Layering video clips in one keynote slide

Question here for Keynote experts:
I'm trying to do something I'm not sure Keynote is capable of. At least, on the face of it it is, but in reality it doesn't seem to work. I have two video clips I'm trying to blend together seamlessly. The second begins with the same still image the first one ends with, so moving from one to the other shouldn't be noticeable. I tried putting them as slides that dissolved between the two, but KN insists on dipping to black between them. To combat this I did a little reading and seemed to learn that, like pictures, I could put the videos one atop the other, then adjust the build order to have them dissolve in the middle. KN will let me do this process, but when it comes to playback it only plays the video on top, then moves on to the next slide.
So, my question is, am I simply asking too much of KN, or is there another trick to this I could exploit?
Just in case anyone's wondering, the reason I'm doing this is because I'm building an award show presentation using video assets from After Effects and Premiere, the plan being to limit the Keynote-y element. Really I'd rather not use KN at all, but as these kind of events are subject to delays, over-runs etc, I have to ensure I have control over the timing, so delivering the assets through something like KN is the best option I'm aware of.
Thanks in advance for any and all help!

CLOSE. First of all THANK YOU. Here's where we're at right now--I'll narrow the focus as much as possible.
To assist, I"ve uploaded some images of my slides to my flickr site:
http://flickr.com/photos/ericnentrup/
It's the KEYNOTE Photoset on the left.
The layout has been done in Keynote (yes, I'm pushing boundaries). Hierarchically, there's a Product Line Page (Slide 1 on flickr.com) with a link to each of 6 products. On each of those Individual Product Pages (Slide 2), there are a list of features (8-14 depending), all linked to another static slide with a description of that feature. At the bottom of the Feature list is a link to a slide (Slide 3) that shows THAT PRODUCT in action--a 640x480 mp4 video I spit out of Final Cut Pro. In Keynote, there's a button at the bottom of the slide ('Click here to close") with "link enabled to last viewed slide" that returns it to "Slide 2". When in presentation mode, and with the video playing, it lets me click the button, interrupt the video wherever it was at, and return me to the previous slide.
But when I export to QT, I can NOT override the playing of the video, and am captive, having to wait for it to play out. This is a non-negotiable with the client and about to do me in.
Off to see them now for a bit...I'll be back later this afternoon...you can iChat me at [email protected]!
Thanks Kyn!

  • Replace audio in multiple video clips at one time

    Hello. I am new to the forum so I apologize if I break any of the rules!
    I have a collection of tutorial videos, all edited but the audio had some balance issues. The files were not in Premiere Pro at the time. They are the final edited videos but then I was told the audio needed to be adjusted. 
    I have re-balanced the audio, saved the audio as wav files and now I need to replace the old audio (in the finished video file) with the new audio (the wav files I edited and saved). The timing is all the same. It's just a matter of replacing the current file.
    Is this doable as a batch process? Is it doable in Premiere Pro or do I need to use Audition or some other Adobe software?
    I hope this makes sense.
    Thank you in advance!

  • How to combine video clips into one video clip using FCPX

    I typed this into the search engine but could not come up with anything. How do you combine Video clips into one Video clip using FCPX? Thanks in advance.
    Gar

    The simple answer is to put the clips together in a project in the desired order and export (oops, the new word is share [YUK!]) a master file.
    But maybe you should say a little more about the clips to determine whether the answer I've given is relevant to yor situation.

  • Assembling still photos and video clips into one video presentation.

    This is partly a Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements (both version 7) question, so hopefully not posting to the wrong group (there doesn't seem to be a Premiere Elements forum anyway)!
    I am currently putting together a video/slideshow presentation, initially for display directly from a computer (to data projector) and then ultimately to end up on a DVD.  The presentation  consists of digital and scanned photographs (prints and transparencies) and video clips.  I successfully put together a slideshow of all the stills with Photoshop Elements, inlcuding music etc.  I then output the slideshow to Premiere Elements, so that I could merge it with my already edited video clips.
    The output process works smoothly enough, but as soon as I run the completed presentation, the quality of the imported slideshow is nothing short of woeful!  Each image is badly pixellated and all the transition effects are mangled - in short, it is unwatchable.  As it turns out, simply adding a single, still image to Premiere Elements results in a very poor final image.  Drop the exact same video clips and still images into Windows Movie Maker and the quality is spot on (as is playing the slideshow after outputting it as a WMV file and playing via any player capable of playing WMVs).
    Trying to go the other way, ie importing video clips into Photoshop Elements, pretty much always results in it crashing!
    The two products are marketed to "work together", but they are an abject failure in this regard!
    OS is 64 bit Vista Ultimate.
    I've tried searching the manuals and online help, but could find nothing of any help.  I've sent an e-mail to Adobe support, but have received no response from them (after three weeks).
    I'm hoping that someone may be able to point out something that I may have missed, or offer some tips and tricks.
    Thanks.

