Removing objects in the background of imovie

After a nights worth of filming, i realised that in one of my scenes, you can see the tripod in the background and i was just wondering if there was anyway i could remove it. I don't want to crop the scene because its right in the middle of the frame and i need the surroundings of it. Is it possible to just like colour it out or something?
Any suggestions?

You'll probably get more knowledgeable answers in one of the iMovie forums. But, I would guess that you would need more powerful editing software such as Final Cut Express or Pro or similar to do such a thing.

  • How do I remove objects in the background of a picture?

    I just got Elements 8 and have no idea how to use it!

    This program has a number of tools which you have to become familiar with if you are going to use it.
    Open the Editor of the program, under HELP you can click on GETTING STARTED, KEY CONCEPTS, VIDEO TUTORIALS.
    The GUIDED EDIT is  excellent for a beginner.
    There are available a number of books targeted to PEv.8
    Last, but not least, these forum pages provide a lot of useful information.

    Generally, using a different program than Lightroom, e.g. Photoshop.
    Note: you can remove objects in Lightroom by stringing dust-spot removal bubbles across them, but that may or may not be preferrable. If you do go that route, it may be essential to position strategically *after* initial placement.

  • Problem removing Objects from the stage in Flash CS4 (AS3.0)

    I have a problem with this code:
    this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, vanish);
    function vanish(event:Event):void{
         if(character_mc.hitTestObject(vanish_mc)){
              vanish_mc.parent.removeChild(vanish_mc);
    There are two overlapping objects on my stage: character_mc and vanish_mc.
    As soon as i start the scene[Ctrl+Enter] vanish_mc is VISUALLY removed. But the code still sees a collision somehow. How can i Entirely remove the object vanish_mc?
    Thank you for help and advice.

    Ah I think the problem is what my problem not which I proposed, my bad I was trying to keep it simple.
    the remove code in my problem actually looks like this:
    if(character_mc.hitTestObject(this["dollar_mc_"+String(i)])){
         removeChild(this["dollar_mc_"+String(i)]);
    I wanted it to be that way so I could add infinite "dollar_mc_" ' s without writing myself to death with code and or getting confused.
    Imagine it like a game where a character it picking up dollars, which would disappear once they intersect.
    And that exactly is what gives me that argument.
    Do you know a way i could write this code, or do you suggest to leave it that way...because it does run and work im just getting this argument while debugging.
    Thank you for all the help~

  • Ho to remove tint in the background of scanned PDF?

    My colleague circulated a scanned PDF of a journal article, but it has a light tint in the background. I think the scanner picked up the light, yellowish tint of the paper. 
    It's very cumbersome, because regular laser printers strive reproduce the tint in the background even in the B&W mode, which I'd rather not.
    Is there any way to remove the background tint in a scanned PDF?

    Might be a strategy by the copyright holder to stop exactly this sort of thing. Cleaning up a PDF is best done with something like Photoshop, after scanning but before making a PDF. Labour intensive.

  • Help - how can I remove text in the background?

    I am translating a text from English into Portuguese in a document created in Germany (as .mif 7).
    After I inserted the Portuguese text, a ruler and the words "498 Entwurf 15.06.2011" in red and "Abstand" in sky blue started to appear in the background, as well as some kind of a grid (please see attached image). I need them to disappear when the document is printed, but I haven't been able to make them disappear so far. The words in red indicate the name of the document (498) and the date when it was originally created. I need the document to have a white background only with the letters in black and images (just like the original, but in Portuguese - no words in sky blue and red and no grid).
    This is probably easy to solve and I may sound really silly, but I've already lost 3 hours and I'm getting desperate because I need to deliver the document as soon as possible.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Best,
    Paulo Rodrigues

    Hi,
    I think the converter you are using to convert it to portuguese is a free converter and it has been noticed that when you use the free or trial version of any converter ,it generally puts its name in the PDF document and you have to buy that product to get rid of it.If thats true then we would not be able to remove that text.
    Kindly let me know if thats correct what i said.
    Thanks

  • Deleting an object in the background

    Looking on the internet it seems I should use a tool called content aware to remove this object; however, I am unable to find that tool in Photoshop Elements 10. How do I remove an object from a picture in this program?

    Generally speaking, there are three ways:
    1. Open a blank layer at the top in your stack of layers in the layers palette, then use the clone tool to cover the object that you wish to hide from view.
    2. Make a selection from an adjacent area with one of the selection tools, place the selection on a new layer, then with the move tool slide the "patch" over the object in order to hide it
    3. Use the recompose tool.
    If you are so inclined, post the picture here for targeted guidance. You can do that via the camera icon at the top of the reply box. You can not do it in an e-mail reply, however.

