• First Pro CS6-still images that grainy when the effects of movement applied

  I made a video in Premiere Pro CS6. The video, in part, still use images that I pan or zoom in on a Ken Burns effect. Although still images look good after having been imported, when the effects of movement are applied, they become suddenly very grainy and low quality.

  The images have been made - the bar above them is yellow - and I tried of many workarounds, including convert images in .psd and using the frame Hold.

  What should I do to fix this?

• Movement of rain of movement in a still image, how to apply?

  Dear friends of Adobe,

  I am doing a project right now for one of my assignments in photograph, and one of the things I want to achieve is a rain of movement in a still image. Now, please bare in mind that this isn't a blur effect, or something similar, I'm at the end, what I want to achieve will literally rain as in a video, but then adapted into a fixed image. You know, or is there someone who might know how to do it?

  Thank you and best regards,

  Dragan

  My mistake, I thought you wanted to find a way for the rain. For the movement, you can use the same procedure with brushes on layers, and then you could get this effect easily with the motion of Photoshop with less than 8 frames Panel. You can then export it as an animated gif.

• Can still images be transferred throughout the frame in Premier Pro?

  Using Premier Pro, a still image as a photograph possible to enter the frame starting at the bottom and moving constantly upward until it leaves the frame up? If so, can there be a color or a texture acting as the 'context' of the image?

  You can use Motion with keyframes to move your always on the screen in the process of V2. You could add another still or create a matte, color, etc. to be your background in the process of V1.

• Why the effects do not work on still images.

  Why some effects do not work on still images?

  As the active camera or earthquake?

  It seems to me that to have an earthquake or the busy camera, a series of images will have to be moved by the software.  In other words, you need a video clip with separate images.  A still is an image.

  You might be able to get around that.  Place your image in a dedicated project, a video share/export.  There will be many executives you need.  Report a project like the video rather than as a still.  Then you should be able to apply your chosen effects.

  I did not had time to try it, but I think it should work.

• ?? Still image default duration - can't change it?

  In the first 13 items:

  
  

  If I open a new project I can go to preferences and change the default duration of still images and when new is added to the timeline that they correspond to the value that I set.

  
  

  But I have an existing project, when I go to preferences and change the default fixed images for her, remains in about 6 seconds, ignores any changes I've made.

  The preference of Edit Menu/preferences/general for still Image default duration applies only to images imported once the adjustment has been made.

  To change still Image duration once again on the timeline, click with the right button on the timeline again, select Time Stretch and always set the time again for that in the duration field in the Time Stretch dialog box. You can do this for a single file or several files at once. For more than one at a time, select (all at the same time) stills involved, click anywhere in the selection, select Time Stretch and set the time yet in the Time Stretch dialog box which will apply to the entire selection.

  To select several files at once

• How to set levels of several images at the same time?

  CS6 user, I scanned recently a few pages of an old black-and-white, Comics who, thanks to the passage of time, are now more black and beige.

  I know how to adjust the levels using the eyedropper tool, but is there a way to apply the same effect to multiple pictures in one go (i.e. adjust the levels of an image, and then apply the same effect to others as a batch of files), rather than by pressing ctrl + alt + l and save each image individually?

  Thank you

  Save the changes in the form of Action and run as a batch process using Image Processor (under the file menu)

• Title and still Image issues

  Running Adobe first CC caravan 8.1

  Windows 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1 with all latest updates

  I can import a still image in Premiere Pro, but it appears just in black in the source monitor.

  I can create a title, but once again, it shows only upward in black in the source monitor.

  If I try to drag a still image or a title to the timeline, the hand slide displays a circle with a line through it, indicating that it is not allowed.

  If I look at the speed/duration of the still image, it shows as 00:00:00:00.  Can I change the duration, but the OK button is gray and will not allow the change to be applied.

  If I look at the speed/time of a title, it shows that 00:00:00:00, but in the project Panel, it shows as 11:59:16:20.

  These features have worked before, and now they have stopped working.

  Any help to solve these problems would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Figured out, need to change the duration of 00:00:00:00.

• How track motion a still image?

  Hello.

  I have a .jpg image ('FLY BODY', see printscreen below) who is busy buying using puppet tool only.

  I want to track the movement of the layer, but all the menu in the Tracker window buttons are greyed out (and all the Options in the motion Source menu)

  How can I track the movement of a still image then?

  

  This is because the layer window looks like only inherent motion of the layer and not all the effects that are applied. You will need to you need to precompose again (making sure to move all attributes) If you want motion follow him.

  Again, I think that the motion tracking is a bad idea. It leaves you no room for manoeuvre. If client/Director/you makes a change, you will have to redo all your motion tracking. Whereas if you simply use phrases and precomping, you do not experience Cook any part of your animation.

• Rotating still images in a video-help please!

  Hello, I have the Adobe Premiere Elements 10 mounting system, and I am currently working in a summer project. One of the things I want to do is to create a video from still images, but I'm having a problem, because the images I chose and increased their time line look too choppy, but I want more flow-ey look. What would be the speed or duration of each image? There are other effects that can help to achieve my photo video yet? Also, I'm ready to other suggestions, others have to make a smooth surface, still video image. Thank you!

