Animating the Second Actor s Still and Credits

Animating the Second Actor's Still and Credits

In this task, we'll animate the second actor's freeze frame as well as her credits. We'll be using the same keyframing technique with the Motion effect as we did with the first actor's freeze frame and credits.

Animate the Second Actor's Still

On the Timeline, move the CTI to 00;00;18;00, which is the start of the retro-title_FF_1.bmp clip.

Click on the retro-title_FF_1.bmp.

In the Properties panel for the clip, click the triangle next to Motion.

Click the Toggle animation button.

Move the CTI to 00;00;22;28.

Change the Position to 360 -245.

Move the CTI to 00;00;20;15.

Change the Position here to 360 240.

Animate the Second Actor's Credits

On the Timeline, click the Title 02 clip, the credits for the second actor, in the Video 2 track.

Important

Be sure to click just once to ensure that we are working with the clip as a media clip and not as a text clip in the Titler.

In the Properties panel, click the triangle next to Motion.

Move the CTI until the bottom edge of the retro-title_FF_1.bmp clip is just above the Title 02 clip, as shown in the illustration (at about 00;00;21;12).

Click the Toggle animation button.

Move the CTI to the end of the Title 02 clip, at 00;00;22;29.

Change the Position to -225 240.
