Hello,

While I was surfing the youtube, I found a nice video tut. effect for premier pro :

Is there similar effect for PD14 ?

You can simulate the strobe effect usings a white color board in Powerdirector.

Put the white color board on track2 and the video on track1, set the durations of the white color board to set the durations of the flash.

I set the duration to 3 frames on a 30 fps video.

See the attachments.

Thank you Carl312 for your reply.

I wish there was a video exchange between 2 videos with strobe effect not only white strobe.

My request is not the white strobe but the changing between the 2 vidoes, see youtube video above at: 1:48 min. and forward.

Regards

Thank you jcardana for your reply.

I have seen the video because I am following the (PowerDirector University Chanel) but that takes a lot of time comparing with strobe effect in Premier Pro.

Hi Yousefz -

With all those great alpha transitions you've made, have you ever played around with the shift progression keyframes? You can set them to "flicker" between one clip & the next.

In this little sampler video, some are just transitions & some have a white colour board overlay (with flickering keyframes too)... shown in the screenshot below.

(you might recognise the first two clips!)

You can grab these from DirectorZone to see how the keyframes are set...
