Uploading

Whether you use a Mac or a Windows machine, the process for uploading your photos, video and music is pretty much the same:

We recommend that you make a new folder on your desktop. This is where you can copy all the photo, video and music files that you want to upload. It's a lot easier to put everything in one place so they're easy to find. Maybe name it "tracking shot upload" or whatever name you might want to use for your movie. You'll be uploading your photos and your music at the same time, so just toss it all in there.

• For your photos, we currently support JPEG, PNG and GIF file types.
• For your video clips, we currently suport M4V, MP4, MPG, MOV, AVI, WMV, FLV files. However, some of those file types can use codecs that we don't support yet... but we've covered the most common ones, just beware of that before uploading a large clip (>10MB is large). You must edit your clips before uploading as we don't offer any video editing tools on the site. We recommend that your clips not exceed 1 minute in length for the best results.
• For your music we currently support MP3 and WAV audio files. You can check the format of a file by highlighting it and then COMMAND-I (Mac) or ALT-ENTER (Windows). Everything else will have to be converted, a process that will be described in a later post.

Remember that the larger your files, the longer the upload will take! Keep this in mind especially with your video clips. We do have a size limit of 50MB per file as well.

Your photos could be in a few different places on your computer. The default location on a Mac is a folder called Pictures in your home directory. The default location on a Windows machine is called My Pictures. You will want to copy the image files to the folder that you made on the desktop as you find them. Make sure you're not moving the files because you don't want to misplace anything important. To copy a file on a Mac, hold the OPTION key down while dragging and you'll see a plus sign in a green bubble appear under your cursor arrow, so that when you drop it in the folder on the desktop the original is left untouched. On a Windows machine, you'll want to hold down the CTRL key while you drag so that a plus sign in a box appears on the file, that way when you drop the file in your target folder a new copy of the file is created.

Your music should be in iTunes whether you're on a Mac or a PC. I'm only half-kidding... The nice thing about using iTunes is that you can just drag and drop a song from any playlist into the folder that you created on your desktop and it will make a copy there. But remember that we're only supporting MP3 and WAV audio files right now. Most importantly, this means we cannot use your songs purchased from the iTunes music store because they are stored in a proprietary format. This is unfortunate, but Apple and the record companies have created this restriction. If you find this frustrating, we recommend that you take a look at the website of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and consider supporting their efforts to restore rights to the media consumer. However, if you're willing to spend some time and use up a CDR, you can burn an audio CD from your purchased iTunes music and then rip it back into iTunes as MP3 files.

If you don't use iTunes, then perhaps your music files might live in the Music (Mac) or My Music (Windows) folders. Find the song you want and copy it to the folder you made on the desktop. If you're still rocking it 90's style with CDs, we respect that, but you'll have to rip some songs using iTunes. We'll walk you through that in a later article.

Is everything you want in the folder that you created on the desktop now? Then you're ready to upload. At the tracking shot site, login or choose free trial (note that movies created in a free trial account will not be saved). On the left, under Photos & Music, click the upload button. A dialogue window will appear that will let you find your folder of photos and music. Click on Desktop, then open the folder you made. Inside that folder will be the photos and music that you copied there. Now you want to select all of files. To do that quickly, click once on the first file in the list to highlight it, then hold down the shift key, scroll to the last file and click it once. All the files in that folder should now be highlighted. Then, on a Mac you'll click Select while on Windows you'll click Open. After you do that a window should appear in your browser that shows the progress as each file is uploaded to tracking shot. Isn't this amazing? Your movie will be automatically generated as the photos are uploaded. Enjoy the payoff from your hard work!

i can't get it to upload? i moved photos from iphoto (mac) to a folder and a song from itunes. they move easily - but around ten files (including mp3) say "the types of selected files are unknown - skip them?" so if i do skip them the software picks up only the next jpeg (3% of download) and says downloading but nothing else ever happens. they are all jpegs .. the music is mp3. i removed the music from the folder and the same thing happens.

how do i fix this?

Lâinteret du forum est precisement de susciter un debat parmi les citoyens pour que le budget et les choix quâil sous-tend soient places au c?ur du debat public. Un budget, ce sont des choix. Des choix supposent des priorites.
