Chapter 4, Setting Up Realtime Effects with Adobe Premiere Pro

Creating a cube effect

The Matrox cube effect lets you map video or graphics to the faces of 3D cubes.
These cubes can then be rotated in 3D space to create transition effects such as
those you often see during sports broadcasts.

The Matrox cube effect supports up to three video sources (one primary source
that the cube effect is applied on, and up to two additional sources). If you want
to use additional sources in your cube effect, the additional source clips must be
placed below, and in the same segment as, the primary source. Each additional
source is identified by applying the

Matrox Source Identifier

effect to the clip.

You must identify each additional source with a unique ID. To do this, click the
triangle beside

Matrox Source Identifier

to expand the property list, and then

select an ID number from the

Identify As

list, as shown below. You can then

reference the ID number using the

Additional Sources

setting of the Matrox

cube effect.
