IX Setting Keyframes Until you create at least one keyframe for a parameter (or setting) of a clip, changes you make to that parameter affect the entire duration of the clip. Once you set the first keyframe for a parameter, additional keyframes are generated automatically when you make any subsequent changes to that parameter anywhere else in that clip. You generally need to set at least two keyframes to make changes or effects that are useful or noticeable. Note: For some parameters, you must click the disclosure triangle to view its keyframes in the keyframe graph area. To set keyframes from the Viewer or Canvas: m To add a keyframe to all of the selected clip's motion settings at once: In the Video tab of the Viewer or in the Canvas, click the Add Keyframe button. Add Keyframe button in the Canvas To set a keyframe using the Pen tool, do one of the following: m Select the Pen tool in the Tool palette (or press P); then, in the appropriate tab of the Viewer, click a parameter's keyframe graph line (in the keyframe graph area) where you want to add the keyframe. m Hold down the Option key and click a parameter's keyframe graph line where you want to add the keyframe. ∏ Tip: This is also useful for setting keyframes in the video opacity and audio level overlays of a clip in the Timeline. Once you've added at least one keyframe to a parameter, new keyframes are automatically added whenever you move the playhead and make further adjustments. To better see what you are doing, you may want to add more space to the keyframe graph area before you set additional keyframes. Chapter 50 Adjusting Parameters for Keyframed Effects 723
