Using keyframe animation to modify an effect
Keyframe animation can be used to smoothly and gradually modify an effect. For example, if you wanted
to gradually fade an event to black and white, you could use the Black and White effect to create two
keyframes. The first keyframe would use the Reset to None preset, and the second keyframe would use the
100% Black and White preset. During playback the event would start playing in color and gradually fade to
black and white.
