Insert pictures in trailers in iMovie '11

Hi everyone,
I need your help about iMovie. I've created a trailer with one of the 15 proposed by iMovie.
My issue is that I would like to insert pictures in the trailer, not only videos. But I can't find the
way to do it, and I'm wondering if it's possible... And if it's yes, how can I do !!!
Thanks for your help

Click FILE/CONVERT TO PROJECT.
This will turn your trailer into a regular project and you can add photos.

Insert pictures and video

Hello,
How can I insert videocuts into a show I recorded myself? I am in the studio, presenting a show and during the presentation I want to show pictures and video to the audience.
* I wil first record the show in our studio
* And then I insert pictures and video on certain places in the recorded show.
Is this possible in Imovie 8 or in one of the older imovies.
Or must I use finalcut for this?
Thanks! Richard - The Netherlands

Hello, Richard,
I have not used iMovie 8 much, so don't know about doing this in that version, but you can easily do this in iMovie HD 6.
I am not sure exactly how you want to do this. It depends on whether you want to place those photos and other video clips OVER the recorded show, so that the audio from the recorded show plays while the photos and videos are displayed, or if you want to have them ADDED in the midst of the recorded show.
If you just want to insert photos and videos in the midst of your recorded show, first import your recorded show into iMovie6. Put it in the timeline. Move the playhead to the point where you want the first photo, and do a 'split video at playhead' command, drag the photos/videos to the time line there. They will be added between the split video clips. Repeat for all the photos/videos.
It sounds as if the option you want is 'Paste Over at Playhead' which allows the photos and videos you add to be seen over the recorded show, so that the audio plays continually. In tv and movies this is done when someone is talking about something and then there is a 'cut-away' to a photo or video clip of whatever the person is describing so the audience can visualize what he is saying while he is speaking.
Here are instructions for doing that from iMovie HD6 Help:
*Inserting video clips or photos in a passage while maintaining running audio*
+You can paste a new video clip or photo over an existing clip while retaining the audio from the original clip. The video cuts away to a new picture, but you continue to hear the sound from the original clip.+
+To replace images in a clip while maintaining running audio:+
+Choose iMovie HD > Preferences, and then click General.+
+Select the "Extract audio when using Paste Over at Playhead" checkbox.+
+Select the video or photo that you want to insert.+
+Choose Edit > Cut or Copy.+
+Do one of the following:+
+To paste the entire video you selected in step 3, position the playhead at the first frame to be replaced. When you paste the clip, it will replace a portion of video equal to its length.+
+To paste over a specific segment of your movie, select the part of the video clip you want to paste over. (To learn more about selecting part of a video clip, see Related Topics below.)+
+If the video you're pasting is longer than the selected frame range, the excess video will not be pasted. If the video you're pasting is shorter than the selected frame range, the extra space will be filled with a color clip (or the still image, if you paste a still image).+
+Choose Advanced > "Paste Over at Playhead."+
+The audio track of the original video is retained and appears in audio track 1 of the timeline viewer.+
Post back if this does not address what you are trying to do.

? inserting pictures-what setting do I have wrong

What setting do I need to change so that iMovie won't automatically change the durations of pics and transitions when I add a new picture?
I am making a slideshow in iMovie with pictures, transitions, music....but when I add a new picture to the slideshow, iMovie changes the durations of the pics and transitions surrounding the new pic.
How do I make it keep the durations I have set even when I make changes to the slideshow?

iMovie will assume you want to keep the overall length of the movie the same when adding transitions. So it will "borrow" a few frames from the slide before and after the transition to create the transition, and the overall length of the project is preserved. A transition, therefore, can be no longer than half the length of the shortest slide or clip that is immediately before or after the transition.
With photos, it is possible to keep the photos the same length and make the project longer. To do this, you can set a global duration for photos in Project Properties. This, however, requires you to set all photos to the same length, so I am not sure it will be useful to you.
This may help you to understand how it all works:
NTSC = 30 frames per second
PAL = 25 frames per second
I ran an experiment on NTSC, and here is how it works. First with stills, then with video clips.
First do the math in Frame mode.
NTSC still 3:00>transition 1:00 >clip 3:00
convert to frames
clip 90 frames > transition 30 frames > clip 90 frames
This implies that originally you had stills that were 3:15 (=105 frAMES) long with no transitions.
Two clips each 105 frames long. Put a transition between of 30 frames. Divide by two to get 15 frames subtracted from each side. Now you have 3:00 (=90 frames), transition of 30 frames, next still of 90 frames. Total frames still equals 210.
Now change transition to 1:15 (=45 frames). Divide by 2 and round down = 22 frames subtracted from each side. Now you have still of 105-23 = 82 frames, transition of 44 frames, still of 82 frames. The overall total is still 210.
Now let's look at a different case. Delete the transition, and set the length of the photos with no transitions to 3:15 (105 frames).
Now, go into File/Project Properties/Timing, and put a check next to Photo Duration:Applies to all photos.
Now, the photos will stay the same even when you add transitions, but the project gets longer.
Original still of 105, still of 105 = 210
Insert transition of 30 frames
Now we have still of 105, transition of 30, still of 105, and the total = 240. The project got longer by 30 frames, but the photos kept their original length.
For Video, start with 2 clips of 4 seconds each (= 120 frames each)
Add 1 second transition. Clips are now 105 frames then 30 frame transistion. Total frames still 240.
Change transition to 45 frames. Clips are now 98 frames plus 44 second transition. Total frames still 240.
Hope that helps.

