I want to laydown a voiceover and then edit images to the VO track

I like to write a script, record the voiceover track and then edit the pictures/video to the voiceover track. In iMovie 08 it seems you have to edit images first and then lay down voiceover track. Any suggestions on how I can record VO first?
Thanks!

You create a one second black matte and then PIN your audio track to it.
Then pull-out the green audio bar to it's full length.
Now you can place stills and video clips above the audio.
BUT, you'll have a hard time aligning the video to points in audio. Make that a very hard time.
I suppose you could play the audio and pause at each point and write down the timecode.
Now create image segments to match the duration of the segments.
Better to go with FCE for this type of work.

  • I have about 300 podcasts in my itunes account.  They are all checked.  I want to uncheck them all and then just check back the ones I want to sync to my Ipod. Is there a way to select all and then uncheck them?

    I have about 300 podcasts in my itunes account.  They are all cheked so they sync to my Ipod.  I want to uncheck them all at once and then check just the ones I want to sync.  Is there a way to do a "select all" vs having to uncheck them one at a time?

    Plug in your ipod and navigate to it in itunes, then select the 'Podcast' tab from along the top.
    The first line where it says 'Automatically include' then two drop down boxes saying 'all unplayed' and 'all episodes' need changing.
    Change the drop down box that says 'all episodes' so that it reads 'selected episodes'
    You should then be able to go through your collection below and check only the podcasts you want to sync.
    You can do this show by show or if you clickt the show itself in this window, on a podcast by podcast basis.
    You can use these to drop down boxes to set all kinds of rules for syncing your podcasts, such as
    syncing all the latest podcasts, or just all of them or even the last 5 recent podcasts.
    I tend to go for 'Automatically include [all unplayed] of [selected episodes]
    Then just choose which podcasts I want to listen too,
    Hopefully this picture will help you find your way ^_^

  • Renaming masters and then editing in photoshop, the name reverts back...

    So, if do a batch rename on a bunch of raw files to example 1.NEF, then example 2.NEF and so on, I select apply to masters. It works fine, even if I export the masters, with the master name, it shows the new name. No problem.
    However, if I right click in aperture and select edit in photoshop on one of the aforementioned masters, then the new PSD file that is created has the original name as it was from the camera! What the heck?
    Am I missing something?

    Let's look at what's happening in the background: (tested or managed library)
    In the Pictures folder is the Aperture library.
    A typical master might be in a folder year>month>date>subfolder.
    On sending to Photoshop a PSD (or tiff) is created and stored with the master.
    This is edited and returned.
    In the Previews folder year>month>date>subfolder>subfolder is found a jpg with the original name (there are also thumbnails and faces files).
    This seems to be picked up when the edited file comes back from Photoshop.
    More research neeeded!

  • Bought a new macbook and want to manually manage music onto my iphone 4s but when i click 'manually manage' and then 'apply' i get the message saying it will erase everything already on there. Need help please!

    Bought a new macbook and want to manually manage music onto my iphone 4s (as it is already full of music from old windows laptop) but when i click 'manually manage' and then 'apply' i get the message saying it will erase everything already on there. Need help please!

    Before you sync your iPhone make sure that all the music that was synced to your phonereviously has been copied to your iTunes on the new MacBook Pro. Then when you connect your phone you will be able to either sync all music or select only those playlists that you want on the phone.

  • Can you transfer hd video directly from an ipod and then EDIT that video in imovie? I will be on the road and wont have a mac, just an ipad 2 and ipod touch. I want to shoot video on the touch and edit it on the ipad. Thanks!

    Thanks Tgara.
    Its funny. So far the responses have been 50/50 on this question. I even asked two seperate Apple Store employees here in NYC, and got two different answers! One said yes, the other no.
    Argh!
    I know from watching the keynote speech about icloud and iOS 5 that you will be able to cut the cord between the pc and ios devices like the ipad. No more need to sync them via a cord. So will that mean i would then be able to load video directly to the ipad via tha cam kit connector from my ipod? Also i wonder if/when Apple will allow HD video from on Apple devices like a canon dslr to be able to transfer to the ipad via the cam kit connector AND be able to EDIT that footage in imovie for the ipad. Speaking of imovie for the ipad...i hope it gets an update soon as well.
    Anyway....with the macbook airs getting updated next week with thunderbolt and new sandy bridge chips....i may just get one of them instead of the ipad 2 for editing video on the road. Still...i prefer surfing the web experience on the ipad. Grrrrrrr. **** youuuuuuu Apple!!! Lol

    I want to add airport express.  I now have time capsule and I am confuse.  Do I setup the express and then time capsule to the express?

