Animating a clip’s position in the Program Monitor
1 Select a clip in a Timeline panel.
2 Do one of the following:
• Select the Motion effect in the Effect Controls panel.
• Click the image in the Program Monitor.
• Click the Transform icon next to Motion in the Effect Controls panel.
Handles appear around the clip’s perimeter in the Program Monitor.
Note: If you don’t see the clip handles, change the Zoom Level in the Program Monitor to a smaller percentage so that the
gray work area around the video frame appears.
3 Move the current-time indicator to the frame where you want to start the animation—any frame between the clip’s
current In point to its Out point.
4 In the Effect Controls panel, expand the Motion effect and click the Toggle Animation button next to each
property you want to define at that point in time. A Keyframe icon appears at the current-time indicator for that
property.
5 In the Program Monitor, change the keyframe value by positioning the pointer near any of the clip’s eight square
handles to use any of the following pointer tools:
• The selection pointer to set the position value.
• The rotate pointer to set the rotation value.
• The scale pointer to set the scale value.
Note: If clip handles disappear, reselect the Motion effect in the Effect Controls panel.
