How to make different photos come into a frame in a tile-like fashion?

I've been using Final Cut Pro X for a few months, but mainly have been sticking to the basic stuff. Now, for a video I'm doing, I would like to show 4 or 5 different pictures that dynamically come into the frame in a tile-like fashion.
I guess the best way to describe this would be: Photo 1 comes in and resides on the top left. Photo 2 comes in and resides on the top right. Photo 3 comes in and resides in the bottom left. Photo 4 comes in and resides in the bottom right. Photo 5 comes in and resides in the middle. (Or if I can't do 5, then just 4 photos).
The photos are all different (not just a screen tile of one photo).
I could swear that I learned some sort of technique like this in the Final Cut Pro X book, but I can't remember how in the world to do it.
Can you guys please give me a jumpstart on this??? This **is** possible in Final Cut Pro X, isn't it? Or will I need to buy some sort of add-on to do this?
Thank you so much!!!!

If you want DIY, edit a still into the timeline. Option drag (to duplicate) the clip to the layer immediately above the primary storyline; repeat 3 more times so you have 4 identical clips connected to the original clip on the primary storyline.
For each clip, select, and resize with the transform function. Reposition as necessary. Either keyframe the moves into the correct position in the frame or keyframe the opacity if you want them to appear sequentially.
If you want to do it with a plug-in you might look art this or this.

  • 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.

  • I loaded my ipad photos from camera and all the pictures sorted by date.  Next, I did a sync with my computer and the photos were all reorganized into IMPRT folders an out of date sequence.  Any idea how to put the photos back into date files?

    I loaded my ipad photos from camera and all the pictures sorted by date.  I later sync my ipad with my computer and the photos were all reorganized into IMPRT folders an out of date sequence.  Any idea how to put the photos back into date files other than reloading all of them from camera?

    What version of iPhoto?
    Select one and rotate it. Then rotate it back. Does that make it appear? 
    A much better work flow is the keep the photos after importing.  Check the success the import, wait for at least one successful backup cycle then use you camera's format command to reformat the card

    I want each user use his own's Plan_Table. How to achieve this goal?Which version of Oracle - if you're on 10g or later you are already (effectively) doing this.
    If not, then copy the 10g strategy back to your version; in outline:
    <ul>
    drop all existing plan tables
    create a table (but call it plan_table$) in the SYS schema (you may prefer to use SYSTEM) as a global temporary table on commit preserve rows
    create a public synonym plan_table for plan_table$
    grant select insert update delete on plan_table to public
    </ul>
    Look in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catplan.sql in a 10g version of Oracle to check how it's done.
    Each user gets a private (temporary) table in their temporary tablespace whenever they use the plan_table
    Their private data disappears when there session ends.

  • How to make a photo small so I can send it by e-mail

    want to know how it make a photo small on my desktop so I

    I suppose there might be an extension, but you would be better off using a free photo editor.
    I use "IrfanView" (irfanview.com) to work with photographs.
    I use "PicPick" (picpick.org) to work from a screen print ("PrtSc") or capture to crop and annotate.
    *Also see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Posting_a_screenshot_on_the_forum#Windows
    *also see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot
    Something simpler may or may not be:
    :Picnik (picnik.com), online photo editing, fix photos, crop, resize, rotate, artsy effects, fonts, shapes.
    You also have alternatives storing the picture and./or elsewhere and providing a link
    * imageshack.com
    * dropbox.com
    If you have access to the image through Firefox, this extension looks promising

    Saving files to your desktop is not the best place.

    When I delete a photo from a page, it does not stay in the assets panel. My client uses in browser editing daily. Once a week he changes a photo just for a day, then needs the previous photo to replace it. The original photo is not in the asset panel (or folder) for him to choose.

  • JavaFX 2.0 : How to make a stage fit into browser view area?

    Invoking a JavaFX 2.0 applet from browser results in white spaces on the right and bottom area of the browser. This happens when the JavaFX stage resolutions is lesser than that of browsing desktop resolution. In a client/server model, usually server components doesn't know about the client resolutions. So how to make a stage fit into browser view area?
    Also I think, setting the primary stage to full screen mode is not what I want to achieve, as this mode overlays the browser window.

    Try typing 100% into the width and height fields. Alternatively, you could use Javascript (no connection to Java in spite of the name) to create an event to resize the applet to the window's size.

  • How to make different folders in photo album

    I have been addings photos in album. Now I want to make different folders in the album but unable to do so. Please guide.

