CHAPTER 7:

ADDING TITLES AND

TRANSITIONS

Titles Mode

Generally, at the beginning of every movie or show, text is involved to convey the

title, starring and supporting actors, and other information for all those involved

and whom made the movie possible. When a movie or show wraps up, the full spate

of credits will be rolled out too.

For smaller movie productions, you may want to inform viewers with textual effects

instead of just visual effects. So, get ready to begin communicating literally like you

never have before.

Note: After you have modified your file in this mode, a red line will be displayed in the Modes

Wheel to indicate this.

1 Select a video clip from the Library by double-clicking on the selected file or

dragging it into the Preview Window. Refer to "Importing into the Library" on

page 27 for more information on importing.

2 To add titles to files that have already been applied to the Storyboard, simply

select the particular clip by double-clicking and it will be displayed in the

Preview Window.

3 Click Titles Mode on the Modes Wheel.

Note: Whenever the mode switches from Preview to another mode for the first time, a dialog

box may appear to notify you that the file will be added to the Storyboard automatically

depending on your Preferences. Refer to "Preferences" on page 39 for more information.
