If it’s a perfect film, it’s impossible to not have sound.
Click ‘Insert Sound’ on your left menu, then click ‘Find File’ to select a sound file.
Remind yourself that Intelli-studio only supports either ‘mp3’ or ‘wma’ sound files.
Then you can see the file that you selected. Click ‘Apply’.
Selected file appears on sound track and goes into the ‘Timeline Mode’ automatically.
Move mouse cursor on the end of the file to adjust length of the sound. Mouse cursor is going to change into the arrow figure. Click and drag the file to adjust the length.
You can control the place when you click and drag the middle part of the file.
You can control the place when you click and drag the middle part of the file.
Ok. Now you’ve made plausible movie like this. Don’t forget to save it!
This is the ‘Save’ button.
You can select the saving form from those three methods.
Let’s take a look from the top.
1. Save As General Movie Format
You can save as ‘mp4’, ‘wmv’, or the format for iPod so you can also watch from general PC.
When the window pops up, select ‘File Type’, ‘Resolution’, and ‘Quality’ and click ‘Convert’. Then you are done with producing movie. (If you want resolution of HD level, select 1920X1080 or 1280X720.)
2. Save As Camcorder Format
This is the saving method that you can watch this movie in other Samsung camcorders too.
Choose the camcorder type that you want and click ‘Convert’.
3. Save As Project File
‘Project File’ means the file that still has some process to do. If you have the movie that you want to edit it later, save as this format then you can edit it again whenever you want.
Select folder that you want to save, and it’s done.
Wow. I feel like now I can make interesting movies easily with Intelli-studio.
Well, it’s done now for movie but this is not the end.
Next time, we’ll find out how to edit photo files.
One of the most famous scenes in Snow White is the conversion between the queen and the mirror.
“Mirror, mirror on the wall, who in the land is fairest of all?” asks the queen.
True, a talking mirror is quite interesting. But a question asking whether I have white hair at the back should have sufficed.
Unfortunately, the answer that the mirror gives – not a bit interested in the diversity of beauty (and with no sense) – makes the queen explode in anger.
So, this is how tragedy started in the PC-less era. I won’t repeat how the rest of the story goes.
Then, how about today?
The queens… or the ladies of the modern world will rephrase the question.
“Monitor, monitor on the desk, who in the land is the fairest of all?”
What is different with these monitors is that they will never betray their owner, even if that means lying.
“It’s you!” they will shout - thanks a lot.
One thing though. The answer doesn’t come for free. You need a littler labor.
Here is the user’s guide to the mirror of the modern day.
First, you need to take a photo. Take many, making the most beautiful face.
1. A fair skin is a must!
Oooops. Not that critical, but I see a spot.
Now that I’ve spotted it, I can’t neglect it.
Select the Spot Healing Brush Tool.
If you use a brush that is too large for the spot, unwanted colors can interfere. So, make sure to adjust the size of the brush and paint over the area you want to correct.
See how the spot disappeared? You can repeat this process to erase not only spots but also wrinkles and acne.
2. Highlight!
Not a must but sometimes necessary. Here, let’s try highlighting the eyes.
Let’s try using the Color Replacement Tool.
This tool helps to change the color while preserving the texture and shape of the object.
Select the color of the eyes you want to replace in the color slide…
And carefully color it over the iris.
Is this too blue? Well, I’ll just leave it as it is for the moment as it clearly shows the difference.
Don’t like the color of your lips? Try this.. but not with blue, though.
3. The brighter the screen, the better!
Yes, that’s true. Bright screens actually help to cover up ugly spots as unpleasant as the dark screen. Do I need to cover up the whole photo, then? Is this a truth as inconvenient as global warming?
Let’s move to Layer. Drag the layer that you seen on the screen and place it here.
This will create another layer. Like this.
Did you ever wonder what this area named Normal actually meant? Let’s click on it.
This indicates the layer blend mode and you can change various features of the layer.
Let’s select screen mode.
You can see that the screen has brightened up substantially.
Now, let’s adjust the opacity value, which indicates the level of transparency.
Then, do into Filter->Blur->Gaussian Blur.
A window will pop up where you can adjust the value looking at preview. Blur literally helps to make the screen blurry. If you blur the screen that you’ve just brightened up, the screen will appear more colorful.
Now.. are you done? Let’s ask the question again.
“Monitor, monitor on the desk, who in the land is the fairest of all?”
If you find this process to cumbersome, then try using the Beauty shot mode of Samsung ST550(TL225). You will always get results like the one above regardless of the photographer.
As soon as you take your finger off the camera shutter, you can ask,
“Camera, camera on the desk, who in the land is the fairest of all?”
We’ve learned how to install ‘Intelli-studio’ last time. This time, let’s set the program for yourself.
Second story of Tommy and Tiky.
‘Intelli-studio’ took out complicated functions for beginners but it’s better to know some ‘Setting’ functions to use this program more effectively. I’ll tell you some important things.
Let’s do some ‘Setting’ by clicking ‘Menu’ on the left top.
First, you can choose either black or white color for ‘Skin Theme Setting’ on very top.
Now, ‘Thumbnail info. View Setting’.
Basically, ‘File Name + Time’ is for movie. It’s ‘File Name’ for photo, however, let’s see what happen when we change it to ‘File Name + Resolution’.
Now you can see the resolution of file beside of file name.
Oh, I see.
Under the ‘Thumbnail Setting’, it’s ‘New File Upload Notification Setting’.
That’s for the notification of new file uploading when camcorder and PC is connected to each other, but you can check off if you don’t like message pops up every single time.
When you set ‘Folder Path View Setting’ to ‘Show the entire path’, you can see this file is located in which folder easily.
Next section is ‘Update Intelli-studio’ and it is the setting for letting you know automatically when ‘Intelli-studio’ is updated.
It’s good for quick update.
Ok.
And you can always click ‘Help’ when you have something that you don’t know.
When you click ‘Information’, you’ll know the present version of this program.
Well, let’s wrap up for ‘Setting’. Now you can set up the program for your own convenience. However, set up ‘Update Notification Setting’ to ‘Enable’ for better update.
Alright.
Good! Ok, that’s it for today.
Let’s learn about ‘Library’ menu next time.
In remembrance of the king of pop, Michael Jackon.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be.
Rest in Piece. 1958 - 2009
