How to get a "film" look with video

I'm hoping someone can help me find a thread from the archives that I had seen recently, but now cannot find.
The process that was described included "doubling" the video track, then offsetting V2 by one frame (?) then de-interlacing....or something like that.
If that sounds familiar to anyone, and if you could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. I can't remember if it had been a thread in the "FCE" discussions or "Pro Video" section, but I can't seem to find it in my searches.
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

Thanks. I checked out the web site, and although it only refers to FCP, I assume "Film Effects" is compatible with FCE HD v3 as well.
I appreciate the info.

  • How to get the cinematic look with FCE 4?

    I have an hdr-sr 10 camera with avchd and am using FCE 4.
    How or what are the steps I need to take to get that film or cinematic look? Is there a special combination of filters I need to use? Is there a setting on the camera I need to use as well?
    Mike

    Light the scene carefully.
    Turn off detail enhancement on the camera.
    Never zoom; move the camera instead--using a home-made dolly, for example.
    Try to set up your shots to decrease depth of field,
    by setting your aperture to the smallest number (f1.8)
    and keeping your optical zoom maxed out--if possible.
    Use zebra stripes; never overexpose.
    Shoot multiple takes from different angles.
    Get your microphone close to the talent.
    Turn off auto-focus and auto-exposure.
    Turn on Progressive Shutter Mode.
    Use a tripod to make sure your establishing shots are rock steady.
    Edit without dissolves, unless you're showing the passage of time.
    Check out whether these filters will work with FCE4:

    Go to Ken Stone's site, and scroll down to Film Look:

    When shooting, wear a beret.

  • How to get slow playback speed with video

    Hi. Newbie to the forums. hope you can help.
    Can I put a control in flash that allows users to alter the
    playback speed of a video clip? I am making a tutorial (with sound)
    and I want the students to be able to run the video in slow motion
    and then gradually increase the speed as they become more
    confident.
    Any ideas?
    Regards

  • Has anyone figured out how to get speech recognition working with sticky keys enabled on mountain lion?

    I'm trying to use speech recognition to input text on my iMac running the latest mountain lion, 10.8.3.
    I have sticky keys enabled.
    When I try to start speaking by pressing the function key twice nothing happens. I can only get it to work if I disable sticky keys.
    The same problem occurs with all the other modifier keys as shortcut, they do not work with sticky keys.
    When I try to select a different shortcut, I am unable to select a two key combination, but am limited to one.
    If I select the F6 key, or any other single key, I am able to start speech recognition. However the second time that I press the key, it does not stop recognition and process my words. Instead, it restarts the recognition.
    Has anyone figured out how to get speech recognition working with sticky keys enabled?
    Or a way to get an individual key shortcut to start on the first press and process it on the second?
    Or a way to get key combinations to work, as specified by the help:
    Dictation On and Off
    To use Dictation, click On.
    When you’re ready to dictate text, place the insertion point where you want the dictated text to appear and press the Fn (function) key twice. When you see the lighted microphone icon and hear a beep, the microphone is ready for you to speak your text.
    Shortcut
    By default, you press the Fn (Function) key twice to start dictation. If you like, you can choose a different shortcut from the menu.
    To create a shortcut that’s not in the list, choose Customize, and then press the keys you want to use. You can press two or more keys to create your shortcut.

    I noticed with version 10.8.4 of OS X that I am now able to select F6 to activate, and the return key to complete the speech recognition. This is still different than the description of how these should function that's included in the help, but at least it's an improvement.

    Hi ,
    How to get a minus sign with the cost field in ALV.
    The Ouput will be displayed like  Rs -1500 instead of 1500-
    I can't use concatenate also as i may have to use the sum functionality of ALV .
    Cheers

    Hi sunny,
    1. The OTHER FIELD
       has to be character field of say length 15.
    2. Write the original numeric value to
       this character field (in a loop)
    3. But simply writing won't help.
    4. use this kind of logic.
    5.
    REPORT abc.
    DATA : m TYPE i.
    DATA : chr(15) TYPE c.
    m = -100.
    WRITE m TO chr.
    IF m < 0.
      SHIFT chr RIGHT BY 1 PLACES.
      CONDENSE chr.
      CONCATENATE '-' chr INTO chr.
    ENDIF.
    WRITE chr.