  I wasn't sure of my schedule for later this evening, so I'll post an example scenario, assuming that you have first Elements 10 Windows 7 64 bit.

  1. place your 10 each to 3680 x 2760 pixels 4:3 pictures in the order of the sequences in a folder on the desktop. No need to resize them in advance ONLY if your Windows 7 is 64 bit and not 32 bit and your RAM installed is greater than 4 GB.

  2. open the first items 10 and set the project preset for

  NTSC

  DIGITAL SLR

  1080 p

  DSLR 1080 p 30 @ 29.97

  3. go to edit Menu/preferences/general and remove the check mark next to the option "default scale to frame size".

  4. then, use Get-Media/files and folder to your desktop folder in the field of the Organization/media. Then drag the whole folder not open early in the editing video track 1. When you do, your 10 photos will be on the Timeline in the order that you placed in the folder.

  5. click on Photo 1 to select. Then go to Properties Palette/Motion expanded Panel and the Scale property. Set the scale to 52.6%.

  6. go back to the Timeline and click 1 Photo to select it. In the Edition Menu, select copy. The other 9 pictures (all at the same time), and then select right

  Click anywhere in the selection, select and click Paste attributes.

  7. to give a time-lapse effect on your 10 photos, you will reduce the duration of each photo. You don't want to deal in seconds, rather the frames (frames 1 to 5 0.033 to 0.165 seconds in a 30 frames per second is set up).

  a. first we look at the effect with the length of 5 frames photo... Select all photos of 10 all at once... right click anywhere in the selection, and then select Timeline Stretch. In the Time Stretch dialog box, change duration of 00;... 00; 05; 00 (5 seconds) to 00. 00; 00; 05 (equivalent to 0,165 seconds 5 frames) Note the effect Timelapse which is performed after you restore the timeline content by pressing the Enter key to get the best possible overview of the chronology of the contents read in edit box monitor.

  b. If you are not satisfied with 'a', the repetition, but this time change the duration to 00. 00; 00 03 (3 images equivalent to 0.150 seconds)... Note the Timelapse

  effect that is performed after restore you the timeline by pressing the Enter key to get the best possible overview.

  c. If you are not satisfied with the 'b', then repeat, but this change of time in the lowest possible value 00. 00; 00; 01 (1 Executive equivalent to 0,033 seconds)... Note the effect of Timelapse obtained after restore you the timeline by pressing the key ot GET Enter the best possible overview.

  See what it looks like. For now, I would not bother with transitions. More than one placement of transition both can be done by selecting all the photos using Timeline Menu/Apply default Transition. But, with these pictures of short duration, I would need to think about changing the default transition duration.

  And I don't see in pans and zooms with short duration that are used.

  Here are some Timelapse basic ideas in Premiere Elements.

  Notes: To select more than one clip at a time, you can hold the SHIFT key and click each photo. Or, you can use the trick of mouse cursor to draw a rectangle around the photos to select them.

  Please let us know if this needs to be clarified.

• How to work with still Images in first items 10

  I am faced with still images in my titles for my video project and would be really grateful for the help. I did a lot of searching on Google on this and searched this forum, but can't seem to find the answer I need, maybe not to seek the right questions or all just "don't get it".  Not even PE Adobe tips or Adobe TV covers, although it seems important to know. I don't understand how PE10 will manage the resolution of graphics from Photoshop or any fixed image. Maybe this topic will also contribute to other institutions.

  I'm working on a video project for my work, editing an old training video. New title graphics created in Photoshop, inserted images of title integrated with video clips, then exported the video segments in the form of MPEG files.  I burned the entire video on DVD.

  When the final DVD play on a computer or a television screen, the images of photo in the titles are unclear, although they were clearly 300 dpi images. (I know dpi is not serious in the video). The text of the title is also a little fuzzy and the text of the title which has applied animation to it is still more unclear. Yet, old video clips MPEG look good - it's just my title images and texts that have (annoying) look bad.

  So I need to know how to improve the quality of the images/graphics even a video?

  Project settings:

  -Hard drive, Standard 48 kHz

  -Editing mode: DV NTSC

  -Frame: 720 x 480 (0.9091)

  -Frame rate: 29.97 FPS

  -with "optimize images" box checked

  Using these settings because I work with an old training video CD MPEG files.

  Exporting files: MPEG, NTSC DVD Standard

  I export as MPEG video clips because they will be burned on a CD or a DVD for distribution to our management offices.

  Job details:

  In Photoshop, I still created graphic images for each title of format 720 x 480 with high resolution photos and logo of the company (300 dpi) and save as a bitmap for import into PE10.  In the timeline panel, I insert the fixed image on the track "Vidéo 1", and then in the video track 2 create a top for the text title (some animated, some still). Sometimes I have the battery 2 or tracks of three titles with separate video text on an image fixed title. Yes, there is a red line on the top in the timeline because I do not still images.

  Issues related to the:

  • What is the best resolution for images imported into PE10 of Photoshop?

