I wish to export several still images from iMovie as JPEG or TIFF. Is it possible to do this using iMovie, if so how? Any advice is greatly appreciated. I've already managed to add a freeze frame to extract the desired frame but I can't export it. Thanks.

I wish to export several frames from iMovie as if they were images (like JPEGs or TIFFs). Is it possible to do this using iMovie, if so how? Any advice is greatly appreciated. I've already managed to 'add a freeze frame' to isolate the desired frames but I can't export it. Thanks.

Ach... I found a solution thanks to previous posts which came to light after I'd posted what was obviously a question that had been asked before.

  • How do you export a still image from a sequence ?

    I could easily export a frame as still image in CS3 (File / export / ...)
    But how do you do this in CS4 ??... Adobe found another way of making something simple so difficult !...  I try to export media, then select a still image format, make sure ''export sequence'' is *not* selected, but when I look at the output, what I get is not where I had stopped the cursor and appeared on the monitor, but I get the first frame of the sequence instead.
    What am I doing wrong here ?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Your way should work, it worked for me.
    Try reading this:
    Select a clip in the Project panel or a Timeline.
    Choose File > Export > Media.
    In the Export Settings dialog box, select a still-image format from the Format menu. See Export Settings Format options.
    If tabs are not visible below the Summary pane, click the Advanced Mode button.
    On the Video tab, deselect the Export As Sequence option (if it is selected).
    (Optional) To deinterlace the frame, select Progressive from the Field Type menu.
    (Optional) To correct the pixel aspect ratio for display on computer screens, select Square Pixels from the Aspect menu.
    Click the Output Name hot text.
    Browse to the location where you want to save the still-image file, type a filename for it, and click Save.
    In the Export Settings viewing area, drag the playhead to the frame you want to export as a still image.
    Click OK.
    Check no.10 did you drag the playhead in the export settings viewing area? Or did you do that on the timeline?
    Good luck.

  • How can I export a full image from flash to jpeg?

    Hi,
    First of all hello to everybody.
    Could somebody give a  hand with this? I am trying to export a flash image to jpeg. I can do it but the image is cropped when I open it in photoshop. This is the original image (is is an screenshot and not exported with flash):
    [IMG]http://www.flickr.com/photos/22338638@N06/4615821418/[/IMG]
    And this is the image exported with flash (as you can see it is cropped on the right):
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/22338638@N06/4615821566/
    Why is the second image cropped?
    I would really welcome any help.
    Thanks,

  • Exporting HQ still image from clips

    I seem to recall reading about how to do this a few years ago here. Didn't need it then. Now that I need it, can't find it!
    What I need: Still shots exported from Final Cut Studio 7.0.3 to be used on website. I'd like them to stay VERY near the quality they are.
    A link or step by step would be great.
    Cheers.

    Or if you don't have Photoshop, export the image as directed and open it in the app Preview.
    Go to the menu Tools > Adjust Size and choose Fit In To 1280 X 720
    !http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/PreviewResize.jpg!
    Then save it in this size.
    Hope this helps.

  • Create and export a still image form video?

    How do I create and then export a still image from my video? Is it the same as freeze frame? It seems like that is different? I looked on youtube and a guy was telling how to do it, but he said to go up to share at the top and it is not there on my version. I think perhaps he was using an older version.. So to cut to the chase.. How do I create a still photo form my vdieo then export it to desktop or iphoto?

    You seem to have added to "Save Current Frame" option to the destinations, but you are not using, if what you are outputting is a video file and not a still image file.
    Now, click Next..., choose a file name and folder to save it on. That is just that.

  • Dragging a large still image from the browser into the viewer crashes FCP

    Okay, I've not seen this problem until just a couple days ago but was wondering if it was just me or if everyone has this problem? I've found a work-around, but let me explain the problem first.
    I'm creating a growing up photo montage. I scanned all of the pictures myself at 300 dpi (as I've always done in the past) and saved them as TIF files. Some pictures as relatively small, i.e. 3.5 mb is size and do just fine, but it appears anytime I drop a picture into the viewer in preparation for the the timeline, it will crash FCP if the image file is any larger than about 5 or 5.5 MB. Now I know there is a limit on the resolution of a still and it shouldn't be any larger than 4000 pixels in either direction, but that is not my problem, the problem appears to occur with large files. I've used large still files before in past projects without any problem, so this is why I'm stumped. I've went as far as trashing my preferences, but that didn't change anything. I've even tested a still image from a past project that was something around 9 MB (or was it 19 mb?) in any case, it also crashed FCP but... I've used that picture before in past projects without any problem. I even created a new test project just in case my project file itself had a problem.
    My work-around is to simply drop the still image from the browser directly into the timeline, thus bypassing the viewer. This works every time without a hitch. I can even double-click on the still now setting in the timeline to load it into the viewer so I can add effects or keyframes or whatever without any problems (thank goodness). So, has anyone else experienced this problem or is it just me?

