How to divide clip into separate shots?

When I capture a full tape, I always receive one clip (file). How to divide it into separate shots?

What format are you working in? What version of the software?
Maybe this will help

When I capture from tape, express 4 now breaks my captured material into separate shots, an icon in the browser for each. Before it captured the whole clip till I hit escape, and created just one Icon. How to i get back the way it was.

When I capture material from tape with final cut express 4, it used to create one icon for the whole clip. Now, when i capture, it breakes the material down into many browser icons, shot by shot. I dont want that. How to I return to what I ahd before/

What you describe is normal behavior for HDV capture using FCE.
DV captures as one clip or may split the clip if there are timecode breaks on the tape.
HDV always breaks clips at the shot changes using FCE.
HDV cameras can downconvert to DV even if HDV was used to record the footage so it's important to know what the camera outputs during FCE capture.
Maybe this is why you have had mixed results with the differing capture windows?

Separating clips into separate "projects"

I've checked each topic that even looks close to my problem, and can't find an answer (5 pages of this discussion).
I've already imported the tape. It consists of say 50 clips of varying lengths. There are 5 categories each clip might belong to: each of my 4 children and me (home).
I want to create a Project for each of these categories and then save each clip into the appropriate category. When finished, I want all clips for that child in Project A, all clips for Child B in Project B, etc.
I have not been able to do this without saving the entire tape as 5 different projects, then delete the clips that don't "apply" in each Project. This takes up a huge amount of space. I'm not even sure that I get what I want after I do that, as each Project, after alteration, still seems to be just as large as the original.
I really don't want to re-import the movie/tape, stopping at the end of each clip to store it in a separate Project or to set up a new project for the next clip.
There has to be an easier way to do this. What is it, please?

Hi grandpa,
sorry for confusing you with my word-creations I totally understand, what's your masterplan, I just have ONE kid as hereo of my movies (my son is 5y), and I also try to make "themed movies" (at the beach, soccer, cute, funny etc)
so, I too have the problem of dozends of hours tape, mixed with all kind of content and then shorten that into 5min
but I don't import EVERYTHING, and then try to divide it into 5 big "folders" there's another, more pro tool for editing, called FinalCutExpress it has a totally different method of handling movies as in a Hollywood edit lounge, you can import the tapes and first organize them in socalled bin, THEN you start editing but I can't recommend FCE for a beginner VERY high learning curve, iM is much more intuitive
the "one tape for every grandchild"-idea is so wonderful simple&easy, I would do so in future (labeling is important)
another thing, I recommend: after a day/weekend of shooting, start editing immidiatly! your memory is fresh, you're motivated to do it get a big external harddrive and store your 5, 6, 8 different projects you can work on them over a long time simutanously so, everything grows, not only your grandchildren
use Hui's hints
good luck, have fun!

How to put clip into 16:9 timeline then scale footage?

How do I drop a clip into a 16"9 SD timeline and scale the footage up until its fits the frame, then export to Youtube SD widescreen.

Assuming you wish to drop a 4:3 clip into the DV widescreen sequence? Select clip on timeline to highlight it, then go to Effects panel and use MOTION effect - the SCALE parameter can be use zoom in, and you might want to use POSITION as well if heads are getting cut off. Can pan-and-scan to keep action centered. Study up on using KEYFRAMES also, since you may need to animate the framing to keep subject in frame.
When happy with the edit, just export as H.264 using the YouTube SD wide preset
Thanks

How to convert multitrack into separate mono tracks

Hi all,
a few years ago I worked in Audition 3, making a DTS CD. Now I want to do the same in CS5.5, but it seems I can't do it anymore. In Audition 3 I made a multitrack mix using envelopes and panning etc. Then I made a selection and went to View - Surround encoder. After placing all te tracks, I exported to 6 separate mono WAV files and I used an external program to put these 6 WAVs together into a DTS-WAV, which I then burned onto a CD.
In 5.5 I tried to make a DTS-WAV, but this isn't accepted in Nero for burning. So I wanted to return to Audition 3 and wanted to save all the tracks in my multitrack mix to separate mono WAV files and then load them in Audition 3 and from there make a DTS, the way I knowe it works. But I can't find how to save my mix to separate mono WAVs, one for each track.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Ton Janssen

Thank you very much for your help. This could have done the trick. But when I tried it, it didn't work. I found out, that my 5.1 WAV file contains nothing but silence.... So somehow I must have a setting wrong. Here's what I did:
1. I made a multitrack mix with enveopes and panning and stuff. Saving this to a normal stereo MP3 was no problem
2. On each track I wanted in my surround mix I changed the Output from Master to Default Surround Output
3. I placed each used track in the Track Panner window to build the 5.1 composition
4. I changed the output setting from the Master also to Default Surround Output, because the default setting also gave me just silence
5. I exported the selection (not the entire session, because it's 2 hours, too long for a small test just to see if it works...) using File - Export - Multitrack Mixdown - Time selection with WAV PCM - sample type 44K 5.1 channels 32-bit and format uncompressed 32-bit floating point.
I was hoping that this would result in static noise while playing it back, because I don't have a 5.1 soundcard. But it just gives me silence, no statics. And changing to stereo channels also gives silence.... After shutting down Audition and starting it up again, I can make a normal stereo mix again, and changing to 5.1 channels gives me a 5.1 WAV file with only a stereo mix (so only L and R are filled, C, LFE, Ls and Rs are empty .....)
In Audition 3 I made a 5.1 mix without having a 5.1 card either, so that shouldn't be the problem..... Now I regret that I made the first mix in 5.5....... But if I want to make the 5.1 mix in Audition 3, that would mean that I have to make the complete multitrack mix again: this would be at least 3 or 4 days of work....
What am I doing wrong?

