Is it possible to rotate video horiz/vert?

As a photographer, I frequently turn my camera vertically to shoot. Well, the new camera has video capabilities, and I did the same thing without thinking.
Is there a way to rotate the video clip the way photos can be rotated? I have checked QTPro and iMovie without success...

i believe you can use Windows Movie Maker in Windows 7 to do this. google will be your best bet on finding instructions, though.

  • Is it possible to rotate video from the iPhone 4 90 degrees?

    I'm a newbie and unfortunately shot a bunch of HD video with my iPhone 4 in a vertical format - now on playback it's rotated 90 degrees to the right. Is there any way to rotate the video 90 degrees to the left so it appears correctly on playback? I don't mind if it gets cropped, I just want to be able to see it correctly. Thanks!

  • Possible to rotate video shot in portrait to landscape?

    So I shot a video holding the camera in portrait orientation (vertical). When I streamed the video to my Apple TV, instead of rotating the image to fit the full screen, the video is a thin strip down the center of the screen (maintaining the portrait orientation). On iOS I am able to lock the screen orientation so I can turn the phone sideways and see the video properly (otherwise the same thing happens in landscape mode), however this has no effect on Apple TV. Perhaps the physical video cable might make a difference but I don't have one to test, nor would that solve the bigger problem of exporting the video into other applications.
    This seems incredibly counter-intuitive to the way video cameras have always worked. That is, regardless of how a camera is positioned, the video is always played back in the proper orientation so that it fills the screen. I can not think of a single application where I would want my video displayed as a thin strip down the center of a screen.

    So I imported it into iPhoto, in which i can see the rotate button, but does not appear to allowthea rotate function. I then opened it in QuickTime and again found no way to alter the orientation. Finally I imported it into iMovie, and was surprised there was no way to correct the screen orientation there either. iPhone and Quicktime simply created vertical windows for playback, while iMovie constrained the portrait 1280 height into a vertical 720, and stretched the portrait 720 width across the 1280 horizontal. Completely unacceptable!!
    Surely there is a simple way to do this that I am simply overlooking?

    Yes, iMovie 9 will do this, which I had to upgrade to. It is still a rather convoluted process, but at least it can be done.
    As for holding the camera horizontally in the future, well that is not always practical. It is much easier to hold onto the camera vertically, as well as for stability.
    However, I did discover something ... the iPhone does not seem to change orientation during filming regardless of how the phone is held. Evidently whatever orientation the camera is in when recording starts, is the orientation the rest of the movie will be in, regardless of whether it changes for the remaining movie or not.
    So, in order to see the film as I shot it, I will actually have to make clips out of every change in orientation, then change the orientation to landscape if it is not already, flip some 180 as they are upside down depending on the rotation from orientation to orientation. It really would have made things so much simpler if the iPhone mimicked the way traditional cameras work.

  • Is it possible to rotate a video clip in iphoto?  Thanks.

    I recorded a video clip with the camera on it's side and once uploaded to iphoto it found that it was still on it's side and the 'rotate' button at the bottom is not lit up.  Is it possible to rotate?  Thanks, I would appreciate your help!

    No.  You'll need to use Quicktime Player to rotate and export as a new file. It's explained my léonie in this topic: Movie clip rotation

  • Why does the frame of my rotated video not rotate also?

    I've checked these forums and followed the method to rotate a video that turned out to be rotated 90 degrees. When I rotated the video it rotated all right but the frame is still vertical portrait format and did not rotate also. What I wind up with is a tall vertical frame that has a properly rotated video that has both ends cropped off. Any other videos I now add to the timeline are also inside of this tall frame and also cropped off because the frame is tall and narrow, not rotated with the image.
    How do I go about doing this correctly? Is it possible to just rotate a video that has turned on its side and have the format or frame rotate also?
    TIA, Ken

    It never ceases to amaze me the odd hours that the loyal Adobe staff puts in. Look at the time stamp on Mark's post.
    To be more specific, just in case other people come along with the same question, create the sequence from your clip first. That will make it the right size and shape and frames per second to match up with your video.
    You can do this by dragging the clip to the "New Item" button or just right-click on the clip in the project panel and select "New Sequence From Clip".
    Once you have the perfect sequence just change it from this:
    To this:
    Then you can use the Motion effect on the clip to rotate it 90 degrees (or minus 90 degrees).
    Unfortunately, you can't, as far as I know, rotate the clips in the project panel. Only in the sequence. So one possible solution, and it depends on the clips and your workflow, is to put all of the clips on the timeline, rotate them all by rotating the first one and copying the attributes to all of the others at one time. You can then take that sequence into the Source monitor and use it just like a clip. That is one of the great things about nested clips. From there you can cut it up into smaller clips if you so desire. It doesn't seem to be possible to create actual subclips from a sequence, but you cam mark the in and out points and drag them to the project panel, then rename them if so desired.
    Some of my friends here on the forum seem to hate the concept of video shot in portrait mode on a phone or a video camera. However, there are times when it makes perfect sense to me. Especially when it is going to be displayed on a monitor that is oriented in portrait mode. Lots of advertising done that way. And who says that video on a web site has to be landscape? Why would you shoot the Eiffel Tower of the new Freedom Tower in landscape mode?
    If you are shooting video of a person standing and talking to put on the side of a web page, portrait makes more sense.
    Anyway, I hope this helps.

