8 Repeat steps 5 and 6 as needed.
When you animate a clip, it can be useful to reduce the Program view's magnification
level. This way, you can see more of the pasteboard area outside the visible area of the
screen and can use it to position the clip off screen.
Modifying the motion path
To change any keyframed property, you have to set the current-time indicator precisely at
the specific keyframe that you want to change. However, you can change the value of a
Position keyframe, and thereby adjust your motion path, simply by dragging the Position
keyframe (indicated by a white X) in the Program view.
To change Position keyframes in the motion path:
1 Select a clip that has Motion effect keyframes.
2 In the Effect Controls window, select the Motion effect. The clip's motion path appears
in the Program view.
3 Do any of the following:
To move an existing keyframe, drag the keyframe handle in the Program view.
•
To create a new position keyframe, set the current time between existing keyframes
•
and drag the image in the Program view. A new keyframe appears in the timeline, the
Effect Controls window, and the Timeline window.
Note: This procedure changes the position value at a keyframe. To change the timing of
keyframes, move Keyframe icons in the Effect Controls window (see
on page 249).
Correcting color in a clip
You can use effects to adjust the color of your clips to meet broadcast requirements or to
match color from scene to scene. Adobe Premiere Pro includes two effects that allow you
to easily correct color in video clips in either YUV or RGB color space. The Color Corrector
effect combines several different color correction tools that allow you to adjust the black-
and-white balance and color and limit chrominance and luminance values. The Color
Match effect allows you to match the overall tone in a clip to other clips in the sequence.
For a simpler approach to correcting color for broadcast, see
page 260.
To determine the IRE levels of your sequence, use the Vectorscope or Waveform Monitor in
the Monitor window (see
page 111). To use the Vectorscope or Waveform Monitor most effectively, view it in a
separate Reference monitor that is ganged to the Program view so that you can check
your video levels as you make adjustments.
Although Color Corrector and Color Match are clip-based effects, you can apply them
to multiple clips by nesting sequences.
