Chapter 7: How Tos

7.5Modify Content

This section covers simple content modifications that can be done on the Storyboard. For more information on advanced editing, see Section 3.5 and Section 7.9.

Modification 1: Rearranging Photos and Videos Rearrange photos and videos on the Storyboard by clicking and dragging any thumbnail on the Storyboard to a new location.

Modification 2: Rearranging Transitions

Transitions are replaced, rather than rearranged. Clicking and dragging any transition on the Storyboard to a new location replaces the transition that was at that location.

Modification 3: Editing Still Images

Select a photo on the Storyboard. In the preview area, specify the display time duration (hours, minutes, seconds, frames). To use the same display time for

multiple photos, right-click an image thumbnail and choose "Apply Duration to All Following." You can also use the sliders in the preview area to adjust each image's brightness, contrast, hue, and saturation.

Modification 4: Editing

Video Clips

Select a video clip on the Storyboard. In the preview area, you can adjust the brightness, contrast, hue, and saturation, as well as the volume and playback speed. In the player, you can trim the video by either dragging the green

and pink trim markers, or adjusting the timer to the spot you want and clicking the respective Trim button (pink and green scissors).
