Video Editing

To import a Photoshop layer into Premiere Pro, first save your Photoshop file (.PSD) with the layers you want to import. In Premiere Pro, go to the Media Browser, navigate to your PSD file, and right-click it. Select "Import," and then choose whether to import the file as a sequence or individual layers. This allows you to manipulate each layer separately in your video project.

To import GoPro videos into Final Cut Pro, first connect your GoPro to your computer via USB or insert the SD card into a card reader. Open Final Cut Pro, and select "File" > "Import" > "Media." Navigate to the location of your GoPro videos, select the desired files, and click "Import Selected" to bring them into your project library. You can then drag them into your timeline for editing.

To lighten videos in iMovie, select the clip you want to adjust in the timeline. Then, click on the "Color Correction" button in the toolbar (it looks like a palette). Use the brightness slider to increase the brightness of the video. You can also adjust other settings like contrast and saturation to enhance the overall look.

AVI files offer high quality and less compression, making them suitable for video editing, but they tend to have larger file sizes, which can be cumbersome for storage and streaming. WMV and FLV formats are more compressed, resulting in smaller file sizes that are better for online streaming and playback but may sacrifice some quality. MPEG provides a balance between quality and file size, making it a versatile option for various uses. Ultimately, the choice of format depends on the specific needs for quality, file size, and compatibility.

They have a system that is set up to know how the mouth moves with the letter. They put poibnts on the characters voice and they click on the letter needed to be said. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ That is one way of doing it. I heard on a YouTube video during the times of Looney Tunes, they voiced the characters first for accuracy as trying to do it the other way round ( animating the characters and then voicing it ) would be a lot harder to do. Sometimes, they would also try and act it out it a mirror, like say a word that they want the character to say, and then animate the character as they say it. There is actually a researched set of character mouth positions for each of the phonetics of the English vocabulary. These are pretty much accepted with all animators. For instance, the sound of a 'b' and the sound of an 'm' would actually have the same mouth position for the character, which looks like both lips are together. Usually, first they will record all of the voice overs. They will do the entire script in a soundbooth. They will actually have all of the characters and animation complete at this point except for the mouth and probably some facial expressions. Now, as they playback the recordings, they will animate the mouth according to the phonetics of each and every syllable. Some tweaking to the speed of the animation will synchronize it with the recordings. Sometimes, they do the voiceovers last. This gives the actor more to work with in terms of expression since they can see what is going on and match their words with the mouth of the character. Technically the softwares now a days are very helpful. There is one called papagayo. It records your voice and creates a *.dat file with it. Now you can use this in the animating software like anime studio to synchronise the voice with mouth animation by a single click !

cmd is command prompt. Just about all windows computers have this included. Its like a mini PC because it executes all the files you need, if you know how to use it.

you put in a windows xp CD and install it as you would any other operating system. For an old low powered laptop, the toshiba 4300 handles xp very well.

Providing the minimum specifications are met by the laptop, I.E you have an adequate amount of memory and hard drive space, you'll find that this very basic and poorly built machine will hold it's own against later notebooks.

If you have the latest version of PMB, select the video you want, then click on Manipulate. Then select Convert to WMV and save. After doing this you should be able to import the file into Windows Movie Maker.

Yes Final Cut Pro X is better than PowerDirector as the latter is more akin to iMovie for the Windows operating system.

Chuck Norris knows..... he knows everything

That's because the file is not compatible with Windows Movie Maker. Anime is flash-formatted and can't be used in Windows Movie Maker unless converted first.

the .mpg format or the cam-rip

A video usually consists of a video channel an an audio channel, if your intention is to "remove" the video channel and leave the audio channel (Example: converting a video into MP3), You should use a format conversion software. The best free format conversion software is Format Factory (see the related link)

One of it's many features is "All to MP3/WMA/AMR/OGG/AAC/WAV."

In other words, it can convert anything to audio.

I recommend using the "All to MP3" option for best results.

It depends on how seriously you want to edit. I'm using Windows Movie Maker, which is incredibly basic, but it does the job for me at the moment.

Some ways to reduce the size of AVI files is: 1. Reduce the resolution. 2. Reduce the frame rate. 3. Increase the key frame rate. 4. Change the compressor. However You may lose some quality when trying to reduce file size.

It's MPEG (Movin Pictures Expert Group) is a group formed by ISO. It maintains the standards for audio, video compression and transmission.

This methodology involves both encoding and decoding the audio or video files.

The standards consist of different parts such as MPEG 1, MPEG 2 and etc.

No. Not unless you have a video editing program that has a converter integrated into the program.

SWF file can contain either video/audio data or an animation that stores text, vector and raster graphics, and interactive content written in ActionScript.

If it's an animation file, you cannot complete the conversion. But if it's a video file, it's easy to convert SWF to AVI using VidCoder, Shutter Encoder, HD Video Converter Factory, Any Video Converter, etc.

Apple's Final Cut Pro video editing software is part of the Final Cut Studio suite. It costs $999 (£816) and is not legally available for free.

I always use wondershare video converter ultimate. It's powerful that can convert videos to any formats, such as AVI, WMV, MP4, MKV, FLV, 3GP, MPG--even convert video to 3D. You can try it!

The top 3 video edting software choices for the PC is Ulead Video Studio, Adobe Premiere Elements and Sony Vegas. These programs are not free, but you can download a free trial from their Web sites.
