LESSON 10
Putting Clips in Motion
A bounding box with a crosshair and handles appears around the clip (shown 
here) and activates the Motion effect in the Effect Controls panel. Clicking 
Motion or its Transform button in the Effect Controls panel will also activate 
the clip bounding box in the Program Monitor.
3
Click anywhere in the clip bounding box in the Program Monitor, drag this clip 
around, and note how the Position values in the Effect Controls panel change.
4
Drag the clip so its center is directly over the upper-left corner of the screen, 
and note that the Position values in the Effect Controls panel are 0, 0 (or close 
to that, depending on where you placed the center of the clip).
The lower-right corner of the screen is 1280, 720—the frame size of the 720p 
sequence setting used for this project.