  • Rotate video in iMovie HD

    I just recently upgraded my old macbook and I use to use the older version of iMovie no problem, but now I am trying to learn the new ways in iMovie HD.  I am adding pictures to my timeline and I added a video but I can't figure out how to rotate it.  I tried downloading the turn clip but had no luck.  HELP PLEASE

    This is in iMovie 6?
    MPEG Streamclip can rotate video while maintaining the aspect ratio as well as the interlacing when converting to DV, which is what iMovie prefers as an input:
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
    There is also a plug-in for iMovie 6 from GeeThree called rotate/scale that might do the job:

  • Rotating video in ipad 2

    I forgot I had my ipad locked in landscape mode, and made a video.  When I emailed it, the video is upside down.  Is it possible to rotate the video that I already took, while the lock was on?

    You can transfer the video to your Mac or PC and use a third party movie/video editor tor rotate it to the correct orientation.

    No, but possibly Premiere Elements would be. I don't use that so can't say. You should ask in the PRE forum, which is where the video mavens hang out:

    Why cant I create a playlist for my music/song videos? Continuous play is also not possible in the video app on the phone!!!! previously, prior to IOS 6, it was possible to have both music videos & songs mixed in the same playlist in the music app

    I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming.  So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on.  But the ipad is a different story.  I have the music and artist but not one playlist  I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this. 
    Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
    I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z.  Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac.  Which I do talk highly of all the time.  But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
    I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not.   Any ideas?
    Thanks Al

  • Is there a way to rotate video on export through Media Encoder?

    My company produces a fair amount of content for vertical screens (i.e. 16x9 screen rotated 90º clockwise).  All the content is produced and delivered as 1920x1080p video (with the content rotated 90º counter-clockwise) so that we can work with standard broadcast equipment.
    It's a minor step in our workflow but when we send out web approvals, first we have to drop the edit sequences into another 1080x1920 sequence and export that.  It would be nice if Media Encoder had an input setting or effects option to rotate video so we can avoid that step.

    Doubtful (in fact very unlikely). You can check the app store for something - I beleive there are one or two that mirror a desktop to the iPad - but the only readily available "outside source" for an iOS device is steaming by way of a cloud or web source.

  • Is it possible to have video with a transparent background in dps?

    Is it possible to have video with a transparent background in dps?. Basically i've animated some elements in apple motion and want to incorporate them as an overlay (with the indesign page background showing through).

    You could do it with an image sequence but AFAIK there’s no support for alpha channels in video.

  • How do I add this effect to a rotated video [pic]

    I have a rotated video which now has black bars on either side which looks like so:
    How do I make it so the black bars on the sides are the right & left sides of the actual video appearing blurred?
    Like this:
    I don’t want to have to zoom to fit. Thanks!

    There are some advantages to using two different background images as shooternz pointed out.
    Some footage would benefit by not scaling it up and just reversing it on each side, just for one example.
    To do that you could put one clip on track one. Then flip it using the Horizontal Flip effect and blur it up. Take that and using the position parameters of the Motion effect, slide it over to the left so that it will just barely be slightly covered by the top clip in the middle.
    On track two, flip another copy, blur it, and scoot it off to the right.
    On track three, put on the original.
    Having said that, now I feel compelled to actually do it. I just shot a picture of some flowers with my cell phone for this purpose. Note that one side has more blooms than the other. So in the image below, you just catch a hint of the larger blooms next to the larger blooms and the smaller next to the smaller, and you should be able to tell, if you look closely that they are reversed.
    Now, of course, deciding if you want to do this depends entirely on the footage.

  • Rotating video files

    When photographing using a video camera I occasionally rotate the camera by 90 degrees, especially if the subject is higher than it is wide.  However, when importing the resulting video file into LR3 the images are rotated and must be edited with an external editor so they can be viewed correctly.  Does LR4 have the capability of editing video files in order to rotate the images by 90 degrees?
    As an example, I used my Canon S95 to record a video file of the Old Faithful geyser at Yellowstone last Spring, and rotated the camera in order to take advantage of the portrait versus landscape mode.  However, when importing into LR3 the images were on their sides.  I had to use an external editor to rotate the images so that Old Faithful was up-and-down instead of lying on its side.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Hi John
    to no: 2
    In iMovie as standard - NO
    1. Cxf - Turn Clip - think it is a free plug-in there
    2. QT-pro (in 90-deg steps) but about $20 extra
    3. FCE/P - expencive - but very interesting solution
    4. there's a 4th, free option to rotate video:
    goo' ol' Streamclip allows opening of dv-file,
    rotate & shrink (75%) ...
    illustrated how-to on my site...:

  • Rotating Video Playback within SWF

    At playback I am rotating a video (FLV) from a landscape to a
    portrait perspective (90 degree rotation) within a flash SWF. From
    a technical perspective, does flash just rotate the video on the
    fly, or does it go as far as to recreate and redraw the video in
    the new perspective?
    Are there any known issues with rotating video using
    flash?

    Here is a link to a great example...
