Trimming Video Clips
You can perform trims on the video clips used in the Theme Designer. To trim a
video clip, right-click on it in the Theme Designer and then select Trim. Or hover
your mouse over the video clip and click on in its thumbnail. See Performing a
Single Trim for detailed information on trimming video clips.
Muting Video Clips
Some theme templates and sequences contain background music that will be used
in your video. Because of this, you may want to mute the audio in the imported
video clips, so that it doesn't conflict with the background music.
To mute the audio in a video clip, hover your mouse over the video clip and then
click on in its thumbnail.
Modifying Image Duration
To modify the duration that an image clip is displayed in your outputted video, do
this:
1. Right-click on it in the Theme Designer and then select Set Duration. Or hover
your mouse over the image clip and then click on in its thumbnail.
2. In the Duration Settings window, enter in the how long you want it to display
in your video production. You can set the duration down to the number of
frames.
3. Click on OK.
Applying Zoom In on Media Clips
Some media slots in sequences allow you to zoom in on the media clip that was
added to it. If a zoom is available, then the icon is displayed in the top right
corner.
