How to divide a clip?
Hi
I have a long piece of video - and I will like to get different sectionsoout of this. If I copy (duplicate as new masterclip) the in out points become the same and I want to have several in and outs in the clip.
Hope this is clear - and thanks for the help.
GS
This is a very basic editing question and should be covered thoroughly in the manual. Essentially you'd load a clip into the Viewer then set IN and OUT points for a section of the clip and then edit it into the Timeline. Repeat for each section you want to use.
If you want to have something retained in the clip to show where the edit (IN and OUT) points were, use clip markers.

How do I get clips into "Available Media"
I am using Premiere Elements 3.0. I've just had some old home movies transferred to DVD into two fairly large .AVI files. I can import these two files into Premiere Elements, and then split clips that show up in the timeline and sceneline, but I can't get the "subdivided" clips back up into Available Media. There, they stay as the two original source .AVI files. Do I need to get them into "Available Media," or can I just reorder them in the timeline? I don't want to get too far down the road and then figure out I can't create an edited DVD. Thanks.
You don't say how you ripped the files from the DVD and how you got them converted to AVI files.
That said, version 3.0 is about 8 years old. The technology has changed dramatically over the years, and version 11 of the program is much better at working with a wider range of video formats, including DVD/VOB video. Version 3 could pretty much work successfully with miniDV footage and that's about it. You may well want to consider upgrading.
Version 3 will not sub-divide the clips from your DVD. You get your video as completed video files. The program has no facilities for breaking these larger files into individual scenes.
How well the program will be able to do anything with these files depends on how you converted them to AVIs and what codec these AVI files use. When you open one of these AVIs in a program like G Spot or MediaInfo, what codec, resolution and frame rate does it show?
EDIT:
It appears that maybe you're trimming the video yourself and then trying to add the shorted clips back to your media panel. Is that right?
If so, this will not work if you cut the video on your timeline.
Instead, open your clip in the Clip Monitor/Preview Monitor by double-clicking on it in your media panel. Set in and out markers and then you can dragged this "trimmed" clip to the media panel from the Clip Monitor for later use.
Note that it will still technically be the same long clip. It will just be pre-trimmed to the in and out points you use to create each sub-clip. -
How do I move clips from one Event to another?
How do I move clips from one Event to another?
As soon as I got the new iMovie, I started importing clips and making video's. Unfortunately, I hadn't fully understood the Events feature, so all of my clips are in a single "New Event" Event. I have now created several other Events and named them properly and would like to sort all of my clips into their proper "Event" folders. How do you do that?Ahh, Ok. I actually had to go to Lynda.com to watch a training video of this highly bassackwards maneuver, but now I have it. In other words, while the intuitive thing is to make a new event to hold the clip you want and then open the old event and drag the clip into it's new event, the only way to accomplish this maneuver is to NOT create a new event, but rather, go to the clip AFTER the one you want to move, select it and then Right-Click on it and select SPLIT EVENT BEFORE SELECTED CLIP (or go to FILE>SPLIT EVENT BEFORE SELECTED CLIP). Then you wait a few seconds while the program thinks a bit (no feedback it is doing this - just a pause) and then it automatically creates a new event with the clip you wanted. Now just double-click the new event and name it something meaningful.
Thanks for your help! -
How do I use clipping mask to cover unwanted background?
I'm practicing illustrator myself. I have a book for illustrator hoping it would show me step by step on how to use the masks to take away any unwanted background in a photo but it didn't do that. Can anyone teach me how or show me where to look for the information on how to use the clipping masks or other type of masks? I went to the adobe workshop video to look for the answer but it didn't show exactly as what i want to know. The image i'm practicing on is a family photo and i want to isolate everything to just one person in the photo so how can I do that using clipping mask? Thanks!!
oh~~~ so i still need to use pen tool to draw the shape out. I thought there's something i could use to make the shape easily. Stupid me XD
I was wondering if you could help me more...can you give me a rule of thumb like when is best to use illustrator to edit image or photoshop?
Thanks for your tip! I really appreciate it!!

