  importing photos

  Posted by Jeff19 on January 15, 2007 at 8:52 pm

  NEW WITH THIS PROGRAM……Can’t see the total photo when importing into Pro 2.0. I do see most of the photo in the source view and a zoomed in view in the program view. Also how do I get the best resolution in the final video?

  Thanks………

  Think this through. You have a 720X480 frame, or if outside the USA, perhaps a 720X576 frame.

  My guess is that your picture from your still camera is much, much larger than that. So you need to use the Motion Effect’s Scale parameter to size it down to fit. You can automate this but the quality is not as good as using the motion effect.

  Premiere does not make it easy to do pan/scan on large (8 MP) still pics like Photoshop Elements, which would be an ideal situation, except Photoshop Elements exports only a highly compressed .wmv file.
  I automate the pics to the timeline, select one and scale it to 30%, then Copy that, select the rest of the pics and Paste Attributes. Only then can one see the bounding box to do pan/scan.

  Make sure “Default scale to frame size” (Preferences>General) is turned off prior to importing images or your pics will look like crap after doing pan/scan.
  If you do many picture projects ProShow Producer is the cats meow.
