What is the best way to make "credits" at the end of a movie?

Is there a way in iMovie (or iDVD) that I can create credits or just a black screen with words on it? I am sure there is a way, I am just not sure.
Thanks!

If you want it to be on a black background ( and use the 'over black' option) it will add onto the end of your movie.
If you want it to play over your movie, uncheck the 'over black' option box.

Paragon even has non-destriuctive conversion utility if you do want to change drive.
Hard to imagine using 3TB that isn't NTFS. Mac uses GPT for default partition type as well as HFS+

What is the best way to make a DVD from iMovie

What is the best way to make a DVD from iMovie?
I am using iMovie 06 (Naturally) with iDVD 08. I have always used;
iMovie 06, File > Share to iDVD 08. And got pretty good results.
Some say the best way is to quit iMovie 06, open iDVD and import the movie from the Media button.
I have tried both methods in the results look the same. I'm interested in getting the very best quality possible.

You likely have one of the most expensive media converter boxes on the market today.
But does it work well with most macs? (my guess is that it does). But more specifically can it "handshake" with an intel based mac? I personally haven't tried it.
But you may want to read this for yourself if you haven't already:

Assuming it works then the best format is .dv which this unit will support apparently.

I liek your idea of having multiple images in a grid. I think
that would be the best bet as you mentioned. Having one big picture
would be hard to distinguish the sub-areas with mouse coordinates.
I think checking the coordinates for the mouse would be very
tedious because I would have to check for the left boundary, the
right, top, and bottom for each sub-area!
What do you mean by using button components and reskinning.
Is this simply using buttons and changing the way they look? I'm
just trying to save time and memory, because if I had a 10 by 10
grid, thats a hundred buttons. Wouldn't that slow down the machine
alot? And for that matter wouldn't having a grid of 10 by 10 images
also by the same deal?
Thanks for the input, I'm just trying to find the most
efficient way to do it.

What is the best way to make a clickable grid

What would be the best way to make a clickable area that can
differentiate between discrete parts of the area when clicked on.
In other words, instead a having multiple buttons in a row that the
user can click on, is there a way to have an area that has lines to
distinguish the different areas(buttons) but that acts as though
there were multiple consecutive buttons?
For example, if I wanted to graphically simulate the buttons
on a phone but without using buttons. Instead use some kind of grid
or area that is divided into multiple sub areas that can
distinguish the discrete positions (each button on the phone, or
sub-area).
Thank you,

What's the best way to create basic scrolling up end credits

What's the best way to create basic scrolling up end credits with FCE. I want create normal look after the film that has a gap between the working title and the name (center-aligned, two-column
scrolls)
In the FCE Manual there was a good way to to do it with an asterisk (*) between the the words, but problem occurs when I had an umlaut (ÄÖ) in the word. The asterisk becomes visible and as many umlauts in the working title so many letters missing from the beginning of the name. I'm from Finland and we have lots of umlauts. So is there any other way to do this with FCE.

You can use Title Crawl in Boris to do this. You set it up like a word processor with a right aligned tab, a gap and then a left aligned tab. Double click in the ruler to create a tab stop. Double click it again to change its alignment. You use the tab key to move between the stops. It's kind of hard to explain, but if you play with it, I think you'll get it.
There is also Boris documentation on the install disc which will explain it more fully.

What is the best way to make a program fit different monitor resoultions?

In our lab all our test stations have 1280x1024 resoultion monitors. In the "other lab" all the test station monitors are 1440x900 resoultion.
Now I am tasked with making my programs run on the test stations in the other lab. I have tried setting the options "maintain proportions of windows for different monitor resoultions" and "Scale all object on front panel as the windows resizes" and of course neither one of these options really does what I would expect it to do.

I resize the Front Panel when the program start to fit the monitor resolution. After that, I use the "SBE_Determine If Screen Resized.vi" from TomBrass (http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Resizing-controls-on-a-tab-control-within-a-pane/td-p/1520244 ). This vi is very useful if you don't want to monopolize the CPU with the "Panel Resize" event.
I don't like this function for a couple reasons. First for the example you don't need any custom code to handle the window resizing, just use a couple splitters. Even if you did need to handle the resize, you only resize after the mouse is up after the resize which is not how normal Windows programs work they resize as the mouse moves. So I modified the VI to resize objects as you resize the window. Then because doing this can generate 100 events very quickly, I use a boolean in a shift register to make sure that we only handle the resize event if there is no new resize events after 0ms. This essentially makes a lossy queue and handles the last resize event.

What is the best way to make drawings an notes during class (on my iPad), which I can add to my (digital) handout later on?!

