Using Specific Keyframing Tracks
If you’re simply using the Color mode of the All/Color/Sizing command to do keyframing, then
you’ll be adding keyframes to every parameter of the currently selected node whenever you
apply a single keyframe. However, often that’s overkill in situations where you only need to
keyframe a single setting or group of settings.
For example, you may find that you need to keyframe a color adjustment in order to change the
color temperature and brightness when the camera pans across a window, but you don’t want
to keyframe the Windows palette controls because you want to adjust them independently. This
can be done by opening a Corrector track to expose the keyframing tracks within.
Individual keyframing tracks within a Color Corrector node
Keyframing tracks let you keyframe different sets of similarly functioning parameters separately
from one another. For example, there’s one keyframing track for all the color adjustment
parameters, and another keyframing track governing the parameters found within the
Qualifier palette.
To reveal a node’s keyframing tracks:
Click the disclosure triangle next to the number of the node you’re keyframing.
To keyframe an individual keyframing track manually:
1 Make whatever adjustments you need to the currently selected node, and click its
disclosure triangle to reveal its keyframing tracks.
2 Move the playhead in the Keyframe Editor to where you want to add the first keyframe,
then right-click within the keyframing track you want to animate, and choose Add Static
Keyframe or Add Dynamic Keyframe (this example shows a Dynamic keyframe).
A keyframe appears at the position of the playhead in that keyframing track.
3 Move the playhead in the Keyframe Editor to where you want to add the next keyframe,
then right-click within the keyframing track and again choose either Add Static
Keyframe or Add Dynamic Keyframe (this example shows a Dynamic keyframe).
