Animate lter parameters
Although several Motion lters are animated (Bad Film, Bad TV, and Overdrive, for example), most

over time.

A keyframe is added when you modify a parameter value.
5 Go to the next frame where you want a keyframe.
6 Repeat steps 3–5 until you nish.
Click the Play button (or press the Space bar) to see the results.