Is there a way to create a picture from video in iMovie 11

Is there a way to create a jpg picture from video in imovie?
I have noticed several work arounds which are not so easy. This was previously a feature that was very helpful to put in stills in the drop zones in idvd from your video project. Only makes sense. Why has it been removed?

See my post here.

Insert picture and sound without external sources

how can we insert pictures and sound without using external sources??
i mean , i want to make the picture somehow embeded inside the program, not from external source,
can any1 help?/

I sense that what you need to do is create a Jar (java archive) file for your code and images and any other resources. Do a search on the forum for the terms -- jar pictures getresource -- and you'll get a ton of helpful threads. Also check Google. Some useful links:

How to include the insert picture option in the PDF form?

Hi, Can some one please help How to include the insert picture option in the PDF form? I am using acrobat XI pro and trying to use an evaluation form which requires to insert product pictures.

Inserting Pictures in an email

Can someone help me figure out what the procedure is for getting the second window to come up for inserting a picture into your email.
I hold my finger down on the screen until the copy paste panel appears with an arrow at the right side which is supposed to take you to the
second screen where the insert picture is but most of the time it just disappears and you have to keep trying until it finally shows up.

If you're using Mail on your iPhone, your best bet is to do this:
Go into your photo stream, or camera roll, by selecting "Photos" from your apps.
Press "Select" in the upper righthand corner of the screen.
Tap each picture you want to include in the email, which will place a blue and white checkmark on each photo selected.
When you've finished selecting the photo(s) you want to email, tap the icon in the lower lefthand corner of your screen, which looks like a box with an up arrow in it. From the options that come up, choose "Mail" or "Email" (I don't recall offhand which it is).
This will allow you to create a new email message with the selected photo(s) attached.
If your'e trying to use a different email application, or email the photos in a different fashion, please provide me with more details so I can try to help you.

When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose " button is gone. What have I done wrong?

Hi Liz,
Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem. Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File", then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine. I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1). I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do.
The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu, when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.
I am now a happy camper.
I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto, that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"?
Good luck Liz, if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

Inserting Picture (from Web- through Webdav) to Word document using VSTO code

Hi,
I have been trying to insert an image/picture to current selection in word. with help of code -
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.InlineShape s = this.Application.Selection.InlineShapes.AddPicture(
@"http://127.0.0.1:9001/test/myimage.png", true, true, Type.Missing);
This code works fine if image is on desktop or network shared location but some issues for URL exposed through Webdav.
On inserting the picture word shows - "The linked image cannot be displayed....." message. If we close and open word document again then image appears properly.
Some observations:
1. If we use same option through Ribbon "Insert -> Picture -> Enter path and click on "Link to File" then we get Prompt for Wevdav password (Only once, later Word caches it) and linked images appear properly.
2. Updating the shape explicitly wouldnt help.
s.LinkFormat.Update();
What we are looking for is, Does Ribbon "Insert" functionality do something additional to prompt Webdav authentication to cache? if we want to achieve the same? what needs to be invoked before we make call to AddPicture API?
Thanks
H

Thanks for the response..
No, when document is opened again, then you dont need to enter the password.
Somehow on document open event MS word knows how to retreive password from cookie for given domain.
When you insert the image using ribbon -> insert picture option,
MS Word first looks into cache if the domain cokkie already available then bypass authentication/password prompt
Otherwise it would show the prompt and store the cookie in cache again.
The mystry is how MS-Word interacts with this "cached cookies"
while doing more reading on this, it seems MS Word has been using Klink.dll for this kind of functionality https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/899927 but it would be great if you can provide more pointers.
>>Could you share an image link of Webdav?
Since, it's my local webdav server, you would not be able to access the image link, may be you can upload an image to sharepoint (as sharepoint also supports webdav) and use that for reproducing this problem at your end.
Thanks
H

Contribute CS4 +Blogger and inserting pictures

I'm not fluent in Contribute, but I used to be able to insert
pictures when I published to Blogger. I checked my connection,
etc., and everything works with text; however, when I hit the
button for inserting a picture, it is grayed out. When I went back
to Contribute CS3 and tried the same thing, I inserted the picture
but I got a message saying the document couldn't be published
because it included pictures that were local. I had no success with
pictures from the option of the internet, either.
I tried signing in to Blogger, but the screen I got was the
Blogger editor.
I'd appreciate any help as I really want to use Contribute
but I'm at a standstill as to what to do. According to what I've
seen, inserting a picture should be as simple as dragging from an
application -

I appreciate your answer to my question. I have purchsed several books on Flash CS4, including Adobes own Classroom in a Book for Flash CS4. The problem is that none of them show a tutorial on how to do this. I am hoping that you can give a more lengthy description of how to accomplish this task. I'm having a problem invisioning how the movieclip is created with my page. For instance, imagine that my primary page size is 1000 X 750. I want to create a scrollable page that includes text and photos. That page might be 800 X 2000. Therefore it would have a verticle scroll. How do I begin to arrange the text and pictures on such a long page? Do I create a completely different Flash CS4 page that is sized to 800 X 2000? Then insert all of my text and pictures. Do a "select all" and save a s a movieclip? Then this becomes the source for the scrollpane? I've searched all day yesterday on the net and cannot find a tutorial on this subject. It is a staic page by the way. Nothing will ever change or get loaded. Thanks for the help!
