  2. Video formats • When we are using Final Cut, we must remember to use the correct number of pixels for the video format chosen in our original setup. • Specified as (W x H), the various formats are: • NTSC D1 (720 x 486) normal  • NTSC D1 (720 x 486) widescreen  • NTSC DV (720 x 480) normal  • NTSC DV (720 x 480) widescreen  • PAL (720 x 576) normal  • PAL (720 x 576) widescreen • We are using PAL, so we must remember to use W=720 and H=576

  3. Using layers in Final Cut

  4. Using layers in Final Cut • We have used layers in PhotoPlus and PhotoShop • Layers in Final Cut work in a similar fashion • Lets take some images from PhotoShop for use as different layers in FinalCut

  5. First, lets look at some still images in PhotoShop • Originally this photo 4288 pixels wide and 2848 pixels high • Below, we have modified the image size, to make it 720x576 • The result is a little distorted but good enough for now • We have saved it as a .psd file, called tree720x576.psd

  6. Another still image in PhotoShop • This file, justBart2.psd, contains Bart on a transparent background

  7. Clips derived from each still image in FinalCut • Clips derived from both .psd files in the Final Cut browser panel

  8. Clips derived from each still image in FinalCut • Clips derived from both .psd files in the Final Cut browser panel

  9. Putting the clips in the timeline • The photograph clip is in the timeline

  10. The second clip in a higher layer • The Bart clip, with a transparent background, is in a layer on top of the photo layer • The Bart clip is longer than the photo clip, so ...

  11. Matching the clip lengths • ... so we drag the right-hand end of the Bart clip, to ...

  12. Matching the clip lengths • ... to make it the same length as the photo layer • And, with the playhead at the last frame, we see Bart in front of the garden

  13. Tweening the opacity of the Bart layer • Choose the pen tool and ...

  14. Tweening the opacity of the Bart layer • ... and, placing a keyframe at the left end of the upper layer, • drag the opacity line down to 0%

  15. Tweening the opacity of the Bart layer • Also, place a keyframe at the right-hand end of the upper layer and • drag the opacity line up to ...

  16. Tweening the opacity of the Bart layer • ... drag the opacity line up to 100%

  17. Tweening the opacity of the Bart layer • Below, the sequence has been rendered and is being played • The playhead is roughly 25% into the sequence, so • ... the opacity of Bart is about 25% as well

  18. Tweening the opacity of the Bart layer • Below, the playhead is roughly 60% into the sequence, so • ... the opacity of Bart is about 60% as well

  19. Tweening the opacity of the Bart layer • Below, the playhead is at the end of the sequence, so • ... the opacity of Bart is about 100%

  20. Exporting this as a QuickTime movie • Let's export this sequence as a QuickTime movie, so • ... that we can see its effect live

  21. Exporting this as a QuickTime movie • The movie is called bartHauntingTheGarden.mov

  22. Seeing the effect of what we have done • Although the sequence was exported as a .mov file, the file has been recoded to a .flv file to make it more practical for use on the web • See it here http://www.cs.ucc.ie/j.bowen/cs2508/widgets/bartHauntingTheGarden.flv • Now, tackle Exercise 7 http://www.cs.ucc.ie/j.bowen/cs2508/exercises/exercise07/
