Adjust a group of pics to fit the length of the audio

Adjust a group of pics to fit the length of the audio

The storyboard tool is great, as mentioned. Using markers is also a good tool for placing those pics exactly where you want them to appear in relationship to the music (perhaps on a particlar down-beat etc).

If you simply want to "stretch" (or shrink) all pics so that they evenly fill the timeline for the duration of your audio clip, here's what I would do...

- before using Automate to Timeline, select Edit > Preferences > General and Still Images
- at the bootom of that window, select a "duration" (which will apply to all pics)
- select Automate to Timeline
- if the group of pics is too long or too short, simply select and delete them all, change the duration as above and try again. After a few attempts, you should be able to "guess" it fairly close.

This may not be a "slick" way of doing it, but unfortunately I've never found a way of "stretching" all clips at once.
Hope this helps.....Rob
