SFilm EffectsThe Film Effects function adds a ﾒfilm lookﾓ to video. Selecting this function opens a dialog that gives you control over five parameters: Grain, Dirt & Dust, Scratches, Jitter and Stutter.The first three parameters have ranges of 1 ﾐ 20. The Jitter parameter has a range of 1 ﾐ 10. These parameters are arbitrary; experimentation will give you a feel for their effects.The Grain setting determines how much of a film grain effect is added. Increasing the Grain setting adds more grain spacially, and increases the depth of the grain added.The Dirt & Dust settings determines how many specks of dirt and dust are added to each frame. You can select dark specks, light specks or a mixture of the two.The Scratches settings determines the number and frequency of film scratches. As with the Dirt & Dust setting, you can select dark scratches, light scratches or a combination. The number you select determines both how often and for how long scratches will appear, but also how many scratches can appear simultaneously.With a setting of 1 ﾐ 5, only a single scratch will appear at any time. With a setting of 6 ﾐ 10, up to two scratches may appear. From 11 ﾐ 15 up to three scratches may appear, and from 16 ﾐ 20 up to four scratches may appear. The setting within each range determines how often and for how long scratches will appear. In all cases, the appearance, position and duration of scratches is set randomly. Once a scratch appears, it will move from side to side with natural motion. The Jitter settings let you introduce the slight vertical and/or horizontal jitter thatﾕs characteristic of film thatﾕs been transferred to video. You can choose the direction and amount of jitter, which will added randomly. As with scratches, jitter will move the image up and down and/or side to side smoothly and naturally.You can also choose to introduce a ﾒstutterﾓ to the output movie. The Stutter setting will cause MovieTools to repeat frames either one or two times, effectively reducing the frame rate of the original movie.For instance, with a 15 FPS background movie, selecting ﾒRepeat Once" will result in an output movie with an effective rate of 7.5 FPS (each frame is repeated once, with every other input frame thrown away), while selecting ﾒRepeat Twiceﾓ will result in an output movie with an effective rate of 5 FPS (each input frame is repeated twice, with two out of three input frames thrown away).You can also choose to convert a color movie to monochrome while the film effects are being added.MoviEffects will add the suffix ﾒ.Filmﾓ to the output movie as the default name.□□□□□□↵□□□□廖□u0□□□□↵□□□□□□□□□□□□□□↵□□□□□□□□□□
