Motion, Animation, Keyframes and a Video Clip.

Hello out there!
I'm putting together a music video for my students to promote a choir club at a school. In doing so, I would like part of the video to scroll from left to right.
To give you a visual, I'm trying to produce this effect: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXit8kxCCTg
I know it has everything to do with keyframes and knowing how to use them, but I'm having difficulty trying to figure out the coordinates of the anchor points, and where they have to be, and when. It's really a math and logic issue...
I have already exported an entire video and have created a new project where the entire video is in one clip. (Does this make sense?)
Any help on this issue would be super appreciated.

Thanks a lot! It works!!

Stop Motion using photos + combining with video clips

We have about 3000 sequenced photos we want to put together into a Stop Motion video. We would also like to add an actual video clip to the beginning and to the end of the Stop Motiuon segment. Can this all be done in Premiere Pro? If so how? If not - what other Creative Cloud programs should we use and how?
Thanks.

Importing and organizing video clips

I have a question about iMovie. I've made a few movies with it but am no pro. I am really anal about organizing my photos, music, videos, etc. and for that I love iPhoto. If i've just taken some pictures on my digital camera but don't quite have a use for them yet I can just name the roll and save them in iPhoto. With iMovie it's a different story. Whenever I hook my DV camcorder up I have been importing the video i took into iMovie, BUT it makes me save it into a project. What if I don't have a project in mind yet that I want to use this footage for but I just want to get it off my camera and store it on my computer or in iMovie for future use and easy access when I do decide to use that footage in a project or a movie I am creating? Any idea or suggestions?

One way is to do it manually. When you import to iMovie it stores the clips in a folder inside the project called "Media" and the video files are usually Clip 01, Clip 02, etc. Ya not very descriptive names, but you could rename them all after importing to give them meaningful names. If you don't need the project other than to import them, then import, rename, then drag and drop those to your storage folder(s). Trash the project or use it again to import more.
Then you can create a generic folder structure to help you organize. Something like this...
Video Clip Archives
. . . Vacations
. . . . . . Aruba
. . . . . . Disney
. . . Family
. . . . . . Kids
. . . . . . Aunt Martha
etc.
Inside the folders put the clips in. Give them date names or something to help. Like 060798-01, 060798-02 which would be the first two clips from June 7th 1998 and if they were in the Aruba folder then you know they are from a vacation you took to Aruba in June of 1998.
Nice thing about this system is you are not dependent on some application which may or may not be around years from now and in fact you are not even dependent on having a Mac. You could move this folder structure to another computer since the clips are generic DV formatted files, they can be read on other systems.

How to edit and splice video clips

I have 3 video clips that I wish to edit and join together.

Use Premiere Elements, not Photoshop Elements:
Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Help and tutorials

I have been trying to create a movie from a project that is primarily stills and one video clip. I cannot successfully create the movie without iMovie shutting down unexpectedly. Any ideas for the cause of the problem?

I am getting an unexpected shut down of iMovie when I try to share a movie from a project that is made up of still pictures, one video clip and music. Have tried to create the movie several times with different formats and continue to get the message. When I removed all music I was able to create the movie without a problem but when I added the music back, I was unable to create the movie. I'm using iMoive 11' version 9.0.9
Thanks.

I'm no expert in iMovie, but I've found that processing memory (as well as sheer hard disk space for the project to 'turn around in') can be a big issue with constructing, editing, and distilling projects in iMovie. I've improved the success by moving 2gb of image files off to an external drive, but only really got moving again on an hour-long project by doubling RAM and again freeing up h/d space.
Some tunes are also an issue, but if you can see it in the iTunes list to place in your project, it should work okay... Does the project run with any other piece of music, or does just that one tune mess it up?
Good luck,
Laura

How-to Convert Animation (swf) to flv video clips

Hi,
Has anyone here on the forums ever created flv video out of
animations i.e. swf files.
Kind Regards,
Boxing Boom

to convert a swf file to avi or mov you need a third party
application to accomplish that, there are few of those google it.
In case you want to export a .fla animation to a video
format, just go to File -> Export -> and select the
appropriate container (avi, mov) change the output settings on the
dialog box and you're ready to go.

7610s Animated thumbnails in Video clips folder

I got my 7610s last week and was flicking through the folders when I came to the Video clips folder and I was plesently supprised to see it had animated thumbnails for the video clips .
I then updated to the latest software form my phone model and now the thumbnails arent animated anymore - they just show a small video camera ontop of a previews picture.
Is this an option I need to turn on to get it working again or has this been removed from the latest firmware (If so, WHY !!!!)

