Chapter 4, Setting Up Realtime Effects with Adobe Premiere Pro

Creating a page curl effect

The Matrox page curl effect lets you create page curls that are truly 3D with
full-motion video on the reverse side, and realistic highlights. You can control the
position, rotation, scaling, and zooming of the page curls in 3D space, and apply
softness to the edges. You can also apply page curls on graphics to create great
looking text effects.

° To set up a Matrox page curl effect:

Page Curl

$

Fold Type

You can select

Page

Peel

or

Page

Roll

as your page curl type

(this setting is active for the duration of your effect).

$

Fold Angle

Sets the angle of your page curl, in degrees. Alternately, you

can set the number of spins for your page curl.

$

Curl Radius

Determines the tightness of your page curl. For example, a

radius of 0 produces the tightest page curl, and the higher the radius, the
looser the page curl.

$

Progression

Sets the progression of your page curl pattern at any

keyframe. In order to see your page curl progress you need to apply at least
two keyframes to your clip. To create a standard page curl, create a keyframe
at the first frame of your clip with

Progression

set to 0%, and another

keyframe at the last frame of your clip with

Progression

set to 100%. For

more information about creating keyframes, see your Adobe Premiere Pro
documentation.

$

Edge Softness

Creates a soft edge on your page curl.
