Transform effects
Camera View effect (Windows only)
The Camera View effect distorts a clip by simulating a camera viewing the clip from different angles. By controlling
the location of the camera, you distort the shape of the clip.
Latitude Moves the camera vertically. The effect makes the clip appear to be flipping vertically.
Longitude Moves the camera horizontally. The effect makes the clip appear to be flipping horizontally.
Roll Rolls the camera, thus appearing to rotate the clip.
Focal length Changes the focal length of the camera lens. Shorter lengths provide wider views, whereas longer focal
lengths provide narrower but closer views.
Distance Sets the distance between the camera and the center of the clip.
Zoom Enlarges or reduces the view of the clip.
Fill Color Specifies the background color.
Fill Alpha Channel Makes the background transparent (useful if the clip with the effect is superimposed). In the Effect
Controls panel, click Setup to access this option.
Crop effect
The Crop effect trims pixels from the edges of a clip.
The Left, Top, Right, and Bottom properties specify what percentage of the image to remove.
Note: You can directly manipulate the crop in the Program monitor. Click the Transform icon next to Crop in the
Effect Controls panel. Drag the corner handles in the Program Monitor.
Select Zoom to scale the cropped image to fit the frame.

Edge Feather effect
The Edge Feather effect lets you vignette the video in a clip by creating a soft black border on all four sides. The border
width is controlled by entering an Amount value.
Horizontal Flip effect
(32-bit) The Horizontal Flip effect reverses each frame in a clip from left to right; however, the clip still plays in a
forward direction.
Horizontal Hold effect (Windows only)
The Horizontal Hold effect skews the frames to the left or to the right; the effect is similar to the horizontal hold setting
on a television set. Drag the slider to control the clip’s slant.
