How to Use Morph Transitions

NEW in Pinnacle Studio 21 Ultimate

Morph Transitions creates a fun metamorphosis effect by analyzing the content in one clip and blending the content as it transitions to the next clip.

The Morph Transition Editor lets you set a guide line for each clip to help determine the area of focus for the transition, such as a horizon line. You can then preview the transition and make adjustments to the guide line and length (duration) of the transition.

Morph transitions work best between clips that have similar reference points.

To edit a Morph Transition:

1. Add the Morph Transition to the timeline using your method of choice.

2. In the timeline, double-click the transition to open the Morph Transition dialog box.

3. Click Edit to open the Morph Transition Editor.

4. In the Start area and End area, drag to set the nodes for the guide line that will be used as a reference point. You can add nodes by clicking the guide line.
* You can undo or redo actions by using the Undo and Redo buttons at the top of the window.

5. In the Preview area, use the playback controls to preview the transition.
* You can drag the vertical bar to adjust the length (duration) of the transition.

6. If required, adjust the guide lines to fine tune the transformation.

Click OK to exit the editor.
