not occur in the created effect. A preview requires
no space on the hard-drive.

) After you have inserted an Image Processing
effect and perhaps specified its range, you can
click on "
Full Size
" to bring up an additional
menu. In the background you see the middle
frame of the entire segment for the inserted Image
Processing effect (if the effect is applied on the
entire scene, then you will see the middle frame of
the video scene).
An operating panel with effect options (to the
right, if there are any for the selected effect),
overlays the video.
To the left you see the button "
Display
" with three
available possibilities. With "
Original
" you can
view your original scene. With "
Effect
" you can
observe your scene with the applied effect. "
Orig.
+ Effect
" displays the original scene in the left
screen half and the applied effect in the right half.
In this way you can easily compare the original
with the applied effect.
Above the function "
Display
" you see the "
Frame
"
slider with which you can set the point in time of
the long-term effect that you want to view.
In this way you can view the inserted effect at any
point in time of the scene. The button does not
have to be confirmed, so that you can scroll slowly
through the scene and view the effect at the same
time.
Of course, you can change the effect options as
you wish and thus have the possibility of directly
comparing various colors and directions.
The effect options set in this menu are accepted
with "
OK
" and you are returned to the Edit menu.
With "
Cancel
" you exit the "
Full Size
" menu wit-
hout changes.
The
arrow button
serves to move the Single-
image menu to the upper screen edge.

) When you click on the "
Create
" button a
window appears in which the effect can be viewed
as it is created. After completed calculation the
outline of the effect symbol is blue.
When you calculate an effect
Casablanca Pres-
tige
reads all individual images from the scene
in question and applies the effect to it. The result
is stored on the hard drive. This procedure takes
time and consumes hard-drive capacity.
When recording data you should always leave a
small amount of hard drive capacity in reserve.
Depending on how often effects are used, this
should be between 2% and 10% of the video
playing time.
Although it is theoretically possible to apply an
effect to the entire video material, it is usually not
meaningful to apply a general color or brightness
correction to all the footage. This would require
extensive hard-drive capacity and would take a
long time to be calculated. It is better to make
such corrections when recording from the video
input device using the sliders in the "
Video set-
tings
" screen.

) You can apply the multi-layering technique
with
Casablanca Prestige
. If you would like to
overlay several long-term effects, you at first insert
an effect into a scene and create it. Then you con-
vert the scene with the inserted effect into a sepa-
rate scene. To do this click on the button "
Scene
".
A window appears in which you can select the
range for the new scene. The name of the effect
applied appears under "
Name
" as default name
for the new scene. You can change this name by
clicking on it and calling up the keyboard.
You also have the three options "
Effect
", "
Scene(s)
", and "
Range
". In order to make a new
scene just from the effect with the previously set
range, click on "
Effect
" and then on "
OK
". The
effect is turned into a scene and put into the scene
bin of the
Edit
menu.
You can also adjust the length of the new scene
to the range of the previous scene (with inserted
effect). In this case click on "
Scene(s)
"
and then on "
OK
". The new scene is created and
appears in the scene bin.
Alternatively, you can create the new scene from
the entire length or a segment of the storyboard.
Click on "Range", confirm with "
OK
", and use the
IN and OUT points in the familiar Range menu
to select the range containing the new scene. The
wave form can be of help (
section 3.3
) and can be
toggled on/off with the loudspeaker symbol.
Then click in the Range menu on "
OK
" and the
scene is created and put into the Edit menu in the
Scene Bin.
Of course, you can create a separate scene from a
storyboard segment in which there is no effect.
Simply select a scene in the storyboard and click
on "
Scene
". In the window displayed only the