Divide work into separate files

I have about 299 pages finished.
I need to separate them into 3 or 4 separate groups, so when I start to work on them, I will only have to open one group.
I have the work under one name on my dock, so I can just click and go to work, but I only work on one part of work each time, so don't want to open them all.
If I could have 3 or 4 files on the dock, I could click one at a time.
I know I would have to name each one with a different name or number.
I thought I could highlite each section and save them to documents, but that didn't work for me.
I also tried 'sections' (click at end of text where you want to section) but that didn't do what I need.
I have pages '08, versio 3.0.0, on a MacBook Pro 10.6.8.
Thank you

Save a new document called My Work 01.pages
Duplicate this in Finder however many times you want divisions eg My Work 01.pages, My Work 02.pages etc
Then delete the unwanted parts one by one in each. Helps if each is a Chapter and the number is the Chapter number.
Make sure you correct the starting page in each chapter, before you delete the unwanted chapters, to keep the sequence.

GarageBand 2013 did not split a clip into separate clips.

I moved my playhead to the exact location that I wanted the first clip to end at and the second clip to begin at. I then clicked on Edit, then "Split Regions at Playhead." However, GarageBand did not split the clip.
Please tell me what else I need to do.
Thanks!
Montana B.

Montana,
did you select the region you want to split? It does not suffice to select the track, the region in the track needs to be highlighted. You can tell if the region is selected, by the lighter upper border, where the name of the region is. In the example below, the region in the middle is selected, the other regions not.

How to get clips into Itunes Movies

I am a Windows XP user, and I have a bunch of JPEG files on my computer, I'd like to put onto the Ipod. Drag and drop doesn't seem to work - might be because the clips are all in windows media video format. Does everything have to be saved in Quicktime, or will Itunes automatically convert it for me?

with your jpg files you can connect your ipod than you choose the photo tab you check selected folders you choose the directory which your picture are and sync to your ipod.
but putting your videos you have to convert your own video yourslef it takes one or two hours to convert a video to mp4. you must get a video convertor to mp4.(avs video convertor)
if you are waiting for itunes to convert your video i wish
it will never happen!

How can I divide a video into separate clips?

I need to take video that I have been given and divide it into ten second intervals in order to collect data from each clip (for behavioral analysis and research). I know nothing about using video editing software but if I can learn how to do it right I will have a new job, so I really am motivated to learn!
Thanks in advance,
Sandi

Maybe you dont have to :divide" it. (eg cut it up into ten second clips.)
Maybe a running clock super imposed onthe footage will be a better way for your goal.
We can tell you how to do either...but you do need the basics * edit and application fundamentals) before starting anything.
Dont be daunted at the start. Its easier than it looks

"these clips were left offline and not divided into separate clips"

After a Maxtor brand hard drive crash, I am trying to recapture footage that was lost. I am using the exact same tapes and source deck as I did originally. In the process of recapture, repeatedly, I get "Batch capture encountered timecode breaks in sequence items. To protect your edits, these clips were left offline and not divided into separate clips." The result is, after spending whatever the time for each clip to capture I get nothing.
How do I turn off whatever unnecessary protection mechanism is in place? How do I recapture my clips?

I've already tried both "create new clip" which created NO clip. The I tried "Warn After Capture" and it can't find the last second of video on the tape, so results in nothing.
I'm now into a new subject. I have created an EDL of the finished project and have tried to re-import that EDL into FCP for recapture. But every attempt to bring the EDL back in results in "Error Importing EDL" and I'm still screwed. Yes I have stripped the recapture information down to the most basic, cuts only, no effects, no filters EDL and it still won't work--I've made dozens of attempts. That may become another query on here: How do you make an EDL that will re-import into FCP? Stay tuned.

I have old video clips in Photoshop Elements Organizer v12 for Mac. I want to divide some of those clips in Organizer. I can do that in Premiere Elements 12 and save them as "Projects" - but how do I get the divided clips back into Organizer?

I have old video clips in Photoshop Elements Organizer v12 for Mac. I want to divide some of those single clips into 2 or 3 separate clips, each shown separately in Organizer. I can divide the clips in Premiere Elements Editor 12 and save them as "Projects" - but I can't find any way to get those divided clips back into Organizer. Does anyone know whether that can be done? Many thanks for your thoughts.

What about Google Drive? And just share the folder with the family members.

How to split a video clip into two separate clips?

Whenever i enter the key word to search for split, it always shows me how to do split edit, or split screen. I do not want that. I just need to know, how to cut a video/audio clip into two pieces, so that I can cut one of them out of the time line....
Could somebody help....
Thanks

I have a sandwich. I have been searching how to split the sandwich but it seems you don't split a sandwich. Someone said look in a draw for a tool or something!
Wow.
There are lots of ways to do what you're asking besides what has been said. You can double click the clip in the Browser. Set In & Out points in the viewer and add the Clip to the sequence. No need to split or cut anything in the sequence.
You really need to learn a bit more before you continue cause this is a pre-noob question. I don't really know how to categorise it.
