Creating an InstantMovie
Movie themes create movies with a specific appearance. For example, the Wedding Doves theme adds an elegant
introduction and conclusion, flying white doves overlay, and wedding background music. And the Comic Book theme
creates a fun kids party video by adding stylish effects, such as Color Emboss, picture-in-picture overlays, and large
artistic fonts in the title. Each theme uses a unique editing style for selecting, trimming, and sequencing clips.
The default duration for a theme is approximately 4 to 6 minutes. You can use InstantMovies on all of the clips in your
movie, or on a subset, creating a montage or special feature at the beginning or end of a DVD.
You can choose from a variety of themes. You can apply all of the properties in a theme, or choose to add only a subset.
Likewise, you can add a theme to an entire sequence in the Sceneline, or you can choose to add it to only a single clip.
Important: For access to a variety of fun new themes, sign up for a Plus membership to Photoshop.com. With a Plus
membership, new themes are continually available from the Photoshop.com category of the Themes menu in the Tasks
panel. Adobe Premiere Elements free online benefits and Adobe Premiere Elements Plus are available in the United States
only. Internet access required.
