How to correct a one-word mistake

My client made a one-word mistake in her presentation that is part of my video project. I don't want to ask her for another take, since she spoke for 15 minutes. What is the best way to correct the word? Should I try to make a very short voiceover that covers the mistake?

There are several ways to do this.
Would your client agree to read this sentence over? Or maybe the whole paragraph? This could be either in video or audio. This gives you a lot more flexibility than a voiceover, although it would have the same effect.
First the video option.
You can import this new video into the Event. Then drag the video for that sentence into the project, and drop it where the sentence begins in the main video. A pop-up munu will appear. Select CUTAWAY. Alternatively, when the popup menu appears, you can select AUDIO ONLY. *This way, she would not need to be dressed the same in the second take. Note: if you do not see the popup menu woth these options, go to iMovie/Preferences and enable te advanced tools.
You may need to adjust the volumes. You can turn up the volume of the Cutaway clip to 100% using the audio inspector. You will want to select the portion of the main clip that contains the word or sentence that you don't want to use. A yellow border should be around it after you select it. Then EDIT/SPLIT CLIP. Select the clip that has the word and open the audio inspector. Set this volume to zero.
Audio Option:
If your client re-reads the sentence in audio, AIFF is best. Drag the AIFF file into iMovie and drop it where the sentence begins. You can drag to the left or right later to line it up exactly.
Voiceover option:
Or you could do a voiceover, if your client is with you at your Mac. Voiceover Tutorial here.

  • How to correct spelling and grammar mistakes in Pages?

    So I'm new to Mac's and the Pages wordprocessing software. Normally, in Microsoft Word, when something is misspelled or grammatically incorrect, the red or green line comes under it and you can right-click that to see options to correct the error. Pages also does the red or green line thing under incorrect words and stuff, but since you can't right click on a Macbook, how do find out what's wrong and how to correct it? Basically whats the Pages parallel of right-clicking to correct in Word?

    Launch Pages.
    Click "Pages" in the menu bar.
    From the dropdown select "Preferences".

  • How to bold a one word in a textfield

    I would like to bold a few randomn words in a sentence used as a rawvalue in a textfield.
    e.g. "This
    word should be bold"
    Does someone know how to acheive the above through scripting
    Thank you in advance
    Aditya

    Hi Aditya,
    I am not sure if this is much help to you. I do not know how to script what you are looking for.
    However you can change the field format for each of the textfields. In LC Designer 8.2 select the textfield and go to the Object / Field window. Then change the Field Format from "Plain Text Only" to "Rich Text". When using the PDF form, you can change the format of the whole textfield or individual words. For example "Control + B" will give you bold text, "Control + U"; underline, "Control + I"; italic. When a field is active you can press "Control + E" and this will allow you to change the font type and size, etc.
    If you are using an earlier version of LC Designer, then you have to make two changes in the Object window. From memory one is in the Field tab and the other in the Binding tab.
    Good luck,
    Niall

  • How does the track pad auto correct miss spelled words?

    How does the Track Pad auto correct miss spelled words, unlike the mouse i can no longer double right click to change the spelling??

    Hey hoopsmiller,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, you want to turn off auto correct in OS X. It looks like you have already done some troubleshooting. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.
    Since you have already tried to turn it off for all apps, you can try individually.
    OS X Yosemite: Check spelling and grammar
    For a specific app: In the app, choose Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Correct Spelling Automatically (it’s off when a checkmark isn’t shown).
    Mac OS X 10.6: Checking spelling and grammar
    If you don’t see the “Spelling and Grammar” command in the Edit menu, the application doesn’t provide the Mac OS X spell-checking feature. Check the application’s preferences or menus to see if it has its own spelling checker.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a good one,
    Mario

  • Pages:  How can I sort one column of words and not have it affect the other columns?

    How can I sort one column of words and not have it affect the other columns?  I have opened the inspector to the edit columns and rows under Table.  It will sort the column, but then it changes the other colums as well.  I know that if I use Numbers, it will work, but I want to know how to do the same thing in Pages.

