About Media
You should have a working understanding of Action media
and the relationship between media and surfaces to be successful
in using Action. Media has the following characteristics:
- Each
front and matte clip combination that you load from the Desktop is
called media.
- The
clips you load into Action are listed in the Media list.
- When
you first open Action, you load the front clip and matte clip
for the first media and a common back clip for all media.
- Media
must have a front and matte of the same resolution, but each media
can have a different resolution from the other.
- You
can work with front only or matte only media. In this case, the
empty front or matte is replaced with an internal white frame of
the same resolution.
- The
same media can be applied to multiple surfaces. Any cropping, blurring,
or recolouring that you apply to one instance of media is applied
to all the surfaces for that media. For example, if you blur media, all
of the surfaces using that media are blurred.
