Operation Manual

CyberLink PowerDirector

Note: You may select several clips and drag them together into the same

track, provided all of the clips are compatible with the destination track.

• Right-click on a clip and select Add to Video Track or Add to PiP

Track as required.

To create the basic framework of your movie, add video clips and

photos to the Master Video Track. Add media to a PiP track only to

create a picture-in-picture effect.

Note: Use the PiP Designer to customize the PiP effects in your movie

production. See"Modifying a PiP Effect or Object" on page 64 for more

information.

Add Color Boards

The use of color boards allows you to insert solid frames of color into

your movie. Color boards are really useful as quick transitions between

video clips or as background for titles and ending credits.

Note: You can add color boards to either the Master Video or PiP Track.

Add Audio Clips

Using audio clips allows you to add background music or a narrative

voice-over to your movie. CyberLink PowerDirector provides two tracks

for audio media (the Music and Voice Tracks), which you can use

interchangeably.

To add video clips or photos to the workspace, you can:

• Click to add the audio clip to the Voice Track or

to add the audio clip to the Music Track.

• Drag one or more audio clips to a desired position in the Voice or

Music Track. Audio clips can be added at any point in this track.

• Right-click on a clip and select Add to Voice Track or Add to

Music Track as required.
