Adding Theme to video clips

Adding Theme to video clipsI am new to Adobe Premier Elements 9. I am trying to add a theme (birthday) to my 7 clips. It won't let me as it keeps telling me that the clips do not total 6 min. yet I have tried to change the duration, I have ticked clips only etc. Nothing works. The only way it will do it if I allow repeats of clips. I do not want to go for that long with these clips. I also want to add some photos into it with the theme. I have ordered Steve Grisetti's book and hope that that will explain this. In the meantime, can someone help me?
Re: Adding Theme to video clipsWill it work if you fill the end with black video?
Re: Adding Theme to video clipsAnd thanks for supporting the book -- though I don't think it will provide the answer for this one.

Re: Adding Theme to video clips
Thank you for replying. My clip is only 1.8 sec long. I am only wanting to try the theme out to see how it would look, and then perhaps add some still shots, however I think it wants 6 min. and it wants to make it into a instant movie.
Re: Adding Theme to video clipsI'm not surprised that the program won't create a 2 second InstantMovie, Omadietje.
Since all you're doing is testing the process anyway, why not add some more random footage or still photos -- just as an experiment? HP Envy with 2.9/4.4 ghz i7-10700 and 16 gig of RAM running Windows 11 Pro
Re: Adding Theme to video clips
I shall try that thank you, but a question, are the themes only for instant movies? Can themes be applied to just movie clips before making an instant movie? Is there a way to adjust the time from 6 min to less time?
Re: Adding Theme to video clipsThere is a minimum time for themes. I don't know what it is. But you do need a minute or so at least of footage.
InstantMovies and themes are very similar. InstantMovies are created by gathering a bunch of clips in the Media panel after click the InstantMovie button. The program will then automatically put the finished InstantMovie on your timeline. Themes are applied to clips that are already on your timeline. You just select the clips on your timeline and select a theme from under the Theme tab. But the results are pretty much the same.
