Video
Video clips can be loaded from a variety of file formats, or captured in VideoPad. 2D and 3D video are both handled. By default, a video with audio will show as one clip in the clip bin, however the audio may be unlinked to use video and audio as separate clips.
Audio
Audio clips can be loaded from a variety of file formats, or narrated or recorded in VideoPad.
Title
Title clips are programmed animations that can be used as titles. Title clips are created from one of the templates and can be edited in clip preview.
Text
Text clips can be used for titles and credits. Text Tools like font, size, color, border color, alignment, etc. are all configurable. Text can be static, or scrolled using a motion effect.
Image
Image clips can be loaded from a variety of file formats, or created from snapshot of a sequence in the project. 2D and 3D images are both handled.
Blank
Blank clips can be used of video tracks between clips (e.g., for use in cuts or transitions), behind other clips (to change the background color), or above other clips (to obscure something). The color of a blank clip is configurable.
Sequence
A sequence is an arrangement of clips, however a sequence can also be placed on another sequence, by treating it as another type of clip.
Video or Audio Placeholder
Placeholder clips can be replaced by dragging and dropping the clip on the placeholder clip in the sequence or by selecting a clip in the bin and right-click on the placeholder and select the option "Replace with Selected Bin Clip".
Adding Animation from Express Animate
Animation from Express Animate can be added in your project as a new composition or existing composition, by selecting Home -> Add objects -> Add Animation from Express Animate.
Bin Clips and Track Clips
When first loaded or created, a clip will be placed in a clip bin. For a clip to appear in the final video, it must be added to a sequence.
Finding Clips
Once added to the project, you can locate clips by selecting Edit -> Find Clip...
Each time you press the Find Next button on the resulting dialog, the next clip in your project which matches all of the search criteria you have entered into the available fields will be selected.
You can leave fields blank if you do not wish to search for that condition.