    There is a separate forum for Premiere Elements at
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premiere_elements
    Also, my favorite place for Premiere Elements questions (including slideshows) is a site started by some Adobe Premiere Elements forum regulars at http://muvipix.com/phpBB3/index.php   Forum signup is free. There are multiple subforums at that site and because most of your questions are Premiere elements, I suggest that you post under the "PE version 7" subforum.
    Wherever you decide to post, I suggest that you include in your post my comments and the answers to the questions that I asked here.
    1 -- It has FAQs over to the right of the thread listing on the Adobe Premiere Elements forum. One of those FAQs that is relevant to your current workflow is
    What resolution should my photos be in Premiere Elements?
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/431851?tstart=0
    2 -- Also, I suspect that you used Pan and/or Zoom on some of your photos when creating the Slide Show withinn Photoshop Elements.
    For those photos, you want the Premiere Elements setting of Scale to Framesize set OFF.
    3- There are also other considerations such as
    -- which Project Setting you are using in Premiere Elements?
    -- what dimensions are you using when you export from Premiere Elements to the WMV file?
    -- what is the resolution for the projector on which this video will initially be displayed?
    4 -- I do agree with your approach of adding the video in Premiere Elements.
    5 -- The mangled transitions needs more detailed info in order to discuss.
    Tthe timing of transitions is definitely different between the Photoshop Elements slideshow editor playback and the Premiere Elements output: this gives some people serious problems and for others it is not significant.  I don't know yet if that is your problem.

  • How do I move a video clip from one event folder to another?

    Today I imported a bunch of old VHS based analog videos. I imported them all into one event library folder.
    Now I want to move some of the clips into a new event folder so I can keep all the folders properly organized with what is in them.
    When I highlight the selected video clip (I put the yellow border around the video I want to move) and I drop and drag the clip into the new folder imovie 11 asks if I want to move the selected clip. I answer yes, it seems to move the clip BUT it moves the WHOLE CLIP NOT just the part I selected.
    I can't seem to make a cut in the video and separate it out.
    How do I get the video I selected into the new event folder?

    The short answer is that you can't.  Purchases are tied to the AppleID used to buy them.  AppleID's cannot be merged, and the content cannot be transferred.

  • I want to copy video, cutaways and audio combined and use in another project. So far I can only copy the video clip or one of the other elements at a time. How do I group all of them?

    I want to group my  video clip with its audio and cutaway clips so that I can copy the segment and move it to another project. So far I can only move one element at a time. How can I group all the elements?

    You can select multiple objects in the timeline in the usual Mac way - hold down the shift key while you click on the objects then copy, select other project, position playhead where you want to insert then paste.

  • HT4640 Adding a video clip to a keynote presentation - do I have to keep the original video on the camera roll?

    I have several keynote presentations that are missing their video clips.  Does the original video clip need to stay on the camera roll after you embed it in the presentation?  I thought not, because when you add a video, a message comes up saying "compressing video" before it gets added.  That made me think that a special compressed version of the original video is made and saved along with the presentation.  I've tried testing this by creating a new presentation, adding a video clip to it and then deleting the original video from the camera roll and the video clip in the presentation was not affected.  You'd think if the clip were linked to a presentation, that iOS would warn you before you delete it from the camera roll.  But I can't think of any other reason why the clips would suddenly be missing from all my keynote presentations.

    You can do this with iMovie '06, but not with iMovie '08. You should have iMovie '06 still on your hard disk if you upgraded from iLife '06, or you can download it for free from Apple. Under Editing -> Video Effects, you will find the Fast/Slow/Reverse effect that will do this.

