 Position X and Y: Use these to move the image left and right (X) and up and
down (Y).
 Rotation: Use this to rotate the image around its anchor point.
 Scale: Use this to change the image’s size.
 Anchor X and Y: Use these to move the image’s center point. This denes the point

Trim clips

window look. This eect, often used along with the Transform eect, is commonly used
on a clip placed over a primary storyline clip, which becomes the background of the
trimmed clip.