    Hi Peter,
    Numbers sorts full rows on values in selected column(s). The technique for sorting a single column is essentially the same as Jerry is describing for Pages tables—separate the (data in the) column to be sorted, sort it, return it to the table.
    In Numbers the actual column may be separated from the original table, sorted, then returned. In Pages, the data must be extracted, sorted, then pasted back in, overwriting the unsorted data (if it was left in the original table).
    iWork tables follow a database model in which each row is a Record, and each column holds a Field within the records.
    As evidenced by the current question (and several similar questions arising in the Numbers community) that model doesn't apply to the way some users, especially some who come in from the MS Excel world, use tables.
    With Excels model—islands of data on a single large table, the ability to sort one or a selected few columns of data makes sense. One 'island' may comprise only cells AA21:AH50. Sorting that small 'table' should be possible without disturbing the rest of rows 21-30, which are probably part of one or more other 'data islands' in the sea that is a MS Excel spreadsheet.
    In Numbers, each of those 'islands' would be a separate Table, and that Table would be sortable without disturbing other Tables in the document.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • I have two pdf docs that I used Acrobat to convert to word docs.  How do I extract one page from one doc to insert into the other doc?

    I have two pdf docs that I converted to Word Docs using Acrobat Pro.  How do I extract one page from the first doc and insert it into the second doc?  When I "select all" it grabs the entire document.  I need to take pages out, put other pages in, and edit some of the text.

    HI djlarp,
    Try triple-clicking in the text that you want to select--it can sometimes be tricky to select text in a converted document. If that doesn't work, it could be that the PDF document was created from a scanned document, and OCR wasn't enabled when you converted the document. (However, OCR is enabled by default when you convert via the ExportPDF website.)
    If you're unable to select text by triple-clicking, let us know. I would be happy to take a closer look at your files.
    Best,

  • How to create hyperlink on one word inside a paragraph?

    I have a paragraph of text coming from the database as a CLOB, and I need to add a hyperlink to one word in the paragraph. I have done this for an entire field, but not one word inside the paragraph. Any ideas on how to do this?
    The output file is a PDF. The version of Oracle Reports is 10g.
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for your time Mona.
    Without modifying the Table Interface I solved my problem.
    Earlier I mentioned that the exceptions were not highlighting when created in BEx. the reason is I gave negative %  range -10 to -1000.
    But when I changed that range as -1000 to -10, It worked fine. I created the same exceptions for all the 7 queries in BEx. So all those execeptions are automatically highlighted the result in Portal.

  • How to find a word with different font format (e.g. italic and regular in one word)

    Hi people,
    I need to find a word, prefferably using GREP or simple Find/Replace tool.
    Sometimes, when I get source text to paste into InDesign, some word's format is messed up. First letter is italic and rest is regular or otherwise (or any other font format). How can I find such words automatically. For example:

    Hi,
    If I had to do that, using Multi-Find/Change, I would play it like:

  • Converting PDF to Word changes the text to symbols. How to correct?

    Hi. I'm using Acrobat XI Pro and converting PDF's to Word docs changes the main text to symbols. I've tried this several times and always get the same result. Any idea as to how to correct? Thanks.

    Does the same thing happen if you select some text in the document, copy it
    and then paste it to Word?
    If so, then it's most likely a faulty font encoding.

  • Is it possible to turn off the fluid grid function in dreamweaver during the process of building your site by mistake? It was working fine and simply stopped and I don't see how to correct what is wrong.

    Is it possible to turn off the fluid grid function in dreamweaver during the process of building your site by mistake? It was working fine and simply stopped and I don't see how to correct what is wrong.

    There is no specific function that turns FGL on or off.
    When you say that it has stopped, do you mean that the handles no longer show?
    If that is the case, then I think you may have modified the CSS to such an extent that Dreamweaver no longer recognises it as belonging to FGL.
    There are a couple of avenues for you
    Redo the site and make sure not to touch the FGL CSS
    paste the code here so that we can see what has gone wrong.

  • Any advise on how I can turn just one word in a sentence upside down, as opposed to all flipped

    Could someone advise on how I can turn just one word in a sentence upside down, as opposed to all flipped. Im trying to make one word stand out whilst designing in a text sentence window.
    Thanks In advance

    It’s best to type your sentence and then click on the hand tool to deselect the Type tool
    Click the type tool again and type the word you wish to rotate (it will be on a separate layer.
    Select the layer with the full sentence and add a layer mask.
    Choose the brush and paint with black to mask the word in the sentence.
    Select the layer above with the single word and use the move tool to rotate and position it. Then save.
