Bogart SE 5 User manual
do not dispose of all functions. Complete functionality is only
available in the Gold Edition). There you see the middle frame
of the transition effect (e.g. 1 second effect = image 12 or 2
second effect = image 24).
The video image is superimposed by an operating panel in
which you can see the effect options (if available) on the right
side. On the left side you see the button ‘Frame’ below the ef-
fect name. You can use this button to specify the point in time
of the transition effect you want to see. In this way you can ob-
serve the applied effect at any point in time of the scene. The
button does not have to be confirmed - you can scroll slowly
through this part of the scene and view it at the same time.
The button ‘Display’ below allows you to select from different
display modes, which can help you to check an effect more
precisely. Depending on the selected effect, it may be useful
to change the display mode. ‘Original’ (shows the just selected
new scene). The ‘Effect’ setting allows you to see the scene
for the time only relevant to the effect chosen. ‘Orig. + Effect’
splits the scene display vertically and shows one scene half as
the original and the other with the chosen effect. ‘Compare’
halves the image, with the right screen half showing your new
scene and the left any scene that you can choose using the
‘Choose scene’ button (below) from the edit bin. The compare
function can therefore be used to adapt the color tone of your
scene to an already present scene.
‘O+E center’, unlike ‘Orig. + Effect’, always compares the
centre part of a scene, on the left the original and on the right
together with the effect. This comparison type is suitable for
effects that appear mostly in the centre of an image.
The ‘O+E small’ display type shows you the complete original
scene (at transitions, the left scene) smaller in the left preview
screen. Next to it, on the right, you can see the same scene,
with the effect. This display type shows you miniature versions
of the scenes. However, remember you can’t see fine details
in this fashion, as opposed to larger effect previews. It can be
very useful for image processing effects, comparing the origi-
nal and the effect scene with each other.
‘C center’ has a preview style comparable to ‘Compare’, but in
this case, the centre part of the scene is focussed on, as the
most important part of the scene is often found in the centre.
For example, if you want to apply an image processing effect
such as Color Correction in order to adapt that scene’s color
tone to other scenes, a comparison in full size is a good solu-
tion.
‘C small’ = If however, you are fine working with a smaller
preview, you can switch it to small. This simply allows you to
compare the scene with the effect as a whole, yet in smaller
preview screens.
Tip: It is recommended to switch back and forth between the
different modes while working on the effects. This way, you can
experience the scene in its completeness. You can also change
the effect options to directly compare different colors or direc-
tions. Here you’ll also get a real-time preview, too. Therefore
the selection of the sliders does not have to be confirmed.
In the top left corner of the menu you will find a button with
which you can play a small preview. This will give you the abil-
ity to see the effect of your settings, which you have had so far
to assess in a single image, in a real-time preview.
The settings made in this menu are confirmed with ‘OK’ and
you are returned to the Effect menu. With ‘Cancel’ you leave
the ‘Full Size’ menu without saving any changes. The arrow
buttons serve to move the single-image menu to the top edge
of the screen.
(11) If the inserted effect shows a symbol outlined in red, then
it must be created. When you click on the ‘Create’ button a
screen appears in which the course of the effect can be seen
as it is created. After the creation is completed, the symbol’s
outline is blue.
(12) If your system supports the function ‘scene’ you can make
use of the multi-layer technique. In the Basic Edition, there is
only a limited functionality for the creation of a scene. If you
want to overlap several transition effects, you at first add one
effect between two scenes and create it. Then you create a
single scene from the two scenes and the inserted effect. To
do this you click on the ‘Scene’ button so that a window ap-
pears in which you can select the range for the new scene.
