About the Keyframe Graph Area
This area can be divided into four parts relating to motion, filter, and speed parameters
applied to your clips.
 Filter bar: If a clip has one or more video or audio filters applied, a green bar appears
in this space for the duration of that clip. If keyframes are added to a filter in a given
clip, those keyframes appear as green diamonds on this bar, where they can be
edited or moved using the Selection tool.
 Motion bar: If any of a clip’s motion parameters are modified, a blue bar appears in
this space for the duration of that clip. If keyframes are added to the motion settings
for a given clip, those keyframes appear as blue diamonds on this bar, where they
can be edited or moved using the Selection tool. Motion bars are available only for
video tracks.