    Is this image saved in a colorspace mode that is anything other than RGB?
    CMYK & Grayscale images will cause problems.
    Some light reading regarding your choice of 300 dpi: http://www.scantips.com/no72dpi.html
    Unless you plan on panning and zooming your images, the best procedure is to use one of the video preset templates in Photoshop and paste your content into it. Scale and position using the Transform controls. For best results save as a TIFF without compression. Don't forget, always in RGB colorspace.

  • Is there a way to export still images from Quicktime or do I need Quicktime Pro (and is Quicktime Pro even still a thing?)

    I'm sure there used to be an option "export to still image" but not any more.
    Do I need to switch to Quicktime Pro? I used to have it back in my P.C. days but I'm not sure if Quicktime Pro is even a thing any more.
    I don't want to go down the "screen grab" option because my source footage is larger than the screen size and so I want to do my cropping after I've exported the stills, not before.

    I played a little with live trace in CS5. Seems to do quite a good job if I had the right contrast between the blood (white stuff) and the myocardium (the dark circular wall surrounding the white round area). Picture one is the contrasted picture taken off a dicom medium (these media allow adjusting the contrast very well). Left ventricle is the smiley face on the right of image. The right ventricle is on the left, kind of D shaped. The second picture is the live trace image (with "make and expand" selection). I selected the image with the "direct selection tool (A)", then used the live trace with make and expand. The tracing can not be seen here, but it is very accurate.
    The third image is the same MRI image as in picture one without contrast adjustment. Live trace did bad - fourth picture.

  • Exporting many still images

    The thread on exporting a still image reminds me to ask how you can export a whole series of stills. I often want to export a lot of stills from a film to use in graphics programmes but wonder if there is a way to do this without having to work my way through each individual clip. On a previous editing system I used to create a whole lot of one frame clips and then exported selection of them all and they appeared as tifs (or whatever). Does FCP have something similar. I have feeling that I once did something similare using batch export but cannot remember how even when I re read the help.

    I used to create a whole lot of one frame clips and then exported selection of them all and they appeared as tifs (or whatever). Does FCP have something similar<<</div>
    Yes it does. Once you've assembled the frames you want to export, set an IN and OUT point, the go to File->Export->Using QuickTime Conversion. In the export window, choose "Image Sequence" and then choose the file format you want from the OPTIONS button. Make sure you create a folder for the files to go into.

  • Can I capture a still image from a quicktime movie?

    Can I capture a still image from a quicktime movie?

    Yes. But how you do it depends on your version of quicktime.
    If you have the pro version, you can easily use the "Export" option to output the video as a series of images.
    For the basic version of quicktime, or if you want to quickly take make a still image of a single frame, you could just use the "Grab" application in OSX to take a screen shot.

  • How can I export a still picture from a video clip?

    How can I export a still picture from a video clip?

    I'm able to export stills from iMovie without anything extra. I create a new project - call it Exports say. Now, in your event clip with the frames you want as stills, select a single frame and drag it into your project. Repeat for other stills you want to export. Then choose Share -> Export Using QuickTime.
    In the pop-up, choose Movie to Image Sequence. Click Options and choose the image format you want. Playing with the number of stills lets you pick how many stills you want from each second of video. Hit OK and the stills will be generated in the directory you choose.
    I've only done this with HD video. Don't know how well it works with lower res, interlaced vid.

  • How can I take a still image from a video?

    How can I take a still image from a video?

    I'll assume you want to create a still to use outside FCPX, not a still frame within FCPX.  It's kinda hidden in the "share."  Go File/Share/Add Destination.  You want "Save Current Frame."  After you've created that destination, it'll be there for you in the future under Share.

    Hi Ashley Clavette,
    The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
    When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what  exactly happens ?  Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?
