Video effects
Clicking on the "Video effects" button
opens a selection of effect templates.
There is the "Old movie" effect, for
example, which turns your clip into a
movie from the 20s as well as various
movement effects which allow you to
simulate camera pans, "Zoom in" or
"Move left-right", for example.
Try out the different effects to get an
idea of what you can do with them.
Select an effect and click "Preview".
If you would like to use the effect,
use your mouse to drag it onto an
object.
Since the effects do not change the
original material, you can easily reset
any effect.
To do so, click "Reset".
Scene recognition
Select the object that you would like to apply scene recognition to, and then
open the menu entry "
Scene recognition
" in the "Effects" menu.
Scene recognition analyzes the movie according to scene changes, i.e. jumps
in brightness and color distribution on screen. Automatically created "Time
stamps" from digital video devices - (which indicate the time when the device
was turned on/off) - are also detected as scenes.
If you select "
Automatic scene recognition
" then all of the scene changes that
are detected will be used to create a new scene automatically. If you select
"
Manual scene recognition
", then you may decide according to what you see
for each individual scene.
This option is helpful, for example, if a camera flash was captured in the
source footage. The flash from the camera would cause a sudden brightness
modification even though there was no actual scene change.
