Is it possible to adjust the placement of a still image within a clip in iMovie?

If I place a portrait format image in iMovie and click "Allow black" the image is automatically centred. I would like to range the still image to the left or right to allow for text etc within the frame, but I can't seem to find anything relating to this.

Here's one way you could do it.
First, create a project with just the still images you wan to use in your final project.  Basically a slide show of the images you'll being using with their durations adjusted to approximate what they'll be in the final project.
Now Share that slideshow using Export using QuickTime and the Movie to Quicktime setting.  Import the resulting movie as a new event in iMovie.
Next, start your final project.  You'll want to lay down a clip of black first.  If you don't have one lying around you can create on by adding a title with a black background but no text in it.
Now, with Advanced Tools checkin in iMovie>Preference select on of the still images in the event you just created and place it over the black clip and drop it in as picture in picture.  Using the picture in picture adjustment you can move the still around in the frame.

    Yep - I was only looking at Text Size.
    But still, not sure what the deal is. The "1" is just as readable as any other number on the keyboard regardless.

    Here's the solution I used to solve the same problem.

    A warning about editing the Master pages--it only edits them in that book--it doesn't update the theme. So if you go to create another book with those same layouts, you'll have to duplicate the book and replace all the images. An alternative would be to create a "clean" book with no photos in it and then just use that as a starting point each time.

  • Is it possible to undo the Ken Burns effect on all photos at once in iMovie, rather than clicking "crop" and "fit" on each individual photo?

    Is it possible to undo the Ken Burns effect on all photos at once in iMovie, rather than clicking "crop" and "fit" on each individual photo?

    Hey Villiam,  Kevin is referring to setting a movement on a photo setting keyframes (like zoom out to in), right-clicking on Motion, and choose save as preset.  This will put that movement into your presets folder under Effects.  I am going to try this on my next montage and see if I can find some efficiencies.  Thanks Kevin, that was a great tip!!! 
    Also thanks to Jim.  I spent like 30 min looking at all the keyboard shortcuts.  It's a little overwhelming to establish a solid shortcut format that a team of editors can learn and use.  I'm going to be trying the FCP short cuts, then go back to the default.  It looks like the PR default has a lot of existing and helpful shortcuts assigned already.  It's just going to take getting used to a new platform. 
    I'm still looking for tools and/or methods to allow an editor to assemble a 60 second montage with 10 photos, VO and music in 30 minutes.  It's going to be a challenge but I think it's possible with the right innovative process.  I'll still challenge anyone to find a way to quickly assemble a montage in an assembly line or template-based fashion using Adobe Premiere CC where there's on-screen text, advanced transitions, timed to VO, etc. 
    I think I'm dreaming for a tool to automatically do this within Premiere, while I think the answer for now might just be customizing motion presets and creating a favorites folder of transitions that can be dragged onto each clip.  I'll see if there’s a way to apply a set of transitions or motion presets to a series of photos on the timeline opposed to doing it one by one.  I can see this solution being important as video montages are becoming more popular in our industry, and the faster we can make them using a professional software package like Premiere the more prosperous we will be. 

  • Is it possible to adjust the proccessor speed?

    From core duo temp , I find that my macbook is usually running at 1.5ghz. I am wondering if anybody knows if it is possible to manually adjust the speed maybe down to 1.33 , to cool the macbook down?
    Thanks for any responses.

    As far as I've seen there is no supported way of throttling down your processors, and surely no way to "overclock" (speed up) your processor(s).
    I have seen some sites listing ways it is actually possible to overclock some Macs, but I'm not sure if it is a possibility with the Intel macs.
    If there is a way to throttle the speed of the Core Duo then it's gonna be through some third party software, google is your friend. :P

  • Is it possible to adjust the photo angle and size in Snapshots theme

    Hi
    I'm new to aperture and am having a few frustrated-hair-pulling issues with the Snapshots theme. I was using iPhoto to create a Photobook of my son's first year and found it to be too limited for what I want to create. I came across Aperture and was wow'ed by the description saying I could rotate and resize photos, add text boxes etc. This was just what I was after so I downloaded the free trial to test it. I like the snapshots theme the best for the idea of it looking more "homemade" but seem to be unable to adjust the photo angle and size from the given templates. Also I find that the border in adding new photos (which I can adjust the size and rotation of) is without the custom shadow effect that the template ones have. Duplicating the template photo only gives one with the shadow effect but also of the same size with the same rotation that I can't do anything with! Rrrrghhhh
    I thought this would be a great way to customize the album I'm making for my little boy, and that it wouldn't be too hard! My mac skills are considerable, but I'm by no means an expert! Is this program too much for a non-pro-creative-housewife with a wish that may be solveable in iPhoto afterall?
    Or am I just missing something? Is there a way to do this or shall I just give up and choose another theme?
    Any recommendations are welcome! Please!!! My scalp is now officially sore!

  • ? Flash CS4, Is it possible to adjust the length of multiple timelines at once?

    Hi,
    I am using Flash CS4. Is there any way to adjust the length of multiple timelines at once? I am doing an animation of leaves falling from a tree. The leaves alone have 17 separate timelines on separate layers plus each has it's own guide layer.
    If I had the ability to to select all of the timelines together and adjust all of their respective start and end times at the same same time, relative to each other as well as separately, life would be so much easier!
    Of course I can do it timeline by timeline, no problem, but I can't seem to adjust the length of more than one timeline at a time. (no pun intended)
    Even when I select more than one timeline, the double arrow only adjusts the length of one timeline. Even each guide layer's length has to be adjusted separately. I understand the benefit of this, but, testing timing and making adjustments would be so much simpler and go so much faster if I could select and drag multiple timeline lengths at the same time.
    Is there any way to do this?
    I'm new to Flash so, thanks in advance for your patience with me!
    SabelV

    Thanks! I had a feeling. It's nice to have the answer. Oh well, now I can get back to work and not waste any more time with that part of the puzzle. You've been very helpful and I'm sure your answer is correct.  Wish I knew how to rate your answer even higher. Thanks again!

