How to make a movie half black and white and half color

Is there a way to take a full color video and make half of the video black and white and the other half full color? For instance imagine a line down the center of the video, on the left the video is black and white, on the right side it's full color. Taking that concept if an object or person moves from the left to the right side of the screen, thus crossing that invisible line they automatically switch from black and white to color.
Almost like a video mask overlay.. Is that possible in iMovie?

When I do that it only makes a short portion (the top video) color somehow it shortens the clip to 2 seconds, I tried to edit for the full 47 second clip (just a sample to play with) but it keeps going back to 2 seconds for the top video.
Any other ideas? I do have Final Cut Pro as well as Adobe After Effects as well, but I just figured iMovie would be easiest way to do this simple effect...

How to make a movie start automatically and loop continuously

Hi there,
Two beginner questions here for a kind helpful person out there. I have searched the Encore help option but the answers all refer to menu options.
I have exported a simple movie from Premiere into Encore. There is no menu. It if for a museum and the client wants to simply insert the DVD and for it to launch itself and then play on a continuous loop. They don't want any interactivity.
So, my question is how do I apply a simple, 'on insert - play' rule and 'on end - go back to beginning and play' so that this happens automatically?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi peachespeaches,
rightfully, at the Menu>properties>Motion>just make sure the "Loop #:" stated "Forever" and your "Loop Point" and "Duration" will automatically adjusted when you insert the movie clip on the background of your Menu. I'm using a CS5 Encore... Trying out for very long time yet couldn't achieve it... However, I use to do it on Encore 1.5, no problem at all, it works! Just don't know why it doesn't on CS5 Encore... I'm suspecting that the software I'm holding might have some problem? Hope you are using CS5 Encore also, could you try on and let me know if it works on your side?

How to make photo part B&W and part color

Anyone know how to do this with either Photo Shop Elements or CS2?

Mark:
Yes, it's fairly easy to do. This is for PS but it'll be similar in PSE except the desaturation function is under the Enhance->Adjust Color menu selection (this is in PSE2. Later versions may be different).
1 - select the area you want to remain in color either with the magic wand, lasso or other means.
2 - in the Select menu choose Inverse.
3 - go to the Image->Adjustments menu and select the Desaturate option.
If you have several non-contiguous areas you want to remain in color you'll need to have each of them selected before performing the desaturation function. I always duplicate the base layer and do my editing on it because when I screw up I only have to remove that layer and make a duplicate instead of closing the file w/o saving and reopening. Saves me lots of time.

I created a new collection and put all of my same photos in them as a previous collection, then I changed them to black and white and both collections changed. How do I keep the first collection colour and make the second collection black and white.

I created a new collection and put all of my same photos in them as a previous collection, then I changed them to black and white and both collections changed. How do I keep the first collection colour and make the second collection black and white.

For the second collection, choose the option to make virtual copies. Then you can turn the virtual copies to black & white, leaving the first collection in color. If you want file copies of the B & W images you can export copies.

How can I print with the black and white cartridge only?

I am trying to print using the black and white cartridge only because magenta is out of ink but I'm getting the following error message in HP Photosmart C7200 series print dialog:

How to make your movie from a template in AE CS6?

Hello,
Firstly, I'm new to this forum and Adobe After Effects. Hence, please excuse my beginner's language.
I recently modified a slideshow template in AE CS6. After doing all the necessary modifications in the template project, I do not know how to make a movie out of it.
I'll appreciate your help in guiding me by providing the necessary information to create the movie.
Waiting for a reply.
Thanks

Ouch. That's rather like saying your thesis committee needs your paper tomorrow and, say, while we're at it, can we help you with your research?
After Effects is huge, unbelievably deep and stupidly complicated.
It's not that we don't WANT to help you, it's that we cannot execute the rendering commands for you nor can we make all of the rendering and output decisions for you.

How to make a button to stop and run a for loop?

How to make a button to stop and run a for loop? and if it is stopped it shall start from where i t stopped.

Your VI has some very fundamental flaws.
The start/stop button is outside the FOR loop, thus it will NOT get read during execution of the FOR loop, but only before the FOR loop starts. Think dataflow!
Thus the terminal of the start/stop button belongs inside the FOR loop.
Your FOR loop iterates 20x, which probably takes about a nanosecond. You will NOT be fast enough to reliably press the start/stop button during a specific iteration of the FOR loop.
Your code does not "stop and run" a FOR loop (sic). The loop always spins, but executes an empty case when "Stopped". I guess that's what you actually want?
Once you solve (2), the x indicator will contain a random value whenever you "stop".
As soon as the 20 iterations complete, the outer while loop spin an things start over, another nanosecond later.
Place e.g. a 500ms wait inside the FOR loop to solve this.
Don't place terminals of indicators on top of formula nodes.
Your formula does not produce any output, so really has no purpose.
Use a real "stop" button to terminate the while loop (mechanical action: latch when released). Right now you are using a plain switch, which does not reset to false before the next run. This means that you need to manually reset it before running the program again.
It is oftern useful to operate the VI in execution highlighting mode. You will immediately see that your button does not get read during execution of the FOR loop. Try it!

How to make it move correctly?

I made a simple Flex application. There is a helicopter which
will move to points that user clicks in the canvas. For example, it
is at A point. When I click at B point, the helicopter will move to
B. Then it will move to C when I click at C.
However, the problem arises when I click at B, C, D
continuously. It moved from A to B. However, I don't think it moved
from B to C. Maybe it moved from B' to C.
Please tell me how to make it move correctly.

Make clicking disabled when the helicopter is moving. So
right after a click, disable clicking.
There are many coding possibilities for doing so. Make your
own, then add the code below after it:
MoveEffect.addEventListener("effectEnd",
callHandlerFunctionOfSomeSort);
private function callHandlerFunctionOfSomeSort(e:Event):void
// In this section, re-enable it using your own method.
Good luck!

How to make a photo half black and white with select colours

Hey,
Can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to make a photo black and white with abit of colour like the one attached... on CS4?
Cheers

Haven't seen you attached file as it takes a long time for attachments to load on this forum. Try little camera icon instead.
EASIEST way to have B&W in areas is to add Hue and Saturation adjustment layer. Use sliders to make B&W. Next paint on layer MASK, with black, to restore color in areas you want to show color.

How to make a movie of a presentation keeping audio and pictures in sync

How can I synch slides and audio (the audios are different lengths) in a presentation and turn it into a video.
Each slide should stay in place until the audio has finished (the audio's are slightly different lengths).
I've tried using a free trial of "Adobe Presenter" but I couldn't seem to make a movie of my presentation.
I will consider purchasing the software that will do this for me as I have a few presentations I want to make and convert to movie format for my colleagues to watch (this is to help in a teaching environment).
Is there a program that will let me match up my audios and slides in the correct order and synch them so the audios do not move beyond the slide for which they are intended? Any help much appreciated with this problem.

Hi,
The slide duration in presenter is automatically adjusted according to the time of the audio inserted on that slide.
How are you inserting audio on slide ? Recording or inserting using presenter option ?
You cannot create a movie format like avi, mp4 etc
But you may publish the presenttaion in the swf format which will play in a browser or a swf player. To play in the broswer you just need to have Adobe Flash Player installed on your system. It will play like a movie in the broswer.
Let me know if you need some more help
Thanks,
