  • Mass change duration of still images

    Posted by Kris Long on November 1, 2008 at 6:47 am

    Hi,
    I’m good at photoshop and am trying to learn premiere. I have Premiere Pro CS3.
    After going to preferences, general, i changed Still image Default Duration to 9 frames
    This should sync perfectly with the beat of the sound track.
    I have added 518 images and got it just about right, however it would appear i’m about a frame out. Mathematically it should be every 8.7 frames.
    How do i mass adjust the duration of each image? bearing in mind some of the images I have changed the length slightly as i adjusted them with the chorus. So a mass time remapping would not work.
    What i would like to do is say select the first 100 images/clips and set them to 8 frames each then sync it again at the 101st image.

    Also there appears to be a synchronize function under Clip but i have no idea what that does (even after reading the help guide for it). Do i want synchronise?

    Unfortunately there is no way to do a global change to individual durations.

    Here is a better method of timing stills to music.

    Cheers
