3. Drag the Ending Mark to the spot where you would like the clip to end.
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/delete 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.
NARRATE
In addition to being able to add audio files to the Storyboard, you can also
record audio directly within the program. To record audio:
1. Click the Audio Settings button and verify the audio configuration (in
general, higher settings will yield higher audio quality but larger file
sizes).
2. Click the red Record button.