Fixed it!!!
Ok, here's how to do it, for future reference. I think in my case the problem was the frame rate. It was set at 24, but as per http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4025, apple likes 30fps for a 640px movie.
So, if this happens to you, run it through MPEG streamclip (it's a free download) and convert it to 30 FPS Jpeg mov files.
man, such a relief! I hope this helps others.

Irregardless of the Premiere Elements version...
I do not believe you are doing anything wrong. I have not found it possible to copy a Timeline clip to which Time Remapping has been applied and use Paste Effects and Adjustments to other selected clips on the Timeline to achieve the same fast or slow motion for more than one clip at a time. For one thing the duration of the Time Remapped clip is different than those that have not gone through Time Remapping.
And, you cannot select more than 1 clip at a time to be taken into the Time Remapping workspace.
Also, special considerations need to exist for Pan and Zoom Tool for its pan and zoom effect applied to more than one photo at a time.

I will think about this some more. But, at this moment, it appear to be it is what it is.

Can I use imovie to make a movie by first making a soundtrack and then adding video clips to illustrate the sound track?

I want to make a movie using imovie 11.
I want to import still photos taken from the inet and import video clips of myself over the stills. I also want this movei to illustrate a soundtrack of my singing with a karaoke file.
Is this possible?
How would I get my voice singing with the itune song so my singing and the itune become one track?
Then could I use that soundtrack to build the movie, rather than start with video an add soundtrack?
This is an ambitions project.
HELP!

Hi
This is a No and Yes question.
No You can not add Audio first in any iMovie from iMovie'08 (version 7.0.x) and onwards. You need to use FinalCut Pro X to do this - Where it's rather straight forward.
Yes - it is a bit tedious but can be faked in iMovie - by first creating a Black .jpg photo. Add this to TimeLine in iMovie as many times (and at max duration) to reserve the time the movie will use. Then add Your Audo track. Then add Your photo and videosequences. There are a function in iMovie that let's You replace the original video with the one You want to insert - "Cutaway" - Then continue till all Black parts are replaced. Movie done !
But really - take a look at FinalCut where this is much easier.

Displaying File Name for Photo and Video Clips in Premiere Elements 10

I am using Premier Elements 10 on a Windows 7 Pro desktop computer to create
a project consisting of 128 jpg photo and mp4 video clips. Before creating
the project I created a short file name for each clip describing its
content. I've added menu tags at locations which separate the project into
discrete segments. I've selected a disc menu which utilizes the menu tags I
created. I previewed the project and I'm satisfied that the DVD disc I
intend to create will display everything I want except for one thing. I
have spent several hours trying to find out how to have each displayed clip
include the file name (without extension) somewhere near the edge of each
window as it is opened in the finished production. I sure would appreciate
some help with the steps needed to accomplish this.

Welcome to the forum.
This can most easily be accomplished by adding a Title (maybe from a Lower-Thirds Title Template), above each Clip/Still Image.
I would create one such Title, and manually add the "File Name" in the location desired. Then, place that on a higher Video Track, above the Clip/Still. Then, just use the Duplicate Title function, to create a new Title, with the Text and Style, per the first - edit the Text for each, as required.
I know of no automated method to grab the Clip's/Still's File Name, and add that to a Title, as PrE does not support any scripting.
Good luck,
Hunt

Whilst on holiday i downloaded pictures from my digital camera to my ipad along with video clips. they ran fine. i have just synced with my macbook and the videos have been removed with a message to say that my ipad cant play them! why?

Whilst on holiday I downloaded pictures and video from my digital camera to my ipad. everything was fine. The digital pics and video footage played great! i have just got back and synced my ipad with my macbook and the video clips have been put onto the macbook but not reinstalled on the ipad. I get a message to say that the video clips have not been loaded as the ipad cant play them! Why has this happened? As i deleted the original clips off the camera once they were originally loaded onto the ipad i have no way of reinstalling them. Wat can i do to get them back onto the ipad?

ps when syncing it jumps through steps 1 - 4 real fast, i seem to remeber iphone showing the number of tracks transferring and names, but i see nothing? then it sits on 5 saying "waiting for changes to be applied"

Add video clips to library

Most camera shoot video clips now including some DSLRs. So add video clips to library and view video clips. I not talking about adding a new module but I would like to add those Point and shoot AVI files to the library and be able to view them.

