Need help- filming soccer - want to insert marker on player!

Question

Hi- I am filming soccer games and want to highlight a player by insecting some form of marker on the player so a viewer identify them from a distance during the video
How can I do this? I am using Adobe Elements 4.0 on vista. THX

Answer 1

it says "audio code missing" and won't play
My guess would be that that message should read "Audio CODEC." This is an encoding/decoding plug-in for your player. I do not remember exactly which file format and CODEC's (Audio and Video) Curt's tutorials use, but will go check now. For Curt's site, you do NOT need to subscribe to anything. On Muvipix, you can just sign-up, and then buy various things, or can subscribe and download EVERYTHING. Years ago, I did the "math," and instantly subscribed.
As I mentioned above, there are three Keyframeing tutorials on Muvipix. They were written and produced by Steve Grisetti and Chuck Engels. I do not recall if they are free, for just the sign-up, or if they are only free to subscribers.
I have to admit that I am anything but a Keyframe guru in PrElements. I use it in PrPro and AfterEffects all of the time. I would not be without it. Even a lot of my Transitions are done by Keyframing Effects, rather than the standard Transitions. However, in PrE, if I had to do Keyframing, I'd head to Muvipix and get Steve and Chuck's tutorials, just to see the differences in PrE, from my editing program, PrPro. I know the latter very well, but the former, not so well.
Heck, when answering PrE questions, I normally have to have that program open on my computer, just to check out my memory. The two Premieres are similar, though different enough to keep me on my toes!
I'll be back with the data on Curt's tutorials.
In the meantime, you might also want to get two additional players, VLC Player and MediaPlayer Classic. Both are freeware, and contain most common CODEC's, so they play AV files natively, where Windows Media Player and QuickTime will often struggle with additional CODEC's.
