Cropping your clip

Cropping your clip

Many of the Matrox effects allow you to apply crop settings to your clip. To
apply crop settings, click the triangle next to

Crop

to expand the property list.

Note

If you’re applying a Matrox effect that doesn’t provide the

Crop

property, you can apply realtime cropping to your clip using Adobe Premiere
Pro’s crop effect (available in the

Video Effects

bin under

Transform

). The

Premiere Pro crop effect will remain realtime unless you enable the

Zoom

option. For more information about using Premiere Pro’s crop effect, see your
Adobe Premiere Pro documentation.

The controls under

Crop

let you crop any edge of your clip. You can enter the

values you want in the text boxes or drag the appropriate sliders (

Left

,

Right

,

Top

,

Bottom

).

Crop Left

Crops the left edge of your clip.

Crop Right

Crops the right edge of your clip

.

Crop Top

Crops the top edge of your clip.

Crop Bottom

Crops the bottom edge of your clip.

Select Crop

Displays a dialog box in which you can apply your crop

settings. For details, see

“Using Select Crop”

on page

Stretch to original size

Select this to stretch the cropped area to the

original size of your clip. For the Matrox cube effect, this option is not
available because the cropped area is automatically stretched to fit the
original size.
