How do you make images move?

Post by jesseforrest »

Hey Guys and Girls,

How do you make an image zoom inwards slowly
until it's in the centre of the screen?

I'm using ulead video studio 10.

Thanks
Jesse

Hi Jesse,

When you drop an image onto the timeline, you should see 2 tabs (to the right if you're using the default layout), Image and Attributes. On the Image tab, to the right look for Resampling option and then underneath it is Pan & Zoom. Check the radial button to its left, then several presets will be available. You can then customize the effect, by clicking the Customize icon. In the Customize dialog, you use keyframes. (See page 76 of the manual).

I see what you mean. But it won't let me check the radial button "pan and zoom". Nor the drop down menu underneath it (where you mentioned the different options are). Please clarify.

Hi

Make sure you have selected the image in the timeline, click the image to select.

If you are viewing the image from the library, then the Pan & zoom option will be greyed out.

It must be something wrong with THIS particular image I have inserted into the time line. Ulead doesnt like it for some reason (although i have saved and re-inserted it in jpg and bmp formats).

All other images seems to work. Just not this one.

What could I be doing wrong?

I seem to remember that Pan & Zoom does not work with masked images. For example images that were edited and an unsharp mask applied.

If you find two apparently conflicting video filters then you can go against the normal suggested work flow and render twice.
Render the relevant images/video clips with one filter and then use that in place of the original.

Another option similar to that above but avoiding two renders is to create small Videostudio projects with those images/video clips and apply the first filter. Return to your original project and replace those images/video clips with the relevant Videostudio project files and then apply the second filter.

The beauty of Video Editing is that there is often more than one way to achieve an effect.
