An overview of motion effects
- [Instructor] I have to thank EditStock for giving us this fantastic media, which is so perfect for demonstrating motion effects. We've got these great shots of guys running around, jumping across stuff, and it just helps us to look at speed changes really clearly, broadly speaking, if you exclude things like over-cranking and changing the interpreted frame rate of media, there are three ways you're going to change the motion or play back speed of clips in Media Composer. One option is, you're going to make a freeze frame. So here I can right click in the player monitor, and I can chose freeze frame, and I can specify a duration. I can tell Media Composer what to do with the fields, and the result is a still image that has no motion, and I can incorporate into my project. Just in this window now, I'm going to press my keyboard shortcut for match frame, which I set up previously as y, but there's a button down here at the bottom of the window, and this will take us back to the source…
