Similar To Ken Burns - But it looks like only the subject is being zoomed in and the background is staying where it is?
Hi there
Obviously I dont know the correct term for this otherwise I'd google it, but I see this effect more and more on "Making Of" special features.
It makes it look like a person, or obejct is moving (in towards the camera/screen) within a static image.
Does anyone know what this is called or how to do it in FCPX?

If I understand what you are saying, this involves a little preparation.
For greater control, I would use Motion for this, but is not really hard to do (or at least simulate) in FCP X.
You'd want to use software like Photoshop or similar (Photoshop Elements is more than adequate - or, if the foreground is clearly contrasted to the background, even the "Instant Alpha" feature from Preview might do it).
The purpose of this preparation step is to create a version of the foreground image (let's say, a person), cutting the background (i.e. leaving only the person against a transparent background).
In FCP X,
add the background to your main storyline and add the foreground above it, as a connected clip. Now you can do anything to the foregound (like, for example, applying Ken Burns to it), leaving the background intact.
Note that this effect would be more dramatic in Motion, using a 3D group, to give a feeling of the person standing out. This kind of effect is referred to as 2.5D, as we're trying to simulate the third dimension (depth) by pulling apart two 2D images (the foreground and the background).
Ahh, this sounds something like what I'm after. I will have a look at it. Thanks

You would need to purchase it within the country in which your are trying to use it. CDMA devices are tied to a specific carrier (for example, a Sprint CDMA iPhone will not work on Verizon's CDMA network). I'd contact the carrier your interested in using.

Hi,
Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
Turn the Phone On...
If that does not help... See Here:

My IPad2 just got fixed at the Apple Store, but it looks like they loaded up the latest iOS. When i got it home and mated it to ITunes(MacBook Pro), I was prompted to load the latest OS into my main computer which now runs on OS X version 10.5.8...how do i get the latest OS so i can get the latest iTunes and am i looking at problems with the MacBook buy leap frogging so many OS's?
Buy Snow Leopard here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Install it, update to OS X 10.6.8 using Software Update, and then you'll be all set with iOS 7. -
I have an iphone 4 had it for awhile but yesteday the back camera is blurry. I've had this happen before but it looked like there was steam in the camera lens and I let that air out and it went back to normal. So whats the problem this time? My mom isn't willing to buy me another iphone because before I went to a concert and the speakers messed up half the screen. If its the software acting up can I get a free new one?
Moisture has somehow entered your iPhone and specifically the camera. They will do an out-of-warranty replacement for $149 USD.

I lost my iPhone 4s I press Vito find my iPhone but wife find it but is look like is lock the screen is blue
Hello Eltitiramirez,
It sounds like you are unable to unlock your phone after putting it into Lost mode, because the screen is blue. I would reset the phone with this:
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
That should force the phone to restart, so you can enter the passcode to get the phone out of Lost mode.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling -
On my G5 mac at work, I am getting - don't know what to call it - looks like extraneous matrix type code around prompt windows and in applications. Sometimes I will get large shapes of colors, yellows, magentas, cyans. Anyone else experience this?
I will attach a recent screen shot of a print window I opened and the extra code is above and below the window. There are matrix type blocks of code and then lines under the window. I get this all the time and it is getting worse.
Any help to get rid of it would be appreciated.
Thanks

Is there a way to transfer or copy all my apps to another iPad with a different account? I was required in my job to use the one at work, but I would like to also see my current set ups and apps as in my personal one. Thank you so much!
What I suggest is that you try to pair your apple ID with you company ipad and see if it works.
Here is why::
I believe that the Apple rules let you. They are something like:
-- for a shared iDevice, you may put the app on one device
-- for a device you use exclisively, you may put the app on five (or some number) of iDevices
I'm not lawyer, so how you interpred this is a question.
Now, you need to figure out how to do this.
In the past at least, apple used this terminalogy.
Personal
Institution
Layered. combines personal & institution.
It depends on how your company has configured the iPad.
I have read where you can have upto three apple id per device. -
How can I burn a copy of my project to a DVD . I do not have IDVD because I have the Lion OS. I did purchase Wondershare for burning but it will not load the iMovie events or projects
There is no proper substitute for iDVD.
Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac?
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3673
UPDATE & ADDENDUM:
But even though you can still buy iLife 11 that includes iDVD 7 from Amazon, Apple now make it difficult to install:
Poster jhb21939 posted this in another thread:
“when I attempted to load iDVD into a new iMac. A notice came up on the screen stating that the 'Authorisation Licence' had expired on 25 March this year (2012).
I contacted the Apple support team and eventually, I was told that the Licence had been withdrawn and could no longer be used.”
In other words Apple are now so adamant that we don’t use iDVD that they have tried to make it impossible to install.
In response, Old Toad posted this solution:
“You can still use it one all of your Macs. If you get an invalid certificate message just set your Mac's clock to sometime before early 2011 and run the installer. After you're done reset the time back to the correct time.” He added this comment:
“It began after iDVD and iWeb were discontued and they were dropped from the Apple Store. All I can think of is the certificate was set to expire after a certain time period after the intitial iLife disc was released.
I've been able to use the installer even without setting back the date. I just clicked on the Continue button and it would work as expected. For some it would not continue unless the date was set back.”
The latest anorexic iMacs just announced do not even include a CD drive! Proof positive that Apple virtually prohibit the use of DVDs - although the newly announced Mac Minis do include a Superdrive.
Yet, they still include iMovie! Heaven alone knows or understands what you are supposed to do with your newly edited masterpiece - except make a low quality version for YouTube? -
My PC Windows 7 hard drive crashed. I have a new hard drive. But i lost all my CD's that i had burned onto iTunes. They are all still on my iPhone 4s, but when i sync, only the purchased songs will import. Is there anyway to retrieve them? Thanks!
Restore your library from your most recent backup (you do keep regular backups, I hope). If the hard drive is in any way salvageable it may be possible to mount it in an external enclosure, connect it to your PC, and retrieve data from it even if it is not functioning as a primary OS drive (if you don't have the kit necessary to do this, your local PC repair shop may be able to help). Failing that, you can always recreate your library by re-importing your CDs.

any idea how i restore my office email account, looks like i have moved all items to trash and now have no email account ! no time machine either
let's go back to your original post: what do you mean "it looks like you moved all items to trash"??
You DID move them to trash? (we can discuss WHY once we cure you)...
Can you open a window in finder and get to applications and then to utilities? Is MAIL in there?
And your "office email account"-- do you mean physical office, like place of work and you want that account in your mac mail on your computer? ~OR~ do you mean, microsoft office,mail account?
The difference is necessary to know...
