  • Want to lock video to audio, NOT audio to video--I'm making a music video

    Hi
    I'm making a music video--one long audio clip which I'm cutting video to.
    I've got Pogue's book and it explains how to pushpin audio to video, but the reverse doesn't seem to work.
    I've got one long audio clip and I want to lock video segments to it to preserve the synch between video clips and the audio track.
    Help doing this would be greatly appreciated. Also, is there a good breakdown somewhere of how to make a music video in iMovie?
    THANKS!

    Steve told us at the keynote, iM08 was done by an engineer who's a Scuba-diver ... so, audio+iM08? forget it ... the audio skills are in vers.0.1. almost zil.
    plus: in iMHD≤6, you are allowed in timeline to drag clips 'to the right' to create 'holes' in the video timeline.. (=black clips) .. iM08 doesn't support that. and: in iMHD≤6 you can 'crop' a clip from the clippane easiely BEFORE adding it to the project's timeline.. frame-precision selection is 'tricky' with iM08 .. (see my site, iM08Tricks)
    .. iM08 is extremely fast to 'glue' some clips together; for serious video-editing it keeps some most interesting concepts (skimming), I would like to see in any forth-coming vers. of FCE .. but: 'videos' with iM08? .. not for me ...

  • Compose Audio Tracks for Full/Minus Vocal Music Video DVD

    Hi everyone.
    I've recorded, mixed my song in Sonar, mastered the stereo audio file in Wavelab, edit video in Premiere CS4 for a dvd music video project. Anyone can help me how to compose the audio tracks so that finally listener can choose for full song or minus the main vocal with their remote controller.
    Heard people telling about vocal on the right channel and music on left channel which will make the original stereo music mono. i'm trying to avoid this. any other way of doing that?...2 tracks together in a song, 1 full 1 without vocal? How do you do this?
    Thanks, all the best everyone.

    Mal,
    One can do this very easily in Encore. While it's more an Encore question, let me try to tackle it here.
    DVD-Video and BD, allow for multiple Audio Streams. These are user selectable from either a Menu, or the Audio button on the remote.
    What I would do would be to Export your Sequence in elemental/elementary streams, i.e. one Video-only and then, in your case, two Audio-only files. One will be the full-mix with vocals, and the other with just the instrumental. These files can be either Exported from PrPro, or from your audio-editing program. There is one warning, that I will give you later on.
    Now, you have three files: Video-only (silent), and two versions of your Audio. Import the Video-only into Encore, as a Timeline. Import the two Audio-only files as Assets.
    In the Project Panel in Encore, drag one of your Audio-only files to that Timeline, where it will be Audio Track 1. Drag the other to that same Timeline, where it will be Audio Track 2. Audio Track 1 will be the main Audio, so you get to choose which one you deem more important, or which you want to be the default. The other, Audio Track 2, will be the supplemental Audio.
    I would use a Menu, that had Buttons for the User to choose which Audio version they wanted. One Button would be specifically linked to the Timeline with Audio Track 1 chosen, and the second to that same Timeline, but with Audio Track 2 specifically chosen (drop-down in Properties Panel for those Buttons, will let you choose this). Most remotes will allow the user to choose on the fly, with the Audio button, but I would still do this Menu. I do similar, when I have DD 5.1 SS on Audio Track 1, and the DTS encoded version on Audio Track 2.
    Then, just set up your other Menus, as is required.
    For more Encore-specific questions, here is the Encore Forum. Some of the same folk there, as here, but there are some different folk, who only post/read there. One, Neil Wilkes is a major music DVD/BD producer, and knows his way around music mixing and authoring.
    Now, that one warning mentioned above. Both DVD-Video and BD are centered around Video. If you are Exporting from PrPro, make 100% certain that your Audio is EXACTLY the same Duration as your Video, or slightly shorter. I usually leave about 1-2 sec. of silent Audio. Even 1 Audio Unit more in the Audio file can be an issue. Exact, or slightly shorter for the Audio. This holds for Exporting from your Audio-editing program too. Just check that Duration very carefully.
    Also, if you are doing DD 5.1 SS, you might want to make sure that you have 02 sec. of silence, before the first note in your Audio, to give a DVD player time to lock onto the signal. This is more likely to be needed with higher-end DVD players. I always begin my Video with 02 sec. of Black Video and end it with 02 sec. of Black Video. My Audio does not begin until the end of the first, and ends before the end of the latter.
    Good luck, and hope that this helps,

  • Making a music video

    hello everyone,
    i am wondering why some of the lyrics doesnt show when i
    press ctrl+enter. there are 19 lines missing in the music video i
    made. but when u check on the flash document itself, all the lyrics
    are there. can someone help me out here?
    tnx!

