THE PLAYER
Now’s a good time to talk about the Player. The Player is the video screen on the right side of the
display. It lets you preview each component on the Storyboard, as well as your entire movie.
The Player has standard playback controls. The slider beneath the preview window shows you the
progress of the video. There are two times listed; the first lists the total time of the clip, while the
second lists the time at the current position.
If you want to preview your entire movie (all of the components on the Storyboard played together),
click the Entire Movie button (
). If you want to preview only a specific component on the
Storyboard, click the Active Clip button (
). If you choose the latter, single-click the component
you want to preview on the Storyboard, then press the Play button.
STEP 2 – EDIT
You’re now ready to touch up and modify your movie components. Different editing options are
available depending on the component type.
MODIFYING IMAGE AND VIDEO BRIGHTNESS/CONTRAST
1.
Single-click the desired still image or video clip on the Storyboard.
2.
Click and drag the sliders to your liking. You can preview the effect within the Player.