Hello BDAqua, thanx for the suggestions. Before I saw this reply I tried to first quit the finder and then to relaunch the Finder but that resulted was a blank gray screen.
In the end I ended up having to power down the iMac.
Fortunately the RAID array that was "active" seems to be fine and also has a firewire 800 connection so I can use it_ just not with thunderbolt until this issue is solved.
I'm going to check in the Applications>Utilities>system log to see if any clues are evident_ thank you for the suggestion.
PS: Nothing of note was obvious as a root cause in the Activity Monitor though.
hmmm....I was told that the Helios and seritek card were compatable and that the Helios didn't require any drivers..it will be a drag if there isn't an easy fix for this since this new PCIe card from seritek is the first to offer port multiplier compatibility for eSATA to thunderbolt...since they are both new I'm hoping that an OS upgrade will be the fix (presently7.2)...we shall see.

What is the best way to make certain cost centers as REQUIRING an internal

Hello,
What is the best way to make certain cost centers as REQUIRING an internal order (when entering invoices in the accounts payable module u2013 transaction code FB60). At the present, if a cost center requires an internal order, and the employee who is is entering the invoice in FB60 forgets to include the Internal Order, the invoice is incorrectly costed.
Regards,
Saeed

Hai !!!
The below method can solve your problem
1.Create Internal order for each cost center from transaction code KO01 - Create and enter the cost center under Requesting CCtr
2. Enter internal order or costcenter / while user post the transaction
Example Fb60

What is the best way to make PSD into HTML for emails

What is the best way to make PSDs into HTML for emails? Will the new feature in Dreamweaver work for emails as well? I am using Cheetah mail, but I need to be able to turn PSDs into HTML so I can use it in Cheetah mail. I have a general idea of how to do this, but I'm stumped about where to begin.

Use PShop for images only. Use DW to create your tables and inline CSS styles.
Many e-mail clients do not show images for security reasons. So graphics heavy e-mails are not an optimal way to communicate with your mailing list.

What is the best way to make skin uniform (not necessarily blurring it!)

Hi,
I have some photographs where the skin of the model's leg is not of uniform brighteness. Without blurring it, I have tried the clone stamp but it is very difficult to not introduce further variations in brightness.
What is the best way to make skin uniform in brightness (actually, the same color!)?
Thanks,
Juan Dent

I know EXACTLY what you mean. I was doing something exactly on those lines just yesterday.
It's not trivial, but it's doable.
For hard "spots", you can try the Spot Healing Brush first.
But here's a neat trick I sometimes use that can nicely increase the overall smoothness:
1. Select just the skin area.
2. Contract the selection a bit and feather the edge, just to make sure you don't mess up the edges.
3. Filter - Noise - Median, and adjust the radius to be fairly large. Watch the image to see the smoothness level.
4. Edit - Fade and knock back the effect, so that it's not perfect, but makes a subtle improvement.
Then, for gentle darkening lightening, try the Burn and Dodge Tools, set to a low Exposure level (and possibly with Airbrush Mode on). Work gently.
Cloning with low opacity can sometime help as well.

What's the best way to make a bootable, incremental backup of Boot Camp?

I'm curious as to what's the best way to make a bootable and incremental backup of Boot Camp, similar to Time Machine? I'd essentially like it to replace System Restore as well, because that's currently not working for me (System Restore backups get deleted every time I restart).

System Restore gets backed up to what and where?
You need system image one way or another, and you want data and file backup.
Windows 8 takes File History feature is similar to TimeMachine but not for system.
Take a look at Paragon Hard Disk Manager 12 Suite, has Boot Camp support.

Best, Yet Quick, Way to Make Credits?

I've got all of the credits typed up for a play that I shot and my deadline is coming up soon. What's the best and quickest way to make credits? Making them in Final Cut has always resulted in a lot of flickering for me and LiveType doesn't give me that professional credit look. Is there another app out there that can do a decent job in a short amount of time or is there something I'm missing in Final Cut or LiveType? Thanks.

Use Photoshop. Start with one of the video templates that fits the pixel dimensions of your FCP Sequence. Extend the PSD canvas size vertically -doubling or tripling its height to make space for all your elements. Continue to extend downwards as and when needed.
When everything is in position, turn off the background, use Merge Visible to send your text and logos to one layer, export as TIFF with transparency enabled.
Bring that into FCP and use the Motion parameters to move it up the screen with just a start and end keyframe.

What is best way to make disk backup of CS5 downloaded installation?

Hi,
We purchased the downloadable version of the CS5 Production Premium installer rather than waiting 2 weeks to receive it in box form.
What do you suggest is the best way to make a backup of the downloaded installers, which total about 13.8 gigs? I was thinking of putting the main one on a dual layer DVD-R but the biggest file is 9.23 gb's, nearly a gig over the data limit for dual layer disks. Is it possible to use Toast to split a disk image over multiple files or use Apple Disk Utility to compress the .dmg even further to fit? Or perhaps is the easiest way to just copy it over to a USB thumb drive?
I know Adobe allows you to re-download the software whenever needed, but it would be more handy for us to have a backup here rather than wait for another really long download...
Suggestions?
Thanks!

You can buy a set of backup disks from Adobe for a nominal fee. You might want to give them a call and ask about it.
Otherwise, just back it all up to an external drive.
