You can save transition effects as Quick Transition to speed up the editing
process. For more information, see “Creating a Quick Transition” on
page 139.
Segment Effects
You apply a segment effect to an entire clip or a group of clips. There
are two types of segment effects:
• A single-layer segment effect, such as a Mask effect, is applied to
a segment on one video track.
• A multilayer segment effect, such as a Picture-in-Picture effect, is
applied to the top layer of segments that contain two video tracks
that will be played simultaneously.
Applying Effects to a Sequence
This section explains how to apply an effect to a sequence in the
Record monitor. You can apply an effect to:
• One transition or segment on a single video layer
• Multiple transitions or segments on a single video layer
• Multiple transitions or segments on multiple video layers
The effect type (transition or segment) determines where you can
place the effect in the sequence. For an explanation of the types of
effects, see “Effects, types of” in the Help index or the Avid NewsCutter
Effects Guide.
After you apply an effect, the next step is to adjust the effect’s
parameters. To understand how to adjust the effect parameters, see
“Effect Editor, opening” in the Help index or the Avid NewsCutter
Effects Guide.
