How do you rotate a video clip?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you have Windows Movie Maker 2.6 (I think) or older, then upload your video and go to "video effects." When you scroll down, there are options like "rotate 90," "rotate 180," and "rotate 270."

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

To add a freeze frame still image to a movie in iMovie move the mouse pointer over the image, in the project section, you wish to freeze and right click (or press the Control key and click) and select Add Freeze Frame from the pop up menu. This will add a 4 second still clip into the movie. Double click on the new clip to show the inspector and you can change the Duration of the clip or add an effect to the clip. Moving the mouse over the new clip reveals a small blue options menu in the bottom left corner of the clip. From this you can select Cropping, Ken Burns and Rotation with which you can crop, rotate or scan across the still image - for example to zoom in on a persons face.

How to get a video from a video camera to iMovie?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

All I needed was a USB cable that will fit into the DV outlet on the camera. The camera came with a USB cable that fits into the outlet labeled TO PC, but this only works with PCs, not Macs, so I needed to buy a USB cable that fit into the outlet labeled DV. Then, it worked like a dream. I'm using a Panasonic Palmcorder miniDV Web Camera, Model No PV-DV2020D.

The Simplest Special Effects you can use are the ones built into iMovie.

For Example, you can apply an instant replay function, or a video effect such a negative to a clip.

To see other special effects that are more complicated like embedding a explosion into an iMovie Project, check out my Youtube iMovie Special Effects Playlist in the "related links" section below.

How do you convert a windows movie maker to Imovie?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You need to convert it to QT or mp4 format to use in iMovie. Download and install a free video converter onto your computer. Use the program to convert the (Finished/Published) Movie Maker file.

You may try the Tune4Mac Video Converter Free Version for Mac.

ADDED: You do not need to download a conversion tool, although it can obviously be done. If you would like to know, there is a handful of free online video converters, if you would not like to download one.

How can you share videos from imovie?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You can export your movie. Just go under share > export movie. Generally it will save as an .m4v file. Then you can just drag it into the designated upload area on YouTube. So I guess your still technically going under the share menu, but it's a little different. There's no other way TO share it without doing so with the "Share" drop-down menu.

How do you get imovie on windows?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You can't. iMovie is only available for the Mac and is not available for Windows XP or any other version of Windows. DVD Slideshow Builder is a good substitution.

How do you import GIMP photos into iMovie?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

From iMovie's Window menu select Event Library. This will show a pane that includes iPhoto Videos. The videos will need to be in a format that iMovie recognises - MPEG4 or DV file formats, and some .mov formats. Try MPEG Streamclip to convert between formats (See links below). If you want to import still images click on the camera icon, on the right hand side of the iMovie window, which will show your iPhoto library. Any desired items can be dragged into your movie.

Yes, you can. But not for free. You have to buy something first (thats what people say) and then you can download it so it will work. I'm stuck with windows movie maker. Most confusing stuff ever. I do NOT recommend WMM, please don't get it.

Best of luck with everything.

How do you upload a video on to YouTube?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Step 1: You must have a YouTube account or a Google account and you have to sign it with those credidentials. Then go to "Upload Video."

Step 2: Upload video files having one of these file extensions (.avi, .mpg, .mov, .mp4, etc) then write the name, description, and tags on the uploaded video files. Tags are what people will type to search your video, examples of these are (guns, explosions, birds, etc.)

Step 3: Wait for your video to be processed and uploaded. Upload duration would be about 5 to 10 minutes depending on the file size of the video you are uploading.

Additional Information: To view your video, go to your account and click on "My Videos."

How do you use pre keyed effects in imovie 09?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well, you need to get your pre-keyed image/video into your video bar (not the timeline), and then select it (it should be outlined with yellow). Drag the pre-keyed thing into the timeline, onto the other video, where you want it to appear. Then, let go of it, and a little menue should appear. Select "Picture in a picture". Then you should be able to manipulate it (with size and area), and that's how it's done.
