Shot Editor Motion
The Motion Panel provides control over how objects (image, movie, title, etc.) are
added or removed in the Live Broadcast window. To open the Motion Panel, click the
Motion Panel button in the Toolbar. Wirecast only performs motion during a Smooth
transition. If you are using any other transition, the motion settings are ignored.
There are two types of motion. When an object is added to your broadcast it is called
Build In; When it is removed it is called Build Out.
Motion only occurs when an object enters or leaves the Live Broadcast window. For
example, if you have two shots, each with a foreground and the media in the
foreground is the same, then a Smooth transition is performed between the
foregrounds. However, no motion is performed. Or, if a logo is positioned in the top left
corner in an existing shot, and it is in the bottom right corner in a new shot, when you
make the new shot Live the logo smoothly transitions from the top left corner to the
bottom right corner. But the Build In and Build Out settings are ignored.
However, if you have two shots with a Foreground, but the media in each is different,
the Build Out is performed for the existing shot, and the Build In is performed for the
new shot.
Direction Menus These provide selections of where the Build In comes from (top,
bottom, right, etc.) when it is added, and where the Build Out goes when it is removed.
Fade In / Fade Out Checking these checkboxes causes an object to be added or
removed gradually. If unchecked, the object is instantly added or removed, much like a
cut transition.
Spin In / Spin Out Checking these checkboxes causes an object to be added or
removed in a spinning fashion.
Scale In / Scale Out Checking these checkboxes causes an object to be added or
removed in a scaled fashion.
Decelerate In / Accelerate Out Checking these checkboxes causes all of the above
actions to be performed at a slower or faster rate.