  • How to add canvas to the background of a form in j2me

    I am new to j2me. I am developing a mobile application in j2me. Is there a way of adding a canvas object to the background of a form? I tried searching in net with few people suggesting to use "jmepolish". I have no idea what jmepolish is..Is there a way to do this with normal j2me classes?

    Short answer: You can't. There are two types of Displayables (javax.microedition.lcdui.Displayable): Screen items and the Canvas item.
    You have no control of the appearance of Screen items: Alert, Form, List, TextBox. The implementation(phone maker) decided the appearance of those items. You can only alter the appearance of Canvas and GameCanvas.
    If you want to change the appearance of a Form you should check out something like LWUIT or J2ME Polish.

  • Please make a permanent solution to stop applications from running in the background

    'multitasking' is not a very usefull invention and should have a permanent solution, to stop applications from running in the background instead of having to go in and exit them. the only thing that is usefull is to go in and click on next song under music, everything else running in the background can just be exited as far as im concerned, its not like i have 400 applications, and i have to go searching through my phone to find them

    Push twice on the Home button to display running apps. Press on one and hold until they wiggle. Tap on the circled red "x" to remove each from the background. Note that backgrounded apps are not actually running until you access them except for those that have been written to run concurrently such as Music, which can continue playing while you are using other apps.

  • Activating the ODS in the background

    We have just applied secondary indexes to a very large ODS object in our Production environment.  The system allows me to save the changes to the ODS, however, when I try to activate the ODS object, it is timing out.  I assume this is because the system is creating the indexes upon activation.  How do I activate the ODS object in the background?  Since the original activation timed out, do I need to do any cleanup before attempting to activate the ODS in the background?  Any help is very appreciated.

    HI,
    Activate you ODS when the server load is relatively low.
    Following things are to be considered when ODS activation fails:
    1. If your ODS activation fails, in BW SM37, job will fail. This doesnot mean that you reactivate it immediately. There are some chances that it will fail again.
    <b>Reason:</b>
       It will take some time to rollback all the activated records (as activation of some records might have happened).
    <b>HOW to know Rollback taken place or not..?</b>
    1. In SM37 Double Click on (Failed) Job
    2. Click on "Job Details" button
    3. Pop-up window will be displayed
    4. Note down "Executing Server Name" & WP Number/PID
    5. Go to Tcode: SM51, You can see Application server names
    6. Find your Servername and click on the server
    7. You will navigate to another screen
    8. In that PID (3rd Column) you click on the PID# (that you have noted)
    9. If the PID is still running with records, then it means that records are still rolling back.
    10. Once the rollback is over, all that data will be displayed with "0 (zero)" records.
    Then you activate your ODS. Now the ODS activation will run on new PID#.
    <b>Note:</b>
    If you start running immediately after ODS activation failure, then ODS activation will run on the same PID# which it previously ran and activation makes slower (and timeout might happen).
    Check stpes from 1 to 10 when any ODS activation takes place you can know how the records are updating.
    Hope this helps you....
    Thanks,
    Shyam

  • How can I get the background music from iMovie trailer, "Romance"to be used in another imovie?

    Is there any way to download the background music from the  iMovie trailer template "Romance" to be used in another iMovie of greater length than that of a trailer?

    In addition to Tom's good advice, another method is to access the audio file in iMovie's package contents folder.
    In Finder, in the Applications folder, right-click (or control-click) on iMovie.app and select Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu. Open the folder Contents>Resources. In that folder you will find components for each Trailer, including the soundtrack. The file you are seeking is named "SoundTrack - Romance.m4a".
    Copy then paste the file to your Desktop (don't otherwise mess with items in package contents folders!). Open the file in QuickTime - it is titled "Love Story FC2". Opening the Inspector in QuickTime (Window>Show Movie Inspector) reveals it as AAC format. If you wish, as Tom indicated, you can Export the file from QuickTime in other sound formats, such as AIFF. If preferred, you can import either the AAC file or the converted file to iTunes (or other audio apps) for use as required.

  • How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBoo

    for my MacBook Air problem adding music intensifier (Panasonic ST-HT1000) to give it an unpleasant sound background that sounds like a whiz, it's not so loud, but it is an unpleasant .. after a short time can get used to, but the fizz does not pass, however, believe that it is a big problem.
    Further I notice that when MacBookAir disconnected from the charger, it remains quieter sound.
    At first thought that the headphone jack (3.5 mm Headphone:
    Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack) or wiere have problem, but tried 3 different cables, but that does change enything, the problem remains.
    When I added iPhonu3GS playing - the background sound were not, then everything is OK!
    How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBook Air 13?

    There is no way to bring that up unless you have it typed in a document. You can use My Support Profile to find a list of serial numbers that have been purchased or registered with your Apple ID.
