eye can distinguish only about 100 different levels of bright-
ness, but about 100,000 different colors.
24. Spread: Here you create a "shimmering" image. This is
achieved by distributing the pixels within a circle (which you
set with "Step" 1-10) containing the original pixel.
25. White balance: In case recording has led to erroneous
white matching resulting in white and gray surfaces that look
wrong but the color is OK, you can specify the location and
size of a rectangle with the button "Reference Color". Then the
color fault within the rectangle is averaged and the deviations
in the entire image are canceled out. Note that only light color
faults can be improved. You can turn a red surface into a gray
one, but the effects on the rest of the image are extreme (color
distortion). In the case that there is no colorless surface in the
image, then a color correction can only be done with the effect
"Control Color".
26. Zoom: A defined image area can be zoomed in. Under
"Position" you give the location and size of the rectangle area.
Under "Zoom In" and "Zoom Out" you specify the start and
end time of the effect (up to 12 seconds).
Note: Increasing the zoom during editing does not fully replace
an optical zoom found in the camera. Digital zooming during
editing always results is quality loss.
27. Effect stack: This effect allows you to bundle as many ef-
fects as you wish and apply them to a scene in one go. To use
it, access the settings for this effect.
In the screenshot above, you can see the effect list in the top
left. Underneath, the following options:
`Add effect´: Choose effects from the image processing effect
list to be added to the stack.
`Remove effect´: Removes an effect from the stack.
`Effect to the top´: Moves the currently selected effect to the
top of the stack.
`Effect to the bottom´: Moves the currently selected effect to
the bottom of the stack.
Moving effects within the stack makes sense as the effects are
applied in the order going from top to bottom. This way, each
effect is influenced by the previous effect. The order of effects
may therefore be crucial. Use the preview button to check the
result before rendering.
4.11 Titling
Titling functions much the same as if it were an Image
Processing effect. Titling is actually done as a picture-editing
effect. Instead of a "filter”, digital text is added to your video.
Titling has two menus. The settings in the "Titling" menu corre-
spond closely to those of the image processing effects menu.
You can read the corresponding description there for informa-
tion about functions such as Insert, Delete, Range, Preview,
Single image, Calculate, and Scene.
After you have selected a desired title effect, and perhaps set
further Options in the field to the right of the effect list, you
must first add the effect into the storyboard. You can then en-
ter the Titler menu by clicking on the button "Enter/edit Text"
below the effect options.
(1) In the background you see the first frame of your video
scene. This full frame display serves as orientation for adding
text. This lets you immediately see how the text looks overlaid
on the particular scene you are editing. At the vertical or hori-
zontal edge of the window you may see - according to effect -
a scroll bar, with which you can scroll through the text box.
If text boxes are already present in the video image, then you
can use this menu to enter text with the help of an external
keyboard.
(2) If you click on the button “Text”, you will continue to see the
first image of your scene. There is a task bar in the foreground.
This task bar provides you with several components that are
described in the following:
• With the keyboard you can enter the text of your choice. It is
also possible to connect an external keyboard (e.g. PowerKey
option) to enter the text. Any adjustments you make to the set-
tings will automatically be applied to the next line of text entry.
If you want, you can enter the text later, but it is recommended
that you enter some letters now in order to better judge the
results later.
If you would like to format every line with its own settings (e.g.
font, size, color), then click on the newline key after every