How to make a clipping mask in this particular case?
Okay, Just to begin I know how to make a clipping mask, but for the case that I'm going to present right now I just can't figure out what mistake I am doing (if any). However I am a beginner.
http://vector.tutsplus.com/tutorials/illustration/how-to-create-a-medieval-paper-scroll/
In the link to above tutorial on how to make a medieval scrol I'm stuck at step 25 and would be glad to anyone who helped.
As said in step 25 that expand the appearance of the scroll and select the two then clip the mask. In th above picture I have just selected the scroll to show how it looks.
Now as you can see in the image below I have expanded the appearance of the paper scroll. Then I selected the paper scrol and the yellowish green grunge background placed below it. And the moment I hit Ctrl+7 (in windows) or Command+7 (in Mac) to make a clipping mask the error that showed up has been highlighted.
One more thing, I have clipped masks before too in the same tutorial given above but I don't know what has gone wrong for me in this step.
Please help.
Signed,
Awais RaufWhy would you want a clipping mask? I don’t see a reason for it.
However, for what you want I would use the Pathfinder panel to combine all the paths into one shape. First use the ungroup and release compound commands a few times each, to make sure you have nothing grouped. Then press the top left button in the Pathfinder p[panel. This should produce one closed path that just surrounds the scroll. -
How do I sort clips in the Project panel library (bin) alphabetically by file name?
Two questions: How do I sort clip thumbnails in the Project Panel library (bin) alphabetically by file name?
How do I "select" a group of 25 consecutive clips on the time line to form a group without having to click on each individual clip one at a time. The method in the Help menu about "alt" click does nothing for me.Sorry, I missed part 2. Unless CS4.2 has added a true "Group" function, like in InDesign, Illustrator, etc., there is not a direct way to keep Selected Clips together. However, you can put them on their own Sequence and then Nest that Sequence with others. This is often done, so that one can apply Effects "globally" to that Nested Sequence. [Note: there is no real Group function in Titler either, but for many operations, one can Select multiple Text Blocks, Shapes, Lines, etc., but there is no way to permanently "hold" that group.]
The Alt-click in the Project Panel, for instance, will allow one to drag all to the Timeline, and the Shift-click (or lasso w/ Cursor) in the Timeline will allow one to apply certain things to that group, but the moment that any other Clip is Selected, that "group," does not exist.
I can see a use for a real Group function, but for things like the application of Effects, one would still need to do the Nesting. Test this out by Selecting just two Clips, and go to apply an Effect - you cannot do that. OTOH, one can apply an Effect to one Clip, Rt-click it and choose Copy, then Select multiple Clips and Rt-click on those, where you would Paste Attributes. Not exactly what I think you are asking about, but the results, with just a few clicks, should be the same.
If I missed your intent and need, let me know where I went wrong.
Good luck,

How to edit a clip in a multicam sequence (CS6)?
I am using Premiere CS6 on Mac, I have a multicam sequence set up (2 cam).
I just want to color correct cam 2 to match cam 1 and I cannot figure it out. Everything I try applies the correction to the entire sequence.
If someone can provide exact steps to apply color correction to one clip in the sequence only (it's just brightness/contract, nothing complicated), so that it's reflected in the multicam sequence I'd be grateful. Even a link to a tutorial would be good as I cannot seem to find it online (almost everything points to CC which I don't use and is totally different than CS6).
Please help!Ok, I finally figured it out, no thanks to Adobe's crap "Help" system, which is missing MANY steps...
1. Right-click the Multi-Camera Source Sequence in the Project tab (NOT the multicam sequence you're editing). It's the one with the green/blue lines perfectly lined up.
2. Choose Open in Timeline.
3. In the Timeline, make the edits you want to the clip you want (in this case, Brightness/Contrast on clip 2)
4. Go to Window > Multi-Camera Monitor
5. You'll see your source clips stacked in the window, and you can fine tune from here.
6. Click on the Multi-Camera Sequence you're editing in the Timeline, and the Monitor should update to reflect your changes.
You can toggle back and forth between these sequences in the timeline, adjusting as you need.
This was incredibly easy for me to document, I really fail to understand why the Help file couldn't be bothered. It's completely missing things like what the difference is between the source multicam sequence and the program multicam sequence, how to edit a clip in your multicam sequence, and how the multicam monitor works. Really pisspoor documentation, but at this point, I don't expect anything else from Adobe. -
How to select multiple clips???
I am a very avid iMovie user and now this new version has me so confused. I have the basics down, but I can't figure out how to select all clips and dump them into the "timeline" area. I can select them one at a time and place them in the assembly area but that takes forever on a one hour soccer game. Anyone figure out how to select multiple clips or all clips at once?
Thanks ahead of time.Weird seeing this question today after I dealt with this yesterday. I did a movie yesterday that was multiple clips. I was able to select all clips at once and drag the entire thing up to the top window. I just tried to do the same thing again after reading this question and for the life of me, it will no longer allow me to click and drag to select them all. I wonder if this has something to do with the fact that all 10 or so clips I was able to highlight before, were all parts of the same clip when filmed (they were split into individual segments when imported). When I try to combine two clips that are not filmed sequentially, it will no longer allow it. The help menu says nothing about this. All it says is you need to click on the first clip and hold the mouse down and drag it to the end and it will select all. That is not working.

How to divide a grid (an 2D array) into subgrids? [Suduko]
Hey guys
I've been struggling with a problem with my Suduko program for a few days now and thought I could get some help here.
The problem is that I have no idea how to divide a Suduko grid and stuff them into subgrids.
My current plan is to go through the Suduko array r * c times (where r and c is the dimensions of a subgrid) and stuff the cells into my quad array (somehow). I've gone through the sourcecode of 4 suduko programs on sourceforge, but still can't find a solution (mainly because I can't read other prog. lannguages yet).
My code:

How do I move clips in one pane of iMove (10.0.3) into the timeline? iMovie somehow doesn't realize I'm trying to edit the clips.
Try this:
Select a small portion of the clip in the event (Above the timeline)
Click and hold and drag that section into the timeline, it should snap into place but if you drag it above another clip, it will not replace it but will be placed on top and the sound from the other clip will still play. Also this will allow you to use Blue/Green screen modes as well as picture in picture.
The best way is to drag it to the far right