    Hello Empress,
    Sent you this answer via email, but thought people on the
    forum might be interested in it as well. Also, tell me if it didn't
    fix the problem!
    The problem you were encountering was due to the special font
    you were using. Flash, by default uses device fonts only when it
    generates its .swf files. So what you need to do is to force your
    font to be embeded into your swf file. I was able to do this,
    however since I'm running Flash CS3 it upgraded your fla file and
    you wouldn't be able to open it anymore in Flash 8.
    So I'll give you the steps to embed it to your project file
    (it may be slightly different in Flash 8) and hopfully you'll have
    the same results.
    Click Window > Library
    under the library window there should be an additional
    options button (usually top right, close to the _ and X buttons)
    Open the additional options dropdown menu.
    Choose 'New Font...'
    This should give you a font symbol properties window.
    Name the font whatever you like, (this will be the label for
    your font in the library window)
    Choose the font 'Segoe Print' from the list of your local
    machines fonts.
    There are three checkboxes to be aware of bold italic etc..
    If you are going to use bold or italic at any point, you will need
    to do this process over for both of them(for normal bold and
    italic, you will have to have 3 embeded fonts of Segoe Print type).
    For now just leave them unchecked
    Hit 'ok'
    Now look at your library window, you should see your font
    listed there.
    Right click on this font, and choose the Linkage option. On
    the linkage popup window click Export for ActionScript and give it
    a class name (I beleive you only need to do this step if you intend
    to use actionscript to manipulate text with this font, if you don't
    intend to use actionscript, its not really needed)
    Hit ok and publish your movie.
    I attached the swf file that I compiled with the embeded font
    just to make sure my results were what you were looking for.
    Best of luck with your project.

  • DVD music videos to ITunes

    I bought a music video (DVD) at the store, not the music store. Can I download it to my IPOD Video? It doesn't give me that option when I put in the DVD.
    Thanks!

    You can... I found a piece of software that will rip a DVD to something iTunes will read. (http://www.magicdvdripper.com/)

  • A little help planning a music video

    I could use some advice...
    For a while now, every time I meet a musician I casually hand him/her my card and say something along the lines of "if you ever want to try your hand at making a music video to help get your music out there, I am looking to shoot my first music video. I am not a sound guy, but if you have one we could work on this together, or we could shoot to his recording".
    Well, today the answer was "I am there. I am ready."
    OK. Now I have to put my skills where my mouth is. I have some time. The guy is a pianist who is the new manager of a very high class piano store that is about to be completely remodeled. I had already asked him if I could come in and shoot the pianos. You know, lid open, hammers striking the wires with a little motion blur. That kind of thing. Artsy stuff. The lighting is horrible but the remodeling is supposed to change all that. Worse comes to worse, I bring him a pizza and shoot at night, after hours, and I light it all myself.
    But a music video, that is going to be a challenge. That is probably an all day affair, and I will possibly have to deal with outside light leaking in. Meaning I need to cover the windows as best I can. At least the ones behind him.
    I am looking for advice on lighting something as shiny as a beautiful black grand piano. The reflections probably mean that all lighting has to be quite muted and behind me. Or is it 90 degrees to my right or left. What eliminates the reflections the best. Or should it come from everywhere?
    I am thinking huge softboxes (queen size sheets stretched across a PVC frame with shop lights behind them and lots of reflectors). Or would I be better off emulating the spotlights one sees at concert halls?
    Have any of you ever shot a pianist at work? Any advice, warnings, suggestions? Any must have shots? Any to avoid?
    If you come across any videos of a concert pianist on YouTube or anywhere else that look extremely good to you, let me know please.
    I don't really want to make this a single camera shoot because it will take so much longer and he could get bored playing the same piece over and over again. I could rent more cameras from BorrowLenses.com but I am going to try to find a photography group and see if anyone has the same camera I do, and who might be interested in participating. I would like to avoid having to match up video from multiple brands and data rates. Although it might not be that hard.
    I will probably do my photo shoot first in order to really check out the lighting situation, and then come back for the video shoot. Also, I have not heard him play his piece, so I don't know if it will be serious, whimsical, moody or upbeat. That could change the lighting requirements. For all I know, shooting someone playing a large Steinway grand piano might just call for Black and White. Heck, Sepia tone could be right if the piece is particularly sentimental.
    I know I am going to miss many important things, so let me know what you think. Don't assume I know anything. Just assume that any suggestion could be valuable to the success of the video.
    Thanks,
    -- Steven

