To quickly apply Motion effect changes to a sequence clip, you can click the image in the Program Monitor and
begin manipulation (without first clicking the Transform icon next to the Motion effect in the Effect Controls

panel). If you adjust the position of the image, you can further refine its movement by using the Bezier keyframes.

Animate a clip in the Program Monitor

When the Motion effect is selected in the Effect Controls panel, you can manipulate a clip in the Program Monitor.
Create an animation by setting keyframes for one or more of the Motion effect’s properties (for example, Position).

Animating a clip’s position in the Program Monitor

1

Select a clip in the Timeline panel.

2

Do one of the following:

Select the Motion effect in the Effect Controls panel.

Click the image in the Program Monitor.

Click the Transform icon

next to Motion in the Effect Controls panel.

Handles appear around the clip’s perimeter in the Program Monitor.

Note: If you don’t see the clip handles, change the Zoom Level in the Program Monitor to a smaller percentage so that
the gray work area around the video frame appears.

3

Move the current-time indicator to the frame where you want to start the animation—any frame between the

clip’s current In point to its Out point.

4

In the Effect Controls panel, expand the Motion effect and click the Toggle Animation button

next to each

property you want to define at that point in time. A Keyframe icon appears at the current-time indicator for that
property.
