Looking for a simple drag & drop apps to slow motion a Video?

I'm doing a project with school kids that involves numerous iterations on building small structures out of balsa wood and taking them to breaking point to discover where the weakness lies in the design.
I'm a FCPx and imovie user, but would really like to find an application where I can just take a video clip and run the app to take the video clip and slow it down.
I'll have to do this maybe hundreds of times and do it almost real time while showing the kids.
I'm looking for someting quick and easy to use..
Does anyone know of such an app.. 'easy slowmotion' or someting like that.
Thanks fo any help!

I would say, iMovie or FCPX are simple slowmo generators…
I'm doing a lot of sports-video - so, slowmo is of highest interest here.
Best practice and still unmatched: find a cam, which records in HFR/high frame rates; there are some cheap (99$) Canon compact cameras (still with ability to record video), which offer 120fps up to 1000fps … but in a small resolutions.
There's no need to 'process' such recordings, just playback with normal speed 25/30fps = slowmo.
ALL other methods to create slowmo out of 25/30fps recordings involve processing!
… where should the additionally needed frames come from?
Features like OpticalFlow (FCPX, Twixtor) need tons of computation = no 'instant' effect.
So, when you have no access to a designated 'slowmo cam', the fastest, only and most simple method is, to playback frame by frame: open your video with QuicktimePlayer.app, and step/hit cursor-right repeatedly.

  • Looking for a simple, standalone desktop app for web stats

    Well, I see they've changed the forums here again. SIGH.
    Anyway, a certain web host has eliminated AWStats from it's shared hosting. So I used Webmaster Tools. And now they've changed, and no longer display the simple visitors and hits. Google Analytics is way too complex for what I need, as are many of the stats programs I've looked into.
    I can download the daily Apache log files, that's no problem. Just looking for a small standalone program to import these and show the data like AWStats.  Any suggestions? The only other options would be to go to a different web host. Not a big deal overall, but I would rather not deal with the hassle, especially the migrating the database.

    Not sure of standalone 'desktop' apps. But check out http://www.openwebanalytics.com/ and Web Analytics in Real Time | Clicky  - they're both very intuitive and easy to use with a lot more simplified stats than Google Analytics.

  • I'm looking for a simple DJ app

    Hi Folks,
    I hope this is the best place for this question!  I'm looking for a simple App that will allow me to add music on the fly to a playing playlist. iTunes DJ does most of what I want but doesn't allow me to drag and drop order or remove songs.  I don't need turntables or eq or anything like that.  Just a simple way to create playlists on the fly with the ability ro rearange the order, add and remove songs on the fly. Also, if there's a better forum for my question, please advise.
    Thanks!

  • Looking for a simple drawing application for my grand-daughters

    Well, that's more or less it, I'm looking for a simple drawing application for my grand-daughters. In the children section of iTunes store, there's only a few books and nothing more. I bought the iPad mainly for my grand-children to teach them a bit and I don't find interesting things for them.
    Can anybody help me with that?

    Brushes is a nice finger drawing app. Since you didn't say how old they are, I don't know if the interface is to difficult for them to use.
    Sketchbook is another nice drawing app.
    Neither are free.

    Hi Mark,
    No need to restrict your choice to the preset Pages Templates. Do a web search and choose a Word template. Pages will open Word documents and templates. Or design your own:
    This is a Table I inserted into a blank Pages Word Processing document. Format the date column in Inspector > Table > Format > Cell Format. Select the first Date cell,then drag the fill handle down to increment the dates.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • I'm looking for a simple Notebook template for Pages.  Any help?

    I'm looking for a simple "notebook" looking journal that can be used in Pages.  This can also be a journal that has dates; actually, that is preferable, but just a notebook is a minimally satisfactory template.

    "pdf creator" for iPad works flawlessly for me working with pdf files
    It takes care of all my needs

    Possibly it could handle your needs as well
    Just type it into the App Store search field and the first one that comes up is the one I use
    Jump on over there and read up on it before buying and see if it will help you 
    Hope this helps

  • Looking for a good method or APP to have client sign a form in a text box

    I am looking for a good method or App to take an existing form/Document and have a client sign, date etc.  I will want to create the text boxes in a stationary location.  Possibly to also take a picture to add to form.
    Has anyone used any apps to accomplish this?
    Apps I have tried.
    Signnow
    Sign PDF
    Sign Easy
    Sign Easy is about the best except the signatures (text boxes, dates, etc) are free floating and confuse people where to add them on form each time.  Clients have no clue how to use it.
    Any suggestions would be helpful.  I may be over complicating this also, as there could just be a PDF app that I utilize.
    Thanks,
    Jim

  • Looking for a good note taking app: Are there new features for the Notes app in iOS6?

    Hi,
    I've read that the Notes app with Mountain Lion will be available for OS X as well, and I was wondering if there will be any significant updates to the Notes app coming in iOS 6?
    The Notes app in Mountain Lion supports, as far as I know, text formatting, images and attachments. The Notes app in iOS 5 does not have any of these features, yet still it is claimed that the OS X client will sync with the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. This means that there must be some rather significant updates coming for the Notes app in iOS 6 to match up with the features of its Mac counterpart. Still, no updates to the Notes app are listed in any of the iOS 6 feature lists I've seen so far.
    I'm looking for a good note taking app for OS X and iOS. I don't like how Springpad works, neither did Evernote work out for me, it's just too complex - I like Simplenote a lot though, it's just that its approach is too radical in my opinion. I was thinking that the Mountain Lion Notes app might be a good alternative because it combines simplicity with rich text formatting and attachments. I kind of hate the skeuomorphic user interface though.
    best, Ian

    You are only addressing other iPad users here & no Apple employees. We have no way of knowing, so you'll have to wait until iOS 6 is released.

  • Looking for a good music player app

    Hi.
    I have a problem. i'm looking for a good music player app for my new iphone (which i will buy my next month) in terms of playing music. after having 3 phones in the last 9 months i'm still unhappy.
    Had a Samsung Galaxy Ace. sound was above average but due to underpowered processor + RAM (and Samsung stating they won't update the software anymore) i had to sell it.
    Than had a Sony Ericcson Xperia Neo but felt the sound was "flat" and bland" and left me disappointed and uninspired coming from a well-known phone maker know for its audio & visual expertise.
    Now, i currently have the HTC Desire S. umm although the sound was "Ok" with its usual pre-set equalizers (common among Android phones) and SRS sound enhancement it felt me wanting more and although i have the phone for a week now i would say "so far-so good."
    but i heard the best music phones out there are those with either Beats Audio (which are very brand new) or the ones with Dolby Mobile.
    had an iPod touch (4th-gen) and i was amazed and impressed by the sound quality.
    so, if i can get away with a good music player app that recreates surround sound, has good preset EQ's along with customisable ones and one with Dolby-like support which app would you recommend?
    Thank you.

    Stock lock screen does not normally support 3rd party widgets so you wont find any third party players that allows you access while on lock screen..  As for the player I perfer Meridian Media Player Revolute from https://market.android.com/details?id=org.iii.romulus.meridian&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm9yZy5paWkucm9tdWx1cy5tZXJpZGlhbiJd
