ULEAD VIDEOSTUDIO USER GUIDE
Once a color clip has been inserted into the Library, you can drag it to the Timeline to put it
into your movie project. Color clips are great for beginning a movie. Place your opening
credits over the top of the color clip and then use a cross fade effect to create smooth transition
into your movie. See page 44 for more details.
Using video filters
Video filters are effects which you can apply to video clips in order to change their style or
appearance. For example, you can improve the color balance of a clip, or make the video look
like a painting. Filters are applied over each frame in a clip. By specifying the different start
and end values, you can control the intensity and speed of a filter as it moves from the first
frame to the last.
Titles set against solid backgrounds are often easier to see than if set against an image,
especially a moving one.
Inserting a video filter:
1
From the Library list, select Video Filter
folder.

later.) Available options depend on the
filter selected.
