points that make the scene start and stop when
you choose.
Clicking on " Trim " calls up the corresponding
Trim screen. In the background you see the first
frame of your video. The trim panel is in the
foreground and covers one third of the picture.
The name of the scene appears in the upper
line, and next to that its length is displayed. For
this tutorial a time between 3 and 10 seconds is
suitable. (If the currently selected scene is shorter
than that, exit the
Trim
screen and select another
scene. If it is longer, trim the scene down to 10
seconds)
Now trim the In point, (the point at which
the scene will begin playing). Clicking on "
IN "
replaces the displayed panel with a narrower
one, in which you can scroll with the trackball
and adjust the In point. Rolling the ball to the
right causes the scene to be shortened from the
beginning. Rolling to the left increases it again.
Clicking the left trackball button confirms your
setting and you are returned to the
Trim menu.
There you can make a frame-by-frame adjustment
using the arrow keys "<" and ">" located below
the "
IN " button.
You can adjust the Out point by clicking on
" OUT " and proceeding as explained above.
Rolling to the left shortens the scene from the
end and rolling to the right increases it again. The
arrow keys located below the "
OUT " button are
also available for frame-by-frame adjustment.
At the top of the Trim panel you see the new scene
length next to its name. The time information for
the first frame is displayed next to the "
IN " button
– 000.00:14 means, for example, that the scene
has been shortened by fourteen frames. The time
information for the last frame appears next to the
"
OUT " button.
Click on the right button to leave the Trim menu.
Select the next scene and trim it as explained abo-
ve. Continue until all scenes have been trimmed.
You should now have a series of scenes in the
scene bin that are all free of bad properties (e.g.
blurred video, bad frames, scene breaks, etc.) and
each last from 3 to 10 seconds.
The Storyboard
Now the scenes are ready to be put into
proper sequence.
Casablanca Prestige lets you
sequentiallly order the scenes in the storyboard.
It doesn‘t matter in what order they appear in the
Scene Bin .
Select the scene in the Scene Bin that you want
to be the first scene in your video project. Click
on "
Add
" (in the upper screen area, below the
storyboard itself). The scene then appears in the
horizontal panel (the storyboard) directly in the
center.
The storyboard contains the finished video pro-
ject (which right now only consists of 1 scene). Of
course, changes can be made to the storyboard at
any time.
Now select the second scene and click again on
"
Add ". You are asked whether the scene should be
added before or after the scene in the storyboard.
This question appears only when the first scene is
the active scene in the storyboard (in the center,
with its length displayed above).
Normally, Casablanca Prestige will add a scene
after the active scene in the Storyboard. The query
in this case makes it possible to insert a scene in
front of the first scene. For now, select "
behind ".
Now you already have two scenes in the
storyboard. Add the rest of the scenes in this
manner. When you are finished, all the scenes that
make up your video should be in the storyboard.
In the scene bin every scene that has been added
to the storyboard is indicated with a white point
in the upper right corner.
Now you can view the finished video in its "rough
draft” version. First you must make the first scene
in the storyboard the active scene. There are four
ways to do this:
