Changing between shots
The functions on the workspace menu bar and the Edit menu enable you to cut or fade
between shots and alter the fade time.
Cutting between shots
Cut moves the camera unit between its current shot position and the selected shot
position as quickly as possible (ignoring the stored Fade Time for that shot).
1.
Select the required shot on the touch screen:
2.
Touch Cut to move from the current position to the selected shot, as fast as
possible.
Latched Cut
The Cut function can be latched to speed up system operation. Latched Cut
immediately cuts between the current and selected shots as soon as a new shot is
selected, i.e. you do not need to explicitly touch Cut to start the transition.
1.
Make sure that no shots are currently cued (no shot thumbnails have a green
background).
2.
Touch Cut on the touch screen – the button turns red to denote Latched Cut
mode.
3.
Check that the operating area around the cameras is clear.
4.
When a shot is selected on the touch screen, the thumbnail immediately turns
red and the camera unit moves to the selected shot position.
5.
Select other shots as required. In each case the thumbnail immediately turns
red and the camera moves to the selected shot.
6.
Touch Cut again on the touch screen to return to the normal control mode
with Cut and Fade available.
Fading between shots
Fade moves the camera unit between its current shot position and the selected shot
position with the duration of the transition determined by the stored time for the
selected shot. However, if the shot cannot be reached within the stored time, the
transition is as fast as possible.
1.
Select the required shot on the touch screen.
2.
Touch Fade to move from the current position to the selected shot with the
duration of the transition determined by the stored time.
Note:
The Fade function is not available when Latched Cut is enabled.