After nearly two years of frustration both with LR itself and with the commentary posted by LR developers I am compelled to voice a certain question/complaint. Please understand that I have followed the requests and responses in this forum and elsewhere very closely since LR's inception (and earlier). My mind is very open to the various ways that different people work and the limitations of both current technology and development time. I understand that LR is a baby and will grow more and more useful over time as newer versions are produced.
I fail to clearly understand the purpose of LR.
After years of Adobe developing fragmented programs they decided to unify them within the Creative Suite. As newer versions of the CS have been developed, the way the individual programs interact has become more streamline. Unnecessary programs have been set aside and newer ones have been adapted to fit within the CS. Most recently the Macromedia product line, which first was loosely part of the CS family and now seems fully integrated with PS, Ai, ID and the others.
LR was purposely developed not to fit into the CS. Myself and others may not have fully understood the reasons for it but we accepted that LR promised to think outside the box - to bring a differnt way of thinking that was not subject to legacy workhabits. But with Jeff continually putting down the need for video and many other requested functions I doubt the legitimacy of the LR vision. To not allow photo & video to operate seamlessly together, even with limited functionality, completely lacks any foresight. Obviously video will be incorporated eventually, if for no other reason than we, the consumers, demand it. But to try and deny it is to deny the industry, the future.
My case in point is not RED or the Canon 5DM2, rather it is two of the programs within the newest iteration of Adobes own suite, CS4. The way InDesign files can be opened in Flash and manipulated there to allow for seamless publishing to the web. A few years ago most print publishers (and print software developers) may have balked at the suggestion that Quark or ID needed to "work well" with a web developer. But since all media (visual, motion, sound, database and web programming, animation, etc. see http://mediastorm.com/ for a taste of the future) are united it is hardly a stretch to ask Video and Still photography to live side by side - especially if they are created from the same device!
What's next, a phone that allows you to check your email, take photos & videos and surf the web?!
Why can't LR play nicely with everyone else? Maybe we need to start over.

Importing video clips in AVCHD (Lite) into Aperture vs iMovie

I'm trying to figure out which application I should use for importing and storing video clips shot on my Panasonic DMC-ZS7 camera. This camera can shoot in AVCHD (Lite) or in Motion JPEG. I use the AVCHD (Lite) format to shoot the videos with this camera.
The two application options I currently have for importing video clips from this camera are:
a. Aperture 3.5.1 (I'm not using iPhoto since I have Aperture).
b. iMovie 10.0.1 (I'm not using Final Cut Pro)
When I first got this camera, Aperture 3 did not support the AVCHD Lite codec. Back then, iMovie could import video clips shot in AVCHD Lite, but it had to transcode the AVCHD video clips into AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec). Some time later, one of the Aperture 3 updates made it possible to import AVCHD Lite into Aperture (without having to transode into an intermediate codec), so we started importing our video clips shot in AVCHD Lite (together with our photos shot by the same camera) directly into Aperture.
iMovie 10 released in 2013 supports importing video clips shot in AVCHD Lite without having to transode them to AIC for storing these video clips in iMovie. So, now we have a dilemma that we need help with. Which application should we use going forward for importing video clips from this camera?
When I look at the metadata for the imported videos in Aperture, I see that the format of the imported video clips is listed as H.264. However, I can't seem to be able to find any information about the format in which iMovie stores imported videos. I can "Reveal in Finder" a video that I import into iMovie, and I see the size of the file and the .mov extension assigned to the file. With video files, the extension does not always determine the codec of the file, but in my non-expert opinion, the .mov extension is not H.264; I may be totally wrong here, though. What I have noticed, though, is that a video clip imported into iMovie has the file size that is about 10% larger than the same video clip imported into Aperture.
Therefore, I have three questions:
1. What format is a video clip (shot in AVCHD Lite) stored in Aperture 3.5.1 and in iMovie 10.0.1
2. Which format (the one used by Aperture or the one used in iMovie) is better suited for transoding AVCHD videos into? The balance of the quality and file size is the main consideration for us.
3. Which applications would you personally prefer using for importing video clips to and why?
I do want to use some of these video clips to make home videos in the future, utillizing iMovie. However, it seems I can still store the raw footage in Aperture and access this raw footage from iMovie to be able to create an iMovie project and a final home video. One of the concerns is that if we keep importing our video clips into Aperture, the Aperture library could grow beyond the size that Aperture can support and we may end up losing our photos due to the database corruption. Is this a real risk?
Thank you!

I had the same question recently. Go to the right of this box and a little above, into the Search Discussions window. Type in this: Is MPEG2 the answer
You will find my question, and the great answers I got. Follow those directions and you will be all set!