    Setup the Express to wirelessly extend the Time Capsule, or vice versa depending on which one is already set up. Or you could use bridge mode which involves using an Ethernet cable or Powerline plugs.

    after hibernation, when trying to login to MacBook Air, it does not accept my password. I have to shut off and then get prompted with the following: Mac OS X wants to use the "login" keychain. I put in the password there and it works. any suggestions?

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
    Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
    Select
    Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

  • Is there a way to select MULTIPLE tabs and then copy ALL of the the URLs and titles/or URLs+titles+HTML links? This can be done with the Multiple Tab Handler add on; However, I prefer to use a Firefox feature rather than download an add on. Thanks.

    Currently, I can copy ONE tab's url and nothing else (not its name). Or I can bookmark all tabs that are open.

    Hi LRagsdale517,
    You should definitely be able to upload multiple files by Shift-clicking or Ctrl-clicking the files you want to upload. Just to make sure you don't have an old version of the service cached, please clear the browser cache and then log in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/files. After clicking the File Upload icon in the upper-right corner, you should be able so select multiple files for upload.
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,

  • HT201401 My iphone 4s turned off properly but when I went to put it back the apple icon came on and then an image I have never seen before of a ubs pointiing towards the word itunes in a circle.  And the phone no longer goes beyond this message.  meltdown

    My phone started acting up and I noticed my text messages were not being sent.  So I turned my iphone off.  My iphone 4s turned off properly but when I went to put it back the apple icon came on and then an image I have never seen before of a UBS pointiing towards the word itunes in a circle.  And the phone no longer goes beyond this message.  I try to turn it off and on again and same message over and over.  If I hit the any button on the phone nothing happens. Does anyone know what this means or seen this itunes messaging ?  meltdown? Please help.

    Hello Raja,
    Thank you so much for your response.  I had these photos backed up on iCloud but, had I not, its good to have an alternate solution as the one you suggested.  Actually, I went to the Apple store today and yes, you are absolutely correct Restoring in iTunes will result in permanent loss of photos unless backed up somewhere such as iCloud or other solution.  Well, what they did was restore the phone in itunes ( I did not have iTunes downloaded to my computer which is why it did not work when I went to do it myself, I needed to go to the iTunes site and go to the download iTunes button because my windows based HP laptop does not come with itunes already downloaded).  This retoration process took a while and I was forced to upgrade to the latest 7.1 iOS software which I was not too happy about -sometimes you like the way things work now :-)  Anyhow, they said this restoration request happens as a result of a software update (which I was NOT in progress of an update or doing an update) or sometimes when you remove the power cable too quickly from the iphone (which I do not recall doing this either but...). Since I had backed up on iCloud all of the photos were downloaded back on my iphone 4s.  Best of all was that my phone was back up and runnning and there was NO CHARGE at the apple store for this service of restoring my phone.  Well, I just wanted to share the results and I appreciate all the responses and support I received.  Thank you kindly.

  • How do I copy and paste an image form the internet to Keynote. I have done this successfully in the past by selecting copy and then paste by using the right click function and now am unable to do so. I am thinking it is an outdate OS problem...not sure.

    How do I copy and paste an image from the internet to Keynote. I have done so successfully in the paste by using the copy and paste right click functions but am unable to do so now. That was about a year ago that I attempted that I was able to do this. Thank you for your help.

    Some images are copy-protected.
    If all else fails, you can make a screen shot of the image: 
    With the image visible in your browser, press CMD-Shift-4 and your cursor will change to crosshairs.
    Position the cross hairs at one of the corners of what you want to copy and drag to the opposite corner, then release the mouse. An copy of the image will be saved to your desktop.
    You can now edit and use this image.
    Be sure to respect copyrights.
