. When I am working on a project for a client I will generally use higher quality WAV files. This project was being done just to learn some new techniques, gain some more experience with PPCS4, and expand my knowledge with the program. I have this huge number of music files and styles to work with, so I can do a great deal of experimentation to see what different songs can do to the mood of the video.
    As a test, I did put the exact same songs into the timeline on a different audio track. The problem track is audio 2, and I duplicated those songs on audio 3. I did the exact same editing. I faded them in and out the same as before. Split one song into 3 sections had parts of it come in and out over a video section of 9 minutes duration. They are working perfectly. I was just working on one section of that project a half hour ago, and I was still able to select and move each of the four songs on that track any way that I wanted to. However, the track just above it in that same timeline, Track 2, is still frozen.
    Hunt, just a moment ago I solved my problem. Still not being that familiar with the program, two days ago I know that I was playing with all of the controls, and I obviously hit one of them without knowing one of its side effects. I hit the show "show track keyframes". I'm sure that you know it, but I didn't realize that when that function is selected, you can't do much else with the track but play with those keyframe. Even though I didn't have the track locked, in the traditional way, it was still, for all practicall reasons, locked. I unchecked that function and now everything is back to normal again on that track.
    Something very simple, as many things turn out to be when you understand it. However, maybe someone else will make the same mistake, and my posting here will help them.
    I will use your suggestions for using .WAV files. Thank you again.

    Terry,
    What is the purpose of using the .WMA files? I'm sure that you have a good reason, but they can be problematic, at best. I only use them as a trasfer medium, when I need to get a DD 5.1 SS soundtrack into Audition for editing. There, I break them out into 6 discrete .WAV files, edit in Multi-track Mode and then usually Export as the 6 discrete WAV's to be encoded to DTS, or similar.
    If you do not have a compelling reason for using the .WMA, try PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit and see if the issues go away.
    Good luck, and let us know how it goes please,
    Hunt

  • How do you sync music into your library from another file

    how do you sync music into your library from another file?  After moving all my music into a new location, is there a quicker way to upload the music into the library rather than adding file by file?

    Hi MonicaJani,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  You can also add folders of media as described here:
    Adding music and other content to iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1473
    Adding content on your computer to iTunes
    iTunes helps you add digital audio and video files on your computer directly to your iTunes library. You can add audio files that are in AAC, MP3, WAV, AIFF, Apple Lossless, or Audible.com (.aa) format. If you have unprotected WMA content, iTunes for Windows can convert these files to one of these formats. You can also add video content in QuickTime or MPEG-4 format to iTunes. To learn how to add these files to iTunes follow the steps below.
    Open iTunes
    From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
    MacAdd to Library
    Windows
    Add File to Library
    Add Folder to Library
    Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add
    If iTunes is set to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," iTunes will copy all content that is added to the iTunes library to the iTunes Music folder. To adjust this setting or change the location of this folder, go to the Advanced tab in iTunes Preferences.
    Cheers,

  • TS4009 How do you drop files into storage

    How do you drop files into storage, and how do others find your public storage so they can download files you have put into iCloud?

    iCloud does not provide general file storage, nor a Public Folder, in the manner of the MobileMe iDisk. You will need to find a third-party alternative - this page examines some options:

    how do you get instruments into garageband i.e. violin, sax etc.

    You can install additional sound fonts, see GarageBand '11: Play Soundfonts in GarageBand
    or install Jam Packs: If you buy (for a moderate fee) Mainstage 2 at the AppStore, this will install all five JamPacks, so that the loops and instruments can be used with GarageBand. This way you will get all Symphonie orchestra instruments, World Music, Rhythm Section and many more.

  • How do you load cards into passbook?

    how do you load cards into passbook?

    Hi Darcie,
    No, as far as I know there's no load standard load program for CRM product catalog data. We're on v4.0, so I can't say what's been added in later releases.
    Anyway, if you write your own, have a look at package COM_PRDCAT_WEB_API which contains lots of goodie function modules you can use to manipulate product catalog data.
    Dont forget
    CALL FUNCTION 'COM_PRDCAT_TRANSACTION_BEGIN'
    at the start and
    CALL FUNCTION 'COM_PRDCAT_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
    at the end.
    There's also package COM_PRDCAT, but when we tried to do stuff with FMs in this package we ran into errors since some global variables were undefined.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you import photos into imovie?

    How do you import photos into imovie?

    If you can open a Finder Window to your photos, you can drag them in to an iMovie project from the Finder.
    Some third party apps might support drag and drop, but I haven't got Lightroom to test it. If drag and drop from LightRoom does not work, try exporting from LightRoom into a Finder folder and drag them in from there.

  • How do you speed up video clips for Imovie 8?

    How do you speed up video clips for Imovie 8?

    Do you mean get 55 minutes of real time footage to show in only 55 seconds?
    One way that might work but it will take a fair bit of work in multiple repeated steps.
    Select all the footage on the timeline and then use the Turtle/Rabbit slider to speed it all up to the maximum speed allowed. This of course won't be any where close to 55 seconds.
    BUT... export your movie back out to video tape or to a full quality DV format quicktime file. This speeded up version becomes "normal" time. Now reimport to iMovies. Since this is now normal speed as far as iMovie is concerned, you can again use the slider to speed the whole thing up to the max.
    Now just repeat as often as needed to get it as fast as you want. Export back out, reimport, adjust speed, export, import, adjust, etc.
