Building a Cube and Using Easy Cube

A 3-D cube can be created using three Transform Engine channels (only
three channels are needed since only three sides of a cube are visible at a
time). To create seamless cubes, use the negative crop value from one
channel as the Source Z Locate of the other channel. Use the horizontal
Crop values to determine the sides of a solid, and use the vertical Crop
values to determine the top and bottom sides of the solid.

For example, the following procedure creates a half-size three sided cube
using three keyers of an M/E.

1.

Select on the A bus of the M/E the background image over which you
wish to have the cube appear.

2.

Select the sources for the three sides of the cube on three keyers of the
M/E. You will use the

Alt

modifier button for the third keyer.

3.

Turn on all three keyers on that M/E. You will see only one keyed
image because the other two are hidden behind it.

4.

Delegate all three keyers for control by the Keyers subpanel so you can
apply the same values to them simultaneously. This can easily be done
by pressing and holding down the Keyer Delegation buttons next to the
M/E Status display for all three keyers so these buttons are illuminated.
This delegates the Keyers subpanel and the Transform subpanel to all
three keyers.

5.

Turn on Effects Send for all three keyers by pressing the

Effects Send

button in the Keyers subpanel.

Note

If you cannot turn on Effects Send, go to the Effects Send menu
(M/E/Effects Send) menu and turn off Effects Send on keyers not currently
being used to free up Transform Engines. You may then need to re-delegate
the subpanels to all three keyers with the Keyer Delegation buttons.

6.

Delegate all three keyers again for control by the Transform subpanel,
using the Keyer Delegation buttons as described above, or by pressing
all three keyer delegation buttons at the same time in the Transform
subpanel.

7.

Set all three keyers to half-size on the Transform Subpanel. Press
