Text Effects
Text effects operate primarily on text fields:
roll
Text scrolls continuously up the Program graphic, bottom to top.
crawl
Text moves continuously across the Program graphic, right to left.
reveal
Text is typed onto the Program graphic, one character, word or row
at a time.
Motion Effects
You can use the Motion Editor to create special effects, “motion scripts”, that are
not necessarily based on specific graphics. You can save these custom effects in
motion (.mot) files and specify them within a sequence, just as you would any
other effect. See the
Creating Motions later in this chapter.
