Effects-transitions
The third step in the creation process lets you add cool scene transitions
between each still image or video component on the Storyboard.
Transitions are effects that occur as one movie component changes to
another. You can add/delete transitions in the same way that you add/de-
lete media components. Click the “Randomize” button to automatically add
a random transition to each spot. You can go back to Step 2 to modify the
display time for your transitions as well.
Text
This step lets you add text over any still image or video component on the
Storyboard. Click on the component you want, then type in your text. You
can modify all the standard parameters, such as font, size, style, alignment,
and color.
You can also add a shadow. To do this, check the Shadow box. Click and drag
within the preview to position the shadow behind the text. Use the sliders to
adjust the shadow blur and intensity.
