Transition Effects In IntelliPics Studio 3®


Here is some real magic for graphics such as photos. The Transform Tools on the IPS3 Authoring Toolbar and the picture properties settings combined with IntelliMation give you the power to have them fly in, spin, shrink or grow, open from a skinny line, and more!

You can't use the Transform Tools on movies, but you can use IntelliMation and adjust the size manually to create fly-in effects.

These are multi-step tricks, so the best way to learn them is by looking at some examples that already do each one, and then follow a tutorial. Here is a list of the Transition effects covered by the examples:

Transition Effects For Photos:
Spin and fly away Iris Open Iris Close
Expand From Center Expand From Side Open From Slant
Vanish From Center Photo Push Turn and Recede
For movies: Expand and fly in, play movie, shrink and fly away.

The tutorial, TransitionEffectsIPS3.PDF or TransitionsEffectsIPS3.doc (Word format), covers both the movie and photo transitions. TransitionsIPS3.zip includes the photo examples. MovieFly-in.zip has a fly in effect using an example movie.