    Lots of interesting information in these posts. I truly appreciate it.
    I think Rod might be right on target with the Steinway thing. It might be better to not show their logo at all. It certainly simplifies the shoot by orders of magnitude. Not unless there is any chance that the store Manager will be allowed to use it on the in-store monitor.
    Rod's also right that I should probably concentrate on the artist, not the piano. But I doubt I can help getting shots of the hammers on strings. That is the part I find interesting, and the shots have to please me too.
    I really like the high shot. Thanks for showing it to me. That is exactly the kind of thing I wanted to see. I will be connecting my camera to a 1080p HDTV via HDMI to help with focus. I can start the recording with my cell phone via a wireless connection so I don't actually have to stay on the ladder, and my GorillaPod can easily fasten the camera securely to the top of a ladder. The ceiling is not as tall as I would like, but I can get right up against it easily enough. Really good advice. Thanks again.
    About the HDTV, I have seen the focus in a tiny screen and seen in on a large screen. I am better off with the largest screen I can justify. I might take my 24" or I might bite the bullet and take in the 46". They have a monitor on the wall now that I might be able to use if it is still there after the remodel.
    "don't cross the line" - yeah, that is what I thought, but it didn't hurt to hear it anyway.
    I would like a more detailed explanation of why I should stay with 85mm equivalent if you could. That is rather wide isn't it? That makes it harder to blow out the background. Especially if I am using a f/8. I was hoping that test shots would indicate that the black background I was planning to use to block the outside light would be completely black except where I wanted it lit behind the performer, if I decide to go that route. I might just want to backlight him to completely isolate him from the background. Keep in mind that along with my 2.0 multiplier, my sensor is smaller and therefore requires a lower f stop for the same bokeh than yours does. No matter what people say, size does matter.
    As for ISO, I suppose I light it the best I can and set the ISO the the lowest setting that seems appropriate at the time. I am afraid that the pianos, being black, will show all the video noise. I suppose I could get a denoiser plugin, but I would rather not if I don't have to.
    If I get all of the important shots in a day. The entire piece from on high. The entire piece from just above the keyboard, and all of the various shots of the performer, I will be happy. I can shoot the insert shots and other b-roll on another day if need be.
    A lot of this will depend on how reliably he plays his own music over and over again. He has played at Carnegie Hall, so I have to hope he is really good. But reliable as a metronome? Who the heck knows? We shall see.
    As for white balance, I carry a white card and a gray card. I will put them both in every shot as I clap the boards together then remove them.without turning off the camera. Fortunately, the GH3 is very good at shooting long videos. It was built with heat distribution in mind, and the 4G limit tests I have done showed me that I can rely on the files to be frame perfect.
    I can't think of a way to use slow motion in a music video like this. So, I don't see a reason to shoot it in 60p. Which means I need to decide on 24p or 30p. Once I see the new looks in Premiere Pro CC next week and run some test video of the performer prior to the day of the shoot, I should be able to tell if the piece warrants a "film look" or if I am going to go with some attempt at being unique. Like I said, this may be black and white, and if so, 24p makes even more sense to me. But as far as I can tell, lighting for black and white is a bit different than lighting for color. More research is required on that particular subject.
    I shoot almost everything in 60p on the off chance that slow motion will be desired, but this is different. So a lot of test footage will be required. I don't think I need to worry about lighting too much during the test shoots. It is the movement I need to see. Now, if it turns out the piece is really fast, I might want to show his fingers in slow motion in a "making of" video. If that is the case, the I could shoot some 60p just for that usage.
    Besides, who says I only get one try? If the performer likes the results, I might get to shoot him again, and other pianists and maybe other artists that he knows. After all, my prices are the best in town. Free is a great deal. I could get a rep as the music video guy and maybe get a few paid gigs one of these days. That is one of the advantages of being mostly a hobbyist. I can do Pro Bono all I want. I don't rely on the income. Heck, maybe I get good enough to put a training video on YouTube. I could monetize it and people could come to my web site to learn to shoot piano recitals. Unlikely, but possible.
    By the way, if you wanted a Steinway in this area, the San Francisco and Walnut Creek stores that sold them have closed and have been taken over by Steinway & Sons. You missed the big floor model sale. At least I think that is what it was. I have to smile when I see a smallish piano marked down to "only" $50,000.00 or so. Even so, they make really pretty pianos.
    Biggles, your explanation was understood. Thank you. I have watched some videos on the subject of a focus puller. I don't think I will fully grasp the usage until I have one on my hand. I understand, but I don't fully grok it.
    Thanks guys, and feel free to post any and all relevant or even tangential info that might come in handy. I would like to absorb it all to have in the back of my mind as I make the decisions I need to make over the next few weeks. And seriously, if you are in the Bay area you are welcome to bring your cameras, lights, etc, and have some fun. Maybe Bill will be in the area on that Sunday. He would be a great addition to the party. The BART stops right by there.
    I am still searching for videos of interesting shots of pianists. If you spot one, please let me know.

