Adobe Premiere Elements 9 guide

To apply Time Stretch to an image:

1. In the My Project panel, click Timeline.

2. Move the image to the end of the movie or another track

with sufficient space.

3. Click the Time Stretch tool at the top of the Timeline.

4. Position the pointer over the edge of the image you want

to stretch until the correct icon appears:

• Time Stretch In icon to time stretch the image to the

left of the pointer.

• Time Stretch Out icon to time stretch the image to

the right of the pointer.

5. Drag the edge of the image to extend or shorten it on the

Timeline.

Extending it will cause the image to appear for more

time, while shortening it will cause the image to appear

for less time.

As you stretch the image, Premiere Elements indicates

by how much time the clip is changing (Figure 25).

6. Rewind the clip and click Play to preview your changes.

7. Shorten or lengthen the image as necessary.

8. If you moved the image in step 2, you can now use the

Selection tool to drag the image back into place.
