  1. Hi digartal Thank you for your comments and assistance. I'm really excited about all the features PTE offers, and very much looking forward to learning how to apply the many effects available. For sure I will need to stick at it, and I will be watching the tutorials. Regards Joe
  2. Hi macian Yes, I've found the Barry Beckham tutorials, thank you. It was watching his "How It All Works" presentation that I decided to buy PTE AV Studio 11 in the first place. I intend to buckle down and work my way through his tutorials in due course to gain a proper understanding of the application. Thank you davegee for your further clarifications. Nothing about maths, numbers, or values appeals to me!! Thanks to the kind help of yourself and Jill, I now understand at least the principle of what I need to do. The practice needs a lot of polishing, for sure, but I'm confident that now at least I'm heading in the right direction! I'm very pleased with PTE AV Studio 11, and even more pleased to discover there's an active forum with many knowledgeable users who are prepared to offer help and encouragement to newbies. I hope you will continue to assist me the next time I have beginner's questions - of which I'm sure there will be many! Thank you to everyone Joe
  3. Hi Jill Thanks very much for your helpful clarification - and your assurance that I don't need a Maths degree! I've been fumbling around in the O&A screen and have made some progress in understanding the pan and zoom technique. Is there any way to use the mouse-wheel to zoom the image in and out? And could I ask again about the "Ken Burns" option. When I've added the required 8 images, I still don't see any options. The effect just plays through all its different directions - directions of pan that i now see can be applied in the O&A screen with keyframes. What then is the point of the "Ken Burns" option? Am i missing something? Thanking you for your time and help Joe
  4. Hi davegee Thank you for your fast answer to my questions. I'm very glad to discover that the effects I wish to create are achievable. It seems to come down to gaining an understanding of Key Frames - a subject which i can see has much depth and which will take me some time to work through! Please could you explain in a little more detail the animation pan properties "X" "Y" and "Z"? They seem very...mathematical! Is there an easier way to preview and control what they do? Thank you again for your time Kind Regards Joe99
  5. Hi to all you PTE Audio-Visual experts I’m desperately hoping you can help me! I’ve just bought AV Studio 11 Pro, and am impressed with the wealth of options and opportunities for creative film-making on offer. My own personal style of show requires above all else the use of multi-directional long and slow pan and zoom. I’ve found the options Studio 11 offers, but I’m confused and frustrated at the lack of control I seem to have over them. Previous to PTE AV Studio 11 Pro I had been using Pro Show Gold, which gave me full and easy control over the directions of my pan and zooms, including diagonal pans, and also, most importantly, over which parts of the individual image I could apply these pan and zooms to. The standard pan in AV Studio seems to choose its own idea of which part of the image is moved. I need to be able to choose myself which part of the image is panned and zoomed – this is crucial for me. How do I do this please? The “standard” options in PTE AV Studio also seem to give me no choice over direction – apart from left-right, right-left, and up-down. Are diagonal pans not possible? In addition, I see the “Kens Burns effect” is available in Options, but I’ve been unable to access the different styles, and haven’t got a clue as to how to choose, configure, and apply them. How can I preview and use these effects please? I’m a relative newcomer to the world of audio-visual presentations and have little technical knowledge. The Online Help does not have a section with clear and simple directions, and I can’t find any dedicated online tutorials about the “camera movement” problems mentioned above. I would be very grateful for any help anyone can give me so that I can begin to enjoy my new software and get creative! Thanking you all very much for your time Joe99
