from your video footage. The main program and almost all

add-on programs make use of the Image Pool. In this way,

graphics brought into the system by one program can auto-

matically be used by all other programs.

The Image Pool is used in many areas of the system, e.g.

titling, when creating new scenes, in the edit screen or in

conjunction with DVD Arabesk. If you select the scene “Pat-

tern” in the menu “New”, the option “Select Pattern” appears

to the right. You can click on this to open the Select pattern

screen which offers you a number of patterns to choose from.

In the upper left area, the selection button “Product” offers you

a list of the main program “Bogart SE”, “DVD Arabesk” (if it is

installed), different additional programs and the option “Cus-

tom Images” .

The next selection button “Type” offers you up to four different

types of graphics:

Masks are used mainly by programs such as Liquid Images.

The masks are gray pictures whose form is used by these pro-

grams to specify the course of effects. But the masks can also

be used for other purposes. For example, they can be colored

and used to achieve variety in backgrounds for titling.

Monochrome (gray) patterns (also called “textures”) are

listed here. These can be colored and used as a background

elsewhere. Because the patterns are usually smaller than the

screen, they are automatically tiled on the screen, until the

desired surface is completely covered.

Color shows multi-colored patterns that are used in the same

way as the monochrome patterns. No further coloring is pos-

sible as the patterns already contain color.

Pictures can be found in this category, (e.g. you see here the

maps of the program “Columbus” (if it is installed) or the back-

ground pictures for DVD Arabesk). Although they are intended

to be used as a background for DVD titles, the pictures can

also be used elsewhere in the system.

You‘ll ﬁnd “Bogart SE” under “Product”. From here, you can

also ﬁnd logos of the single systems as well as the Macro-

System logo. These can be used as background pictures

when creating your own text panel in the titling screen and

are therefore very useful for credits. In addition, you will ﬁnd

many pictures provided here (e.g. stars). They have many uses

particularly when creating titles.

In the bottom left corner of the image pool you will see the

i-button described earlier. This button allows you to access

information on the currently selected “Product”. If you click on

the “Save Image” button, the “Product” selection will change

to “Custom Images” and the “Type” selection will change to

“Images”. The system will also ask you to select an entry.

Conﬁrm this notiﬁcation with “OK” and select a free (black)

image from the list. If you click on an entry that is already in

use, its contents will be replaced by the new contents. Then

click on “Save Image” again to open the scene bin so you can

select the starting frame of a scene that you want from the bin.

Once you have selected and conﬁrmed the scene in the list,

you get to a menu that allows you to scroll through a scene,

in order to choose a speciﬁc image from this scene. After you

conﬁrm with “OK” it appears in the image collection and in a

large preview (right). You can store a total of 18 of your own

images here, which you can later use anywhere in your video

editing work.

Tip: You can‘t delete your own pictures, but you can replace

them anytime with new ones. You can of course also readjust

the “Product” selection and “Type” selection manually before

saving a picture.

All patterns can also be used as textures for fonts in the

Titling menu. In order to select an image, it should be selected

directly in the image list by means of the trackball. A magniﬁed

preview of this image will then be displayed on the right of this

menu. If the image to be displayed is smaller than suggested

by the preview, it will be displayed in front of a checkered

background. This will not be visible in the ﬁnal rendering. In

the top left corner of this preview window, you can see if this

is an image in HDV quality. You can also see the names of the

selected mask above and to the right. Below this window you

ﬁnd several buttons:

The “Colorize” button allows you to colorize all patterns - even

colored ones. For masks this is only possible when they are

not used for movement. If you click onto the “Colorize” button,

a menu with several buttons will appear. Use “Mode” to select

how many colors are to be used. This will then lead to the

respective amount of palette buttons appearing.

Your coloring will be displayed in the preview window.

Original: There is no coloring and the pattern remains in its

original color or monochrome. Additionally, you can use this

function to return to the original color of the pattern.

1 Color: The pattern brightness remains; yet one color is add-

ed according to the color you choose in “Color 1”. The bright-

ness chosen in the color box is ignored as this is controlled by

the monochrome part of the pattern.

2 Colors: You can create a color gradient from one color to

another. ““Color 1” is added in the parts used by the mono-

chrome image. “Color 3” replaces white. Depending on the

pattern, instead of the black and white parts, the most bright

and dark parts of the pattern are used. Between the two

colors, all previously monochrome tones are replaced by the

respective color tones and a soft color gradient is created.

3 Colors: In comparison with the shift between two colors, a

third color is added: “Color 2”. This color replaces the gray
