New Special FX: Pan

Today we have added a new special effect in the studio: The PAN effect. This effect should make it much easier to create camera movements in your scenes. It is meant to be used together with the zoom and cut effect to add dynamic effects in your scenes.


To use it, simply drag it to the starting location where you want the camera to focus. Then drag the effect to the destination where you want to camera to stop of the end of the scene. As you drag you will see that the starting position remains the same and you are only dragging the end position for the effect. After this you can fine-tune both starting and ending position the way you want.

When you add a scene, the Pan effect is copied to the next one, but the ending position is now your starting position. Neat, huh?! And... if you want to use a zoom or cut effect in that next scene instead, no problem, simply click on these effects and they will be copied to the right position.

That's about it really. It's now up to you to let us know what you think of this effect and if it is a good complement to the existing zoom and cut ones. Enjoy! :o)
