Slowing Down movie clips? TakingtheMoviefromtheSound?

I have two questions:
1) Is it possible to slow-down parts of a movie?
2) I know how to take sound from movie clips, but can I do it the other way around? As in take the movie from the audio?
Thanks to anyone who helps!

.. how to take sound from movie clips ...
I understood that different to
... if it's possible to extract the clip from audio...
"taking from" I did read as "erase", "extract" is seperating two thing (audio+video into two streams)
but, sure:
extract the audio; then, after selecting the video by clicking into it, you are able to copy/paste/move/shift/... that video to any other place, timeline or back to clippane. (this will probably "transfer" the included audio too, so you have to extract audio/erase audio again) ..
the "extract audio" command just copies/"doubles" the included audio to one of the two additional audiotracks of iM and mutes to original track..

Is there a way to speed up or slow down video clips in iMovie using the iPad?

Is there a way to speed up or slow down video clips using iMovie on the iPad? I do not have an Apple computer...just the iPad.

No.
There are other apps that can to time shifting, or speed effects.
iMovie cannot.

I am trying to convert a video clip so that i can slow down the clip speed, but i keep getting an error -34. any ideas?

I am trying to convert a video clip, already in imovie so that I can slow down the clip speed, but I keep getting an error -34. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi Russ,
Thanks for your response. I am not an experienced user of FC or other video editing software but if its that hit and miss I think I will go to the trouble of finding some better software - I have a busy enough life as is, I don;t want to get into second guessing what a software problem might be!
I have just successfully exported my video to a master file using one of the Apple codec options so it looks like it could be to do with the H.264 codec. I am wondering if Apples Compressor software would solve this problem - the only way to try this it to buy it, there is not trial for the compressor app. Any ideas?
Thanks

Gradually slow down a clip?

I want to slow down a clip from 100% to 0% speed, like using pitch blender in sound.
Actually to match a slowed sound. Is there a way please? So far I only know how to
razor the clip and slow it down in tiny segments, but that seems kinda rough.
Thanks anyone
Steve z

Click on the clip and then go up to the Effect Controls panel and keyframe the Time Remapping effect from 100% to 0%.
Although as you approach 0% the clip can get pretty long so you will want to drop to zero in a big jump part way along.

How do I slow down a clip, smoothly from full-speed to full-stop, then speed up again?

I know that I can adjust the speed of a clip, but what I can't figure out how to do easily is make the clip slow down smoothly, as though time was freezing over a period of say 10-seconds, until it stops.
My way of describing this (although I know it's easier than this) is to individually clip each frame and set each frames speed at 99%,98%,97%,96% until 0%
I have read there is a way of doing this by automation, but wonder if someone can tell me how it is done?
Thanks for the help, cheers, MP.

Is there a way to slow down all clips by 75%

I am trying to slow down all the clips in a project to 75% (Sports footage). There seems to be a way to do this individually but no way to do it across all clips. Is there? if not, sure would like to see this in the next version.

Hi WeeJavaDude,
If you are looking to change the speed of multiple clips in iMovie, you may find the following article helpful:

FCPX: Slowing down imported clips

I want to use some live footage from another movie in my video but I need to slow it down a bit. Is there a way to do this in FCPX?

[seriously?]
Right click on the clip in the storyline and select Retime (or type command-R). Click on the handle (vertical hash marks on the "speed bar") and drag it out to the speed you need (feedback in the retime speed bar). You can also select preset speed changes from the disclosure triangle dropdown menu on the speed bar.

Can I slow down title clips?

I'm trying to create a movie project for my school and I wanted to use the Far far away title screen, however, when I play it back the words move too quickly for anyone to read up the screen. Is there a way to slow this down? The speed optin is grayed out for me and when I go to Modify> Slow Motion those options are grayed out as well... Help!

Can't figure out how to slow down a clip in iMovie HD

I used to be able to import a clip, select it, and then slow it down (or speed it up) with a rabbit/tortoise slider at the bottom. I can't seem to find this feature since I upgraded to iMove HD.

just found this:
Click on the Effects button and you'll find one called Fast/Slow/Reverse.

Quality changes after rendering/speeding up/slowing down a clip in FCP 6

I use mpegstreamclip to get my canon 7d footage into FCP. Everything looks fine until I render it.
I set my mpegstream clip settings to apple pro res, full quality, 1920x1080 (unscaled), 30 fps.
What am I doing wrong here?

