HOLOGRAPHIC LIVESETS

A special variant of LiveSet effects are referred to as ‘holographic’. These effects can be amazingly lifelike

and convincing, and are relatively easy to create.

FIGURE 194

Holographic LiveSet effects

are loaded into an

M/E

in the same manner as any other effect. Simply move the

cursor over the effect icon and click the + sign (

Add

Media

button) that appears to open a

Media Browser

,

then choose the effect you wish to load (several examples are included with your system). Adjust the current
view for holographic

LiveSets

in similar fashion to standard effects using the

T-Bar

(

Zoom

) and associated

Positioner

controls.

The

Comp Bin

, discussed shortly, allows you to store and apply your favorite compositions.

Preset adjustments made using the mouse vary slightly for holographic effects. For a standard LiveSet effect,
dragging the mouse left, right, up or down changes the camera position in the frame. The right-mouse button
zooms in or out. In a holographic LiveSet, right-mouse operations are the same. However dragging the
mouse on the canvas modifies camera

rotation,

rather than position.

Hint: New holographic effects, like standard LiveSets, can be created using the optional Virtual Set Editor
application. A demo version of this utility is installed on your system, and its instruction manual can be located
using the Help link on the Home page TriCaster's Launch screen.
