Power Tools

Select a video on the timeline and then select the Power Tools button to perform a range of powerful functions, including:

  • Video in Reverse: when enabled on a selected video clip, it will play in backwards.
  • Video Crop: select this option to crop or zoom in on a specific portion of a video clip. Select the Crop Video button to define the area you want to zoom in on (crop). You can then customize motion on the cropped portion of video. See Magic Motion Designer for information on customizing the motion on the cropped section of video.
  • Video Speed: select this option to change the speed of a video clip. Slow-motion or fast-motion effects can grab your audience’s attention as well as break up the rhythm of a video. For an advanced slow motion effect, use the Slow motion video with frame interpolated technology option. Select Stretch audio (between 2X and 0.5X only) to stretch the audio to match the new video’s length. Deselect this option to mute the audio. You can also enter a new duration in New video length video to manually increase/reduce a video clip’s speed.
  • Video Rotation: use this function to rotate video up to 270 degrees in the clockwise direction.