    *You also can do this with QuickTime-pro.* But You need the disipline of an angle.
    Quoting:
    Klaus1 writes: As Bengt says, you can do this with Quicktime Pro. Here is how:
    Organize the video clips and/or stills that you want to superimpose on to your main video clip, by having these in separate, individual iMovie projects (no matter how small). It helps if these are in the exact length/time you want later.
    Now start with the clip in your iMovie project on to which you want to superimpose one of more smaller video clips or stills. Lets call it Main Clip. Export this (share) to Quicktime Pro in DV (full quality). make sure it has the same aspect as before (Quicktime tends to default to 4:3. If you want 16:9, read on).
    In Quicktime, with this project open, select File ~ Open File. Select the iMovie file (in your movies folder) of the first clip/still you want superimposed. This will open in its own QT window. Select Edit ~ copy. If it is a movie clip then select all ~ copy (or you will only get one frame!). Switch back to the Main Clip window, and click in the scroll bar where you want the extra clip/still to appear. Choose Edit ~ Add to Movie.
    You can repeat this as many times as you like, if you want to build a 'Video Wall', i.e. have several superimposed clips/stills on the same Main Clip.
    Do not worry that the new clip overlaps or covers up the Main Clip, at this stage.
    Choose Window ~ Show Movie Properties. The Properties Dialogue appears.
    You will see a list of video (and audio) tracks. Track one will be the Main Clip, track 2 your new added (superimposed) clip. Click track 2, then click visual settings. From the Scaled Size pop-op menu, choose percent. Then type 50 into the first box. If Preserve Aspect Ratio is turned on you won't need to type 50 into the second box. You have made the pasted footage appear at one quarter its original size. The inset is now hugging the top-left corner of the Main Clip. If you want, you can type numbers into the Offset Boxes to shove it away from that corner (there are 72 pixels to the inch).
    If your original Main Clip was required in 16:9, unclick (de-select) Preserve Aspect Ratio, and type in the relevant numbers in the two boxes, in Video Track 1.
    PAL (for Europe):
    Standard DV (4:3) 788 x 576
    DV Widescreen (16:9) 1050 x 576
    NTSC (for the USA):
    Standard DV (4:3) 720 x 528
    DV Widescreen (16:9) 874 x 480
    This will not affect video track 2, but if that is also wanted in 16:9 repeat for that track.
    You can superimpose, 3, 4, or more such 'overlaps' on the same clip, and spend a happy afternoon tapping away for each track in the Offset Boxes until you have got them all in the right place! You can even overlap them, if you can remember (or note down - hire a secretary to take notes) which track you want on top etc.
    Save the completed QT file. Import the completed file into a new iMovie project. Import this into the original iMovie project, substituting the old clip you copied to QT as Main Clip for the new fancy clip you have made.
    Have fun!
    END OF QUOTE !
    *My way:* When I started to need more than iMovie could offer I took a look into
    FinalCut Express and counting the sum of all Plug-ins needed and FCE I found out
    that FCE is a real bargin.
    • color-correction
    • blue/green screen
    • 99 video and audio tracks
    • slightly rotation a clip eg 1 deg - nice horizon
    • slightly or major scale up or down
    • and of cause Picture in pictures
    And so much more.

  • Can Compressor burn a batch of several video clips to one DVD?

    I'm trying to compile a batch of video clips to burn to a single AVCHD DVD-R.  It looks like I can Create Blu-ray Disc job action for each job or video, but I want to burn one disk to contain all the video clips in the batch.  Is this possible with Compressor 3.5?
    I've found that it's possible to do this with Final Cut Pro, after transcoding all the video and putting it in one timeline, then File>Share.  But I was hoping to eliminate the step of transcoding the video to save time and memory, and speed up the process. 
    Thanks for any help.

    Ben, thanks for the info.  I assume I should ingest the videos as ProResLT with a Compressor droplet, rather than Log and Transfer w/ FCP.  Looks like that doubles the size of the video -- not too bad.  I just want to streamline the workflow as much as possible.  I don't want to shell out $100 for Toast right now.

  • One Keynote slide + one 7.4 MB mp3 exported to QuickTime = 110.2 MB MOV ???

    OK... Title says most. Combining a single Keynote slide with a 7.4 MB MP3 and exporting to QuickTime is giving me a HUGE file of 110.2 MB.
    Same slide, same MP3, exported to Flash yields an 8.2 MB SWF.
    What's up with that??
    I just want one slide to open up in full-screen, and click to play one song with the slide... and a file small enough to email.
    Any suggestions?