  • Is it possible to adjust the strength of the bluetooth radio on the iPhone?

    Hi,
    I am attempting to use the iPhone bluetooth to control a third party device that also has bluetooth. Unfortunately, when I send an instruction from the iPhone to the device, the device and the iPhone become unpaired and the instruction is lost. I have heard that increasing the strength of the bluetooth signal could fix this problem. How would I go about adjusting the power setting of the bluetooth radio? (battery life is not a concern here). Or is there another way to solve this problem?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

  • Is it possible to adjust the download speed?

    I was just wondering if there was a way to adjust the download speed of iTunes. Reason being, I want to be able to download music or whatever but just at a lower speed (like in the background) so I can still do whatever else I want and not have to worry about lag. That way I don't have to worry about pausing and resuming all the time.

    I know this can be done if you are using another computer in path to do some traffic shaping. Many ISPs do this for P2P program traffic.
    Yuor computer should be able to share available bandwidth between applications. Unless on of your apps is sensitive to other traffic this should be automatic.

  • Multilangual. Is it possible to adjust the language of fields due to the standardlanguage/buttons?

    Is it possible to somehow make a script that changes all texts (in a PDF) of a form to other languages? Perhaps through the standard language used on the computer or a multi select button??
    I thought to put everything into subforms and hide it, appearing if another button is clicked and hiding the original subform. Might look ugly on programmers sight, but as long as it'd work, I'd "live" with it ;)
    But is there any possibility to make the default set by the users standard language?

    I am not sure that you can get the language setting of the machine in your script or not. If not you may have to have th euser indicate which language they want. Once that is done then you can change all of the strings programmatically from a technical perspective anyways.
    Depending on the complexity of the form, you may find a point where it will affect the performance of the form. I have seen cases where changing the language can take 5-10 seconds to complete. Also you run into issues with space where as I change a caption a word in English takes 2 mm but the same word in French takes 5 mm. So you have to design the form for the worst case. This is no so bad if the form is simple but the more complex the form the more difficult this becomes.
    In many cases people will create an xml file for all language strings and merge the xml data onto the form. There are advanced binding properties that can bind the XML to the caption of a field and thus no coding is required. This is useful if you have LiveCycle server products because you can render these forms (with a language file) on demand. If you are trying to do this with a stand alone PDF (no rendering on the server) then you have no choice but to do it via script.
    OR
    Create a unique file per language.

  • Is there an easy way to adjust the touch screen on an Image Class MF7480?

    When we try to hit the System Monitor button, the Special Features button activates. It used to be that if you put your fingernail on the very bottom of the screen, you could activate the System Monitor button. It's a great printer, but this is frustrating.

    Hi Brooks!
    It sounds like cleaning the touch panel might resolve the issue. Try powering the MF7480 off and cleaning it with a clean, dry, soft cloth.  Be sure to get around the edges of the System Monitor button.  If the Special Features button still activates, the MF7480 will likely require service.  Call us at 1-800-OK CANON (652-2666), Monday - Friday, 8 AM to 8PM ET.  We can give you some service options from there.

  • Need Help Pasting Key Frames from one still image to others, and Changing the duration of multiple still images.

    I'm working on a stop motion project, and I have at least a thousand still images to work with.
    I have adjusted several Key Frame settings on the 1st still image in my project, such as
    Brightness
    Cropping
    Scale
    Position
    I now want to apply these exact settings to hundreds of still images at a time that make up one scene in the project (but not all still images in the entire project).. Is there a way to paste or easily transfer them?
    Also, there are scenes I'm working on in which I want to change the image duration of hundreds of photos at once, but not change to duration of all images in the project, is this possible?
    I've looked at several different web-links, but none of them have what I'm looking for. If you can please help me, I'd be willing to send you $10 through paypal. Knowledge is power; the solution to these problems would save me hours of time. If you don't fully understand my questions I can send you a pictures or a video, pointing out my needs.

    Stan,
    Thanks again for your input.
    When the project is created, I don't recall seeing the preference settings until after the project opens the first time.  In that case if certain media was imported into the project panel but not in the sequence, after the duration was changed, it would be necessary to remove the media from the project panel then re-import again.  If there is a workaround to this please let me know.  It also doesn't appear that creating a new sequence would prevent the re-importing.  Could you confirm?
    Thanks for the link on automating to sequence--I remember that from CS4.
    The application of identical effects to media on the timeline in a sequence was something I had learned back in CS3 or maybe earlier CS4 where the effected, in this case a transition between images was applied then copied then using the paste or (Control V) command, applied to all other stills.  That worked fine but with lots of images, it ends up being a lot of "point and clicks" since the CTI must be moved to each transition insertion point before the paste is applied. 
    I actually thought that I had seen someone select the remainder of the images in the sequence then apply the paste command but I was never able to make that work.  Have you heard of such a short-cut?
    Much thanks again!!

  • How can I find the file size of an image within an iPhoto event or album?

    In order to see the file size of any particular photo, I've been dragging a copy onto my desktop and using "get info." Is there a better way?
    I'm using 10.7.4 and iPhoto 11 v 9.3.2

    1. That's only getting the file size of the Preview.
    2. Click on a photo to select it. Then click on the info button. You can get the dimensions and the file size in the top of the pane
    Note that the final size of any image will depend on the export settings you choose.
