Is there a way to create still jpegs from video clips in iMovie?

I shot some video on Christmas day and imported them to iMovie 9.
I want to creat some jpegs from the video clips and print them as photos.
Is there a way to create a jpeg from a video clip and save the file?
Thanks for the info!
Len

Here is a method for extracting a still from iMovie 09.
Are you working in iMovie and realize that certain frames in the movie would be perfect as photographs? Here is how to extract them...
*To get a still frame from an Event*, right-click on the frame and select "Add Still Frame to Project". The still will be added to the end of the current project. Right click on the still frame in the project and select "Reveal in Finder". You will see a jpeg file that is highlighted. Drag this jpeg file in the finder to the iPhoto icon on your dock.
*If you want a still from a project*, rather than an event, the process is similar, except you right-click on the frame and select "Add Freeze Frame", and it adds the freeze frame at the end of the clip rather than at the end of the project. Right-click/reveal in Finder, drag JPEG to iPhoto icon in dock.
*If you are not using iPhoto*, and just want to save to your desktop, click Reveal in Finder as above, then COPY, then PASTE to desktop.
Hint: If you do not want to clutter up your iMovie Project with stills at the end that you would have to go back and delete, then create a separate iMovie Project just for your stills, and follow the instructions for capturing stills from an Event.
Note: If you do not have a right mouse button, then control-click will work instead of right-click.

    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?

    Is there a way to create a reminder from a date that appears in an email that was sent to me? I know that when a date is entered into an email I can create an event on my calendar for it, but is there a way I can have it be a reminder instead?

    System: PC Windows 7 using Acrobat X Prof. - Thank you!

    Hi ,
    There is an option of embedding index for faster search while converting email to a PDF .
    However I am not sure that will serve your purpose or not .
    I would recommend you to get in touch with Microsoft support as well .
    Meanwhile I'll work on it and get back to you in case I get a desired solution .

  • I've lost my photos (crashed hdd, iPhoto library on Time Machine corrupt too).  Is there a way to create a picture from the thumbnail that remains in iPhoto?  The quality is obviously poor, but better than nothing.

    I've lost my photos (crashed hdd, iPhoto library on Time Machine corrupt too).  Is there a way to create a picture from the thumbnail that remains in iPhoto?  The quality is obviously poor, but better than nothing.

    Time machine should have a good copy - how are you determining that it is corrupt
    If you want the thumbnails as photos right click on the iPhoto library and make a copy of the data folder and then import it into a new iPhoto library - it contains your thumbnails

  • How do i create a still frame from a clip in iMovie 11? thanks

    Good morning. How do I create a still frame from a clip in iMovie 11.  Thanks

    First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (google MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5)
    Open MPEG Streamclip.
    In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
    Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
    In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
    In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
    Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
    You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.
    Here is a video I made that steps through this...

  • Create still images from video files?

    from http://gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/16/5-new-photoshop-tips-for-photographers/ , "You can now preview video in Bridge and create still images from video files."
    I just installed the 5.4 Camera Raw Update.
    I can preview the AVI files from my Nikon D5000, but have not figured out how I might create a still image ( other than stopping the movie, and dragging to copy ) Have tried searching adobe, this forum, have not found more info ion this.

    Stop the video at the desired point, press the Shift, Command, and 4 keys, drag the cursor so that the whole picture is highlighted, let go of the button, and open the PNG on the desktop.

  • Is there a way to create a file other than mp4 with iMovie under Maverick

    Since the installation of the last version of iMoviei I noticed that the creation of a sharing file is only in mp4 type. Is there a way to create, for ex a mov file??
    Thanks for reply
    Daniel Goyens

    It doesn't seem like it.
    If you share to iTunes you get an .m4v. Maybe you can open this in Quicktime and convert to .mov.

  • Is there a way to create a still image from video in either imovie or iphoto?  I want to add an arrow to an imovie and so far have not had any luck but I'm thinking I might be able to add an arrow to a photo and then incorporate it into the movie.

    I'm still trying to point out a location in an imovie with an arrow.  I thought I might be able to insert an arrow in a still photo from the imovie and then reinsert the photo in the movie but my attempts at capturing a still frame from a video in imovie or iphoto haven't worked so far.  Any ideas any one???

    First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. You can find it by googling MPEG Streamclip Squared 5.
    Open MPEG Streamclip.
    In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
    Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
    In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
    In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
    Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
    Also, for how to add a pointer, try Karsten Schluter's website for a good post on how to do this.

  • Creating stills (jpeg) from DV video

    Hi there,
    I have just finished creating my iMovie but now I would like to capture a still image (ie jpeg) from it. I intend to use this image in iWeb (seperate to the finished video) and also in other applications.
    I understand that I can capture a still frame and export it as a Quicktime file but is there any way to convert it into a jpeg (or similar) so I can use it as a picture?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    How about a screen capture?
    Command-Shift-4 will turn your cursor into "cross-hairs". Drag it across your image and a copy (.png format) will be made on your Desktop. Use Preview to convert the .png to .jpg format.

  • Is there a way to create and edit a video in portrait mode / 9:16 in Premiere Elements 12 or 13. Playback on an iPhone in portrait position.

    I'm editing iPhone app video for posting as the first screen in the Apple app store. Required size for the video is 750:1334, 9:16. I there a way to setup the initial video in portrait mode? Many posts for how to rotate a specific clip, but I need the whole video in portrait position. How to accomplish this? I'm using Windows 7 and Premiere Elements 12 and now 13.

    LaurieFrick
    Thanks for giving this portrait Edit area monitor shape a look.
    I have Windows 7 64 bit and Windows 8.1 64 bit and have done the work using Premiere Elements 12/12.1 on Windows 7 64 bit.
    Here is a step by step
    Find the DSLR [email protected] file
    Local Disk C\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 12\Settings\SequencePresets\NTSC\DSLR\1080p\
    And, in that 1080p Folder is the DSLR 1080p30@ 29.97.sqpreset file that you seek.
    1. Copy the
    DSLR 1080p30@ 29.9.sqpreset fileI
    and paste it to the computer desktop in a newly created folder named 1920p.
    2. Open the 1920p Folder and edit the ..sqpreset file in Notepad.
    To do that right click the .sqpreset, and, from the pop up, select Open With and then Notepad.
    3. In the Notepad document, you are going to edit in only 2 places for now, switching 1920 and 1080 to 1080 and 1920 at the top and bottom
    sections of the Notepad document.
    Then go specifically File Menu/Save of the Notepad document and hit Save.
    4. At this point, you have the edited.sqpreset file in the 1920p Folder on the computer desktop.
    (Change the name of the edited .sqpreset file so that it = DSLR [email protected])
    Move the 1920p Folder from there to add it to the 1080p Folder, the location where you found the original .sqpreset file that you edited.
    Close out of there.
    5. Back in the Premiere Elements 12/12.1, manually set the project preset to the new project preset
    6. When you import your 1080 x 1920 9:16 video file into the project and drag it into the Timeline, you should see
    Note that there is no orange line over that Timeline content, indicating that you are seeing
    the best possible preview of the image.
    7. As I wrote before,
    But, here is the hang up. If I render the Timeline content to get the best possible preview at the Edit level, the video in the Edit area monitor
    squeezes in resulting in black borders to the left and right of the video image on screen.
    But, otherwise I found I had no problems editing or exporting, just had to keep away from Timeline rendering for previewing after an edit. Need to find the missing ingredient for 100%.