  • Do I create title graphics/images to 720 x 480 or higher like 1920 x 1080 report so it will show better seen on a computer or a TV?

  • Do I need to render each image title in the timeline panel so that it displays finally better in MPEG?

  • Is it better to create a title and then insert the image in the title so that they are integrated, rather than layers on separate video tracks?

  I would be very happy to help.

  When the final DVD play on a computer or a television screen, the images of photo in the titles are unclear, although they were clearly 300 dpi images. (I know dpi is not serious in the video). The text of the title is also a little fuzzy and the text of the title which has applied animation to it is still more unclear. Yet, old video clips MPEG look good - it's just my title images and texts that have (annoying) look bad.

  Please keep in mind that DVD-video has been designed for CRT TVs, and was a major step upward to a VHS tape. However, when displayed on a HD or HD TV computer monitor *, it of always ONLY 720 x 480, with is about 1/4 of the resolution 1920 x 1080, which is what we're used to seeing on display devices. It is, but only 25% of the quality. He can never look as good as HD material.

  Good luck and if I missed something, please point out to me.

  Hunt

  * With the advent of BD players and players of DVD up-rezzing, things HAVE improved, watching a video DVD on an HDTV. New players have up-rezzing in chips, which do a very good job of "improving" the quality of the material considered. However, even with these amazing chips, DVD-video is NEVER as good as a full-HD source. In addition, the computers do not have these chips up-rezzing, so when contemplating a video DVD on a high-resolution computer monitor, it will still look pretty bad. There are a couple of new DVD players software, that allow to improve the quality of DVD-Video, played on a high-resolution computer monitor, and some look quite promising. I guess we'll see some more development in the region of DVD-video, especially since BD is not the seller basically promised a lot. Even in 3D is not helping BD fulfilling its promises.

• several imported still images (how to change "timing" AND make multiple transitions)

  I imported into project still many pictures resources.  The default for each time seems to be 5.1 seconds.  If I drag them in the timeline, select them all and change the duration, there are gaps between the images... How can I scrunch together easily, OR how change the default duration before I drag them in the timeline?

  Second... If I have all my photos on a timeline can I set the effect of transition on more than two at a time?  I can't put the transition for all of them at once (a different query)

  Thank you, - bill

  I imported into project still many pictures resources.  The default for each time seems to be 5.1 seconds.  If I drag them in the timeline, select them all and change the duration, there are gaps between the images... How can I scrunch together easily, OR how change the default duration before I drag them in the timeline?

  When you have selected your still and used the command of speed/duration, do not forget to check the option 'Edit Ripple, Shifting trailing Clips' in Control Panel. That will remove any empty what space between clips that would be otherwise generated to reduce the duration of your sequences.

  Second... If I have all my photos on a timeline can I set the effect of transition on more than two at a time?  I can't put the transition for all of them at once (a different query)

  Yes, although there are two preliminary steps. First of all, in the effect controls panel, click the button of the flyout (this stack of pancakes with the little downward arrow) or go in Edition > Preferences > general and select the default Transition duration option and change to the desired option. Secondly, in the effect controls panel, select the transition you want and right click and select "Set selected as Default Transition".

  Now, select your clips/still images in the timeline panel and go to the sequence > apply Transitions to the selection by default; the passage you have just configured will apply to all of your clips. Note that, by default, this will add audio transitions as well, if you use combined video/audio clips (probably not a problem in your case that you use still images), but you can hold down the ALT key to select just the video or only the portions audio your clips, if you want only a single transition type or the other. You can also temporarily block tracks where you don't want transitions before using the command.

  Also, given that you work with still images, you don't have to worry about the handles; If you import a still in the first, even if it lasts only a single image, you have an indefinite/infinite amount of images to use for editing and transition. Audio/video clips are a different story, of course...

• Difference between CS3 and CS4 when you place images, unguarded percentage

  There is something of a difference between CS3 and CS4 when you place images. The images I'm dealing with right now were vector images, but it could apply to all sorts of images.

  When you replace an existing image, the behavior of CS4 is to leave the image full frame. In CS3, the percentage was set at 100% as default (% see you when selecting the image, not the container).

  Also when you replace an impage in CS4, the 'internal' picture frame is maintained, while in the C3, the percentage was limited.

  Y at - it sort of investment preferences / settings leave CS4 same wat like CS3 did, when you place an image?

  -Andreas

  If reliinking keeps the scale or dimensions is now a part of preference in CS4, if that helps.

  You can play with this setting and do a few manual rebinding to see if something is appropriate. I'm not a script, but I think you can reset this preference as part of a script.

• DVD still image capture

  I want create snapshots of a DVD and save in JPG format or another file format.  I tried the command + shift + 3 and a utility called SnapNDrag.  I get a gray screen, if the DVD is paused or read.  I guess this is a sort of copyright protection.  I'm not ripped off the someone work, this is a DVD made by a friend of home movies.

  If I can't do this with the DVD player, can I somehow extract the contents into a movie file?  I think I might then use iMovie to capture still images, no?

  Need to rip the DVD to get the video files. Handbrake is a popular application to do this. It of a free download and works for unprotected DVDs.