    How to get an error icon with tool tip in a displaying table   in a particular field..
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    In the context  create an attribute of type string .
    Create the attribute in the node which you bind for table.
    In the layout .
    1.create a Table UI element.
    2 create binding for UI element.
    3Right click on the Table UI and select insert table column.
    4.once the table column is inserted right click on table column and select insert cell editor.
    5.create the cell editor of the type image.
    6.Bind the source property of the image to the attribute in the node which you have created.
    so depending on what image(type of icon) needs to be displayed set the attibute accordingly.
    refer to the link for image :

  • Need help with getting images to look smooth (without the bitmap squares) around the edges. When I transfer the image from pictures, it sets itself into the InDesign layout, but with square edges. I need to find out how to get it to look smooth?

    Need to find out how to get my images transferred into an InDesign layout without the rough edges, as with a bit map image, but to appear with smooth edges in the layout. I can notice it more when I enlarge the file (pic). How can I get it to appear smooth in the finished layout. Another thing too that I noticed; it seems to have effected the other photos in the layout. They seem to be
    pixelated too after I import the illustration (hand drawn artwork...)? Any assistance with this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    No Clipboard, no copy & paste, as you would not get the full information of the image.
    When you paste you can't get the image info from the Links panel, but you can get resolution and color info either via the Preflight panel or by exporting to PDF and checking the image in Acrobat.
    Here I've pasted a 300ppi image, scaled it, and made a Preflight rule that catches any image under 1200ppi. The panel gives me the effective resolution of the pasted image as 556ppi. There are other workflow reasons not to paste—you loose the ability to easily edit the original and large file sizes—but pasting wouldn't cause a loss in effective resolution or change in color mode.

  • How to get the original look of firefox 4 with 'firefox button' on top then bookmarks lane following with address bar..?

    i have been using firefox 3.6.16 and just upgraded to version 4 last night. actually the problem is this, in my browser the 'firefox button' and all tabes are shown in the same lane on top.
    what i want is to get the default look of firefox 4 with firefox button on top and all the tabs appearing on beneath this button..(not in same lane)
    am i having due to any preference setting or else? please help

    If the Firefox window is maximized, it will display the tabs in the same line as the Firefox button, it only displays them on a separate line on a non-maximized window.

  • How to get instance of Class with its type parameters

    Hi,
    Have any of you folks been dealing with generics long enough to show me how this should be written? Or point me to the answer (I have searched as well as I could).
    I boiled down my situation to the included sample code, which is long only because of the inserted comments. And while boiling I accidentally came across a surprise solution (a bug?), but would obviously prefer a smoother solution.
    My Questions (referred to in the code comments):
    #1. Is there a way to get my parameterized type (classarg) without resorting to using the bogus (proto) object?
    #2. Can anyone understand why the "C" and "D" attempts are different? (All I did was use an intermediate variable????) Is this a bug?
    Thanks so much for any input.

    So in summary
    This doesn't compile:
          classarg = (Class<CompoundObject<String,String>>)CompoundObject.class;but these do compile:
          classarg = (Class<CompoundObject<String,String>>)(Class)CompoundObject.class;or
          Class coclass = (Class)CompoundObject.class;
          classarg = (Class<CompoundObject<String,String>>)coclass;And this doesn't compile:
           classarg = proto.getClass().asSubclass(proto.getClass());but this does:
           Class tmp1 = proto.getClass();
           classarg = tmp1.asSubclass(tmp1);

  • How to get a cinematic look?

    I just did a small 4 minute movie in FCE 4 and would like to get a cinematic look. There's actually a function on my camera (Canon HF 100) to get this type of look along with using a frame rate of PF24 but I didn't use it.
    Is there a certain video filter I can use to try to obtain this type of look?

    Good thing you didn't use the 24p mode on your camcorder, because FCE doesn't work with 24p footage.