    Ok, the magic key seems to be a Custom frame rate of 0.01. With a frame rate that low, I'm getting file sizes of just larger than the music file. Set Keyframe and Data Rate to Automatic.
    The reason why this doesn't happen with Flash is because flash does things the way iPhoto does. Display one static image and leave it there until it needs to change. Keynote COULD do that with QuickTime, but it doesn't
    Also, if that H.264 gamma change is causing you problems, I just found you can use PNG. Make the same change to the frame rate (you don't have to alter anything else for PNG) and you get a file just a skosh bigger, but closer to your original colors.

  • Problem Synchronizing Multiple Video Clips to One Audio Clip

    So i recently shot some video for a cool project I have coming up however I am having issues with Synchronizing the Audio and Videot together in Final Cut Pro X. I have used Final Cut Pro X since Day 1 that it came out and I thought I had a pretty good grasp on how Synchronizing Clips and MultiCam worked. I record my audio separately so in the past I would start recording on the TasCam Recorder (Wireless lav set up) I have, start recording on the DSLR and end up with both a video and audio clip. I would take these into Final Cut Pro and highlight both and use the "Synchronize Clips" command to pair them both into a single clip and then turn off the natural audio from the DSLR and begin my cuts. I thought I had done this with multiple clips before without issue but I seem to have a problem now.
    Yesterday I shot 50 interviews. I pressed record on the Audio Recorder in the beggining and let it run for the full 2 hours, giving me one long audio file. Instead of wasting video space on my CF Card, I started and stopped recording for each of the 50 interviewees. My goal and what I thought would work was to highlight all 50 video clips and the 1 audio clip and say Synchronize Clips. This did not work. Upon looking at the Synchronize Clips in depth, i noticed that it synched all of my video stacked in the beggining in the first couple minutes. It didn't sync all of my clips, it merely just put them in the same timeline all up front.
    I then tried to highlight all and do the same thing with MultiCam, however thought it matched a few more clips, it still had an issue of not synching the way I was hoping for.
    I was wondering if anyone has had this issue in the past and what they might have done to fix it. Does FCPX have a limit on the number of clips it can Synchronize? Does anyone have any ideas for workflow for synchronizing all of these clips? In the future upcoming shoots should i resort back to starting and stopping audio recording the same way I start and stop video recording and then pairing individual interviews later?

    So i just read this in the support for FCPX
    Final Cut Pro analyzes the clips for sync points such as markers you’ve added, timecode, file creation date, and audio content. If no sync points can be found, the clips are synced at their respective starting points.
    This is what I am aiming for , however not what I am getting. The piece about how the clips sync via timecode, markers, and creation date/time intrigue me though. There is no timecode cause my external audio is just a wav file, but maybe I can get it to sync better via markers? Has anyone else had this issue? Maybe my audio file being close to 2 hours is too long?

    I'm very new to this but I'm trying to get these two video clips I have, and set them side by side on one screen so both clips are showing at once. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

    put the 2 clips one above the other on the timeline

    select upper clip in the timeline and note the wireframe outline that then appears in the Canvas
    click and drag a corner of that wireframe to resize (scale) the image as you would like
    click and drag within the wireframe to re-center as needed.
    select the lower clip in the timeline and then repeat the resize and re-center process
    as Mr Certified so eloquently pointed out, these scale and center parameters can also be found and manipulated (somewhat less intuitively) in the Motion tab if you load up each clip into the Viewer

  • Sync multiple video clips with one audio track

    I'm an FCPX noob, trying to sync some clips.  I recorded a 1.5 hour concert with a DSLR along with an audio track using a separate digital recorder.  I have seven video clips, all in sequence (stopping and restarting the camera because of clip length limitations) and one long audio track in WAV format.  The audio track is longer than the combined video clips, and there are some short dead spaces in between the video clips when I turned off/on.  Now I'm trying to sync them but when I do, the video clips get stacked together with lots of overlap.
    I made a test with 3 minute video and audio clips and had no problem.  But when I try to do the whole event, I get a jumbled mess.
    I could cut the audio into pieces and sync each piece with its corresponding video, but that seems to defeat the sync process, as well as being a lot of work.  And, wouldn't I end up with lots of overlap anyway, since my audio clips would have to be longer than my video clips?
    Am I missing an easier way to do this, or a way to arrange things better?  I can't imagine the problems with several cameras and several audio tracks; my project is actually pretty simple, since it is very linear.
    Any suggestions?  Thanks--

    Yes. Select all the clips you want in the browser, and then in the inspector fill in the camera angle with the value you want. This can be just about anything, it does not have to be a number. I prefer to name  it something meaningful, like "wide" or something.
