This is the one-stop-shopping RU-vid channel for ANYTHING I need to learn about editing. Your tutorials are outstanding! (and I enjoy your sense of humor!) THANK YOU for all the help!!!
Maliek,maaaaan,everytime I wonder if u made a tutorial for something I want to use in my head,I come across another tutorial for something I was thinking about using 2 steps later.Fake camera movement just gave me DIABOLICAL CHILLS.😈😈😈😈 Thank you homie.
Still a novice with Powerdirector, I always start with Maliek's videos when I'm trying to do something new. They are so clearly done! This one one solved a (to me) frustrating issue of how to select only part of an image AND move where I needed it in a composite shot I've been planning.
Thanks for another tip Maliek. For me the zoom then pan method in power tools is a lot simpler/faster achieving the same results but it’s always good to know another way to skin the cat.
I've been using the slow-zoom effect for awhile now, but always thought the resizing part was awkward because the preview took up so much room in the preview window and I could never be certain how the changes would actually look. But now that you've clued me in on the TV Safe Zone button and the Zoom out button, it is soooooo much easier! Thanks man!! It's the little things, you know?!
PowerDirector University i am an avid fan at your channel. Because i am using power director17 but sad i dont have license. Thats why my video had a water marks
Thanks for the tip... I'll now have to re-edit some of my earlier videos with this technique to make them more interesting. Your help is always appreciated!
Thank you for your teachings. I'm trying to edit a stationary shot to create a fake handheld camera movement in PD16. Not a pan, but slight movement. 'Fake shake', if you will. I'll watch this video again to see if I can figure it out. Thank you again.
Tools pan and zoom is much more easier. The method he is showing here was before these added features came in. Alot functions have arrived in newer versions since power director 17 to cut down on manually having to do these things
Awesome. Would this approach be similar to make a tripod shot look hand held, jittery if you will. I’d think it would take too many key frames - unless there’s another way to do it ?
You could do it but it would need a lots of keyframes. You can also try applying the Beating effect and runing down the settings to see what you get. Worth a shot.
Thank you Maliek, I really appreciate you tutorials and style. Is there anyway to change the size of the TV Safe Zone? I am working with 4:3 Raw content to 16:9. Thanks.
Another well done tutorial. Thanks a lot. I am learning much from your videos, although I am using PD for many years already. Btw. how did you do that great titel sequence? Cheers.
Those are just MP4 files. I did not create them using PowerDirector. I created them with After Effects many years ago. Now I just import the mp4 clips to my project for editing in PD.
I just started watching you videos. Very cool and informative. I'm trying to do a video with a singer in the middle and the background singers on the same screen. Can cyberlink 365 do this? Thank u
You can slow the speed of slow motion by reducing the speed multiplier. If using keyframes to move items, you can slow down the speed of movement by moving the keyframes further apart.
This is great and very helpful Maliek ! An additional question...if I'm using Multicam Editing and swapping between several cameras, at the end of that process I'll end up with a single timeline video file, comprised of the several cameras video stream. Can I then use your 'camera movements' method, and go into that composite-camera timeline, and implement pans/zooms on each of the cameras ....or do I have to do panning/zooming on each individual camera's footage BEFORE Multicam Editing ? Or...do I have to 'produce' the Multicam Edited footage first, and then use your 'camera movements' on the various segments of the produced video ?
You can do the camera movements after. After the multi-cam process is complete the timeline should be multiple clips which you can apply effects or movement to.
@@ciprianofernandes1486 Yes. There's nothing you can do about that. That happens every time you zoom in on any program. Film with the highest resolution possible and the quality decrease is less noticeable when you zoom in.
Hector T Depends on the resolution of the video. If it’s 4K it probably won’t affect much. If it is 1080p and a low bit rate you may not want to zoom in as much. Look at the result and determine how much you can zoom in without losing quality.
Not sure what you mean. Do you have flicker? Do you have distortion? Those are things that you usually have to address when recording your footage. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ykIL-sT81xY.html
I have a video challenge that I need your help with. Using a GoPro camera with a wide angle lens I recorded a presentation at 4k 30 fps of a speaker in front of a group of people. I would like to zoom in on the speaker and mask out some of the audience. The speaker does move a little and I want to only show the speaker and the white board she is using giving the effect of using a telephoto zoom lens. From your YT library of FANTASTIC video demonstrates what videos should I watch to see MASKING, PIP and movement? I am using PowerDirector 365 v20.4. THANKS for helping me solve my video eding problem! David
I don't have a video that does all of those things at once. The video you commented on should assist with the movement and zoom. You can also watch this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-RmhSUnGKpZ0.html just don't use the highlight part. You can watch this video to mask. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EGwvJNfHZSU.html
@@PDU_Tutorials Sorry late getting back to you, working outside spring cleanup. More info on project: GoPro mounted on chest plate on my body. I have two movements to overcome- me and speaker. Used Crop & Zoom, Video Stablizer and Edge Enhancement tools to do the project. Looks great. Thanks again for all of your videos and help. David
I guess you can do this with pip/keyframes or with "crop and zoom" tool right? But apparently keyframes are better. After crop and zoom you can't edit anymore. The crop and zoom settings turn into garbage. Seems like a bug :( .
Do you have a video or any advice on how you can import video files on the android app from Microsoft OneDrive as I don't use Google Drive....I only have the mobile app of PowerDirextor
Hi. GREAT tutorial, thanks! I have one issue. When you are zooming in on the glass, when you first drag the video screen corner, only that part of the video screen moves. When i do it, the who video screen crops, i.e, the top right of the video screen moves too, like I'm cropping the whole video.I imagine it's something to do with freeform but i can't see where that setting is. Please help! Thanks!
@@PDU_Tutorials Hi. Sure, it's 6.11 mark. Notice when you drag the corner, it doesn't drag the other edges with it. When I do this part, all edges move. I hope this makes sense. Thanks, I love your tutorials, really helping me make better videos!
@@whatsnottohike If your cursor has not changed to a diagonal line when you place it over the node it will just drag the clip over. The cursor must be a diagonal line before you hold down your left mouse and move the corner. If it is, then I'm not sure why it isn't working.
@@PDU_Tutorials yep, I have the line but it doesn't just pull that corner of the video, as I drag it, then the top right expands too. Thanks for your super quick reply, I'll keep taking a look. Thanks again!
I keep trying this but when i wanna see the end product and select 'OK' , there is no OK button there to select... So i click 'Save As' and then i get a message saying 'You cannot save templates that contain video files'

My daughter asked me yesterday if I could make a Christmas promo video for her home-based jewelry business. I said... Wait for it... "Easy peasey lemon squeezy!" Already finished!!
Anybody willing to give a few tips: I want to insert an object into a frame and then have it move across the screen, left to right, over a three second period. Motion tracking doesn't do it. How do I make this happen without insert object over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over?
Add the picture of the frame to your timeline > left click the pic > Designer > PIP Designer > Go to Position > Add Keyframe > Move Frame into position > Move forward one frame > Move frame into position > Add Keyframe. Keep doing that every frame until you get to the end of the clip.