  • Burning video dvd to myitunes?

    I purchased a music video dvd and I want to put the music in my itunes library...how do I do this ?
    Thanks

    The best way -- without buying software or downloading software -- is to use Garageband. Play the song on iTunes then use Garageband to record it. Don't play the song in Garageband (it won't allow you to do that).

  • Final Cut for music videos

    Is Final Cut a good program for making good music videos? I wanted to make a AMV with effects somewhat like the ones found here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J52FFA2_flo . I know this one is EXTREMELY technical, so i won't be able to actually pull it off even if it was possible. But can i do a video like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYd3fOpgrK4 with FC? Thanks

    alright. then what kind of programs would you use to make videos such as the ones i've linked. I've made music videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDVp4coIE5M and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AM974k_-Bqc are two that i have already made. These were made using Windows Movie Maker. This http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dp4nukaC6z8 was compiled using iMovie. So i have an idea of what i'm doing, and what i'm trying to do. I just want to know what kind of new capabilities will be available to me with FC. I have done research using google, youtube, and looking around these forums to find out the capabilities of FC. I appologize for misunderstanding your previous posts, but i do appritiate your help on the matter.

  • How can I use a DVD of my band playing a song to create a Premiere 11 music video?

    Hi Everybody,
    I've been making a couple of music videos on Adobe Premiere 11 by the usual way of loading in a music track and then adding photos and an occasional live video segment (with the sound of that video segment turned off). Now however, I have a DVD with both music and video of my band playing a song in a club. I'd like to load it into Premiere 11 so as to make it into a music video that also has a title screen at the beginning and one at the end (as I've done before on my other Premiere 11 music videos that I created). After, I'd plan on uploading the Premiere 11 music video to YouTube.
    My question: What steps would I use to load the DVD of both live video and live music into Premiere 11, that's on my laptop, so as to make a music video out of it on my Adobe software?
    I'd appreciate any feedback, especially since I'm kinda new at using Premiere 11.
    Thanks!
    Bob

    Bob
    Based on your description initially or latest report, I am interpreting your description as an easy can do in Premiere Elements 11.
    It would be good to know what is on the DVD disc (DVD-VIDEO format on DVD disc or some video files burned to the DVD disc as data disc).
    But, either way, your answer to using the DVD disc content as source media in your Premiere Elements 11 project is as follows....
    1. Insert the DVD disc in the burner tray.
    2. Open Premiere Elements 11 to its Expert workspace.
    3. Go to Add Media/DVD camera or computer drive/Video Importer.
    4. In Video Importer, assure that the Source field at the top is targeted at your drive with the disc in it
    a. you should see your video files on the DVD....if DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, then you need the check marks next to
    VTS_01_1.VOB and so on in the series of that file, such as VTS_01_2.VOB, VTS_01_3.VOB. Each file, except maybe the
    last one should have a file size of 0.99 GB. If instead someone has burned a bunch of video files (.mov, .mp4....) to a DVD disc
    as data disc, then you will find a bunch of files .mov, mp4 to which you will apply a check mark.
    b. In the Video Importer dialog, have a check mark next to Add to Timeline, then hit Get Media which will put the file(s) in Project Assets and on the Timeline.
    Please review and consider and then let us know if the above targeted what you asked.
    Thank you.
    ATR
    Add On...More details are relevant such as project preset - you setting it manually versus the project setting it automatically.
    But, we will save that for next time if we are on the right track for your overall task.

  • How do you get music from your Itunes to your computer? im making a wedding video on windows movie maker but cant figure out how to get the bridal music off my ipod and onto my pc.

    Im making a wedding video and cant figure out how to get the bridal music off my itunes and onto my computer.. Im using the windows movie maker

    Marian,
    Let's be clear on one thing here. The manual setting is an iPod setting, not an iTunes one. So, once you've set it to manual (and you appear to have done that correctly), then you can connect it to any number of computers without changing that setting.
    "The grey thing occurs on one pc only"
    This is the thing that I don't understand, if your iPod is set to manual, then it shouldn't happen on any computer. If you connect the iPod that is set to manual to this pc, and then click on it in the source listing, then you would be looking at the songs on the iPod, and they should not be greyed out. When you connect to the "other pc" under these same circumstances, they are not greyed out?