I'll need more info to narrow down on the problem.
When you play it in the timeline, everything plays fine, right?
What format did you digitize? MiniDV?
What timecode is changing?
If you Export as quicktime movie, there is no timecode.
If your refering to the timecode in the browser, make sure your looking at the MEDIA START & END (Not the in & out)
When your refering different footage, are you speaking of a completely different shot from your footage? Or is the cut just off?
Check this setting:
Goto menu bar: SEQUENCE SETTING; click render control tab.
check on all boxes. set all to 100%. Codec=SAME AS SEQ
In the timeline, make sure all the tracks are on GREEN. (The bubble on the far end left)
Test some of the media files in iMovie or quicktime to see if they're corrupted in some way.
If there is no fix, you may need to re-install the app.

Animated drop down buttons not working in movie clip

Hi,
I am working on this site: (AS2)
http://www.steamandclean.com/Index_w_1.html
I have two types of drop down menu. One under Commercial and one under Technical
The buttons are movie clips. The drop downs are also movie clips that start in frame 2 and are triggered on rollover.
The child buttons are buttons living on the drop down movie clips. They are set to getURL
As you see they are not willing to neither link to any url or will they run their move clip animation. One is a button and one is a movie clip.
The left movie clip has a mask, but it makes no difference if I remove the mask . It also has a emboss filter and no difference is I take that away either.
All of it is in one flash movie right now, but I will be splitting it up in a master navigation movie and individual swf's soon.
Right now I have the main movie, then the button MC then the dropdown MC and in the drop down MC I have placed either a animated (button) MC or a button. So it nested in nested in.......
In both cases I scripting the child buttons like this:
on (rollOver) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
on (rollOut) {
gotoAndPlay(6);
on (release) {
getURL("http://steamandclean.com");
I have also tried to use
_parent.getURL and _root.getURL in stead of just get URL, but it does not work.
The drop down buttons seem to be buried. In the left side the whole drop down panel seems to act like a link?
What am I doing wrong?
Can you help?

Hi Ned
Thank you for your reply again.
I figured it out.
Your reply prompted me to have my main button on rollover to go to a frame number on the main time line and then move the content of the drop down movie clip to that frame.
The drop down panel now work and the child buttons animation now work as well. I just had to find a way to make the drop down panel disappear on rollout. Since I could not script the actual drop down panel I created three skinny invisible buttons and placed them on the right, left and button of the drop down panel. I scripted them to go back to frame 1 on both rollover and rollout. Done.
See the result there:

New iMovie ? can not fast forward or slow down clips ??

Can anyone help me?
When i try to fast forward or slow down a clip in iMovie i can see the option in "Modify" menu but it does not allow me to select the options

The clip must first be in a Project before you can speed it up or slow it down.
You can't modify a clip when it's just in an Event.

Slowing down clip has a strobing effect(choppy)? How can I smooth it out?

Hi guys,
When I slow down the clip, it plays back choppy or with a strobing effect.
How can I smooth it out in FCP5?
Anyone please,
Many thanks in advance,
Zia

Zia,
I would double check that the 'frame blending' option is selected. Otherwise, is the original footage interlaced or progressive? If you shot progressive and only have 29.97 frames (or less) to work with, you might want to try a plug-in. If the frames do not exist, it will probably be difficult to get a really smooth look.
Should you have shot at 30i (aka 60i), you can do some high tech stuff with a playback deck and your original tape- set the deck to progressive and the 60 fields will be tranformed into 60 frames (per second), hence giving a slow motion feel that rivals that of film. (this depends on your original media and what deck you can get your hands on)
I just did this for a music video and even the best DPs that I know thought it was film.

Can't Fast Forward/Slow down in iMovie

I have the new iMovie and i took a video on my laptop with the iSight camera and will not let me speed up. Please help!

I made my movie from still photos, but I hope It doesn't matter?
Yes, it does matter. The speed controls don't work on still images.
Instead you want to change the duration of the clip. Select the clip, click the Adjust Button then choose Clip Information (the little "i"). Enter the duration you wish you clip to last.
Changing the duration effective speeds up or slows down the clip with still images.