    I may be misunderstanding what you want to do,
    You can create albums on the iPad in order to organize photos but I believe that you must be running iOS 5 at least. Your tagline shows iOS 4.3.2. It's been quite a while since I was running iOS 5, but I'm pretty sure it was introduced in iOS 5.
    If you are running iOS 5 or higher, launch the photos app and tap on Photos, then tap on the Edit button in the upper right. Select all of the photos that you want to place into an album by tapping on them. Then tap on Add To and choose Add to New Album. Name the new Album in the popup window and then tap Save.
    If you are not running iOS 5 - you have to import the photos from the camer roll to your computer, creat the albums on the PC and then sync them back to the iPad via iTunes.

  • How to make a photo [in iphoto ]into a poster

    i would like to make a photo into a poster using my printer ...i know the printer prints 8.5x11 sections that you trim & past together but i'm not sure how to do this [i have a canon pixma ip14000 printer]
    imac   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    I have made many digital photos into posters.BUT they were all fairly hi-rez photos to begin with. In other words, I can make a reasonable looking 30x40" poster starting with a photo from my 7 megapixel as opposed to a photo from my 3.2 MP camera. Depending on the final product, a person v. nature shot, if a person, the detail must be better, that means a highly concentrated shot 7,000,000 pixels before enlargement. I import it into photoshop, and depending on the effect, separate the person from the background do a gaussian blur, or convert the BG into B/W, sepia, or whatever, blend the two layers together import it into Adobe Illustrator for the enlargement (400-600%) and a fantastic border, and voila!!
    The point being, to make an effective enlargement, you must start with a quality photo.
    I somewhat doubt that an iPhoto will have the quality needed. If you have the original, and it was shot with a quality camera, use that.
    Hope I didn't bore you!!

  • How to sync different photo libraries from different apple devices used with the same ID

    Basically, I have two iphones (4 and 5s). Both iphones are synced in Itunes as regards apps, music and all documents but for photos.
    Each iphone has different photos, being neither of both libraries synced to Itunes or my pc. The problem is that when I bought the Iphone 5s and I tried to sync also the photos from the iphone 4 to later have them synched to the brand new iphone 5s, Itunes was not able to just copy the photos from the iphone into the pc, but rather copying the pictures from the PC into the iphone 4, removing all existing photos.
    Also, icloud could not be used because I have more than 5gbs in photos.
    Now the problem is that i got a new Ipad, and I would like to got into my ipad all the pictures from my iphone 4 and iphone 5s. Again icloud is not enough due to the 5gb limit.
    How could i proceeed to merge both libraries and have them successfully synced in all my devices?
    Thank you very much in advance

    Also, icloud could not be used because I have more than 5gbs in photos.
    iCloud does not store your photos anyway. The photo streams are only a temporary storage to stream new photos between your devices. You could use the shared streams as long-term storage, but shared streams store the photos only at a reduced quality. The photo stream does not count agains your iCloud storage, so that would not matter. (see:  iCloud: iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ)
    If you have iPhoto on your iPhones, you could transfer your photos from your iPhones to your PC using iTunes Photo Sharing, see this Help document:
    http://help.apple.com/iphoto/iphone/2.0/?handbuch#blnkee26bc1f
    Save photos to your computer using iTunes
    Connect your iOS device to your computer.
    Tap a photo, album, event, web journal, or slideshow and tap > iTunes.
    Tap Selected, or change the photos you want to save (if you are saving a slideshow skip to step 4):
    Select different photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap one or more photos, and tap Next.
    Select a range of photos: Tap Choose Photos, tap Range, tap the first and last photos in the range, and tap Next.
    Select all the photos in an album or event: Tap All.
    In iTunes, click the button for your device and click Apps at the top of the window.
    Below File Sharing, select iPhoto (in Apps).
    Select the Shared Photos folder under iPhoto Documents.
    Click Save To and select the location on your computer where you want to save the items.
    To view your photos, go to the Finder and look in the location you selected above.

  • How to get MobileMe photo galleries into iWeb or from Aperture?

    I currenlty use MobileMe for an iWeb  published site, on which I have a link to a several dozen photo galleries, all pub;ished from Aperture.  iPhoto has an iWeb "button", but Aperture does not so far as I can see.  I am trying to find the easiest way to keep all of my stuff intact once MM dies next year.  How can I migrate, not link, my MM photo galleries into iWeb, and/or publish them from Aperture into iWeb?  Once I have the photo galleries as part of iWeb, then I'll be able to use it to publish to another web hosting service.  Thanks!

    Do you have the original image files used to make up those MMe Galleries?  If so you can group them into albums in iPhoto and use the iWeb Album page or Photos page and ignore the MMe galleries.
    If the files are in Aperture and there's no Aperture section in iWeb's Media Browser you will have to export those files out of Aperture as originals and drag them either into iPhoto or into an iWeb photos page.  I don't use Aperture so an unsure of what can be done between Aperture and iWeb.
    If those galleries are the only copy of the photos you have you'll need to download the file (if the gallery allows it) and import into iPhoto before going into iWeb.
