Chapter 4, Setting Up Realtime Effects with Adobe Premiere Pro

Creating a sphere effect

The Matrox sphere effect lets you wrap your clip around a true 3D sphere with

shadow and highlight. The radius of the sphere, the position of the light, and the

progression from a flat 2D clip to a fully formed sphere are all keyframeable.

°To set up a Matrox sphere effect:

Sphere Settings

$ Progression Use this to set the progression for your sphere, where 0%

leaves your clip as a flat 2D image, and 100% creates a fully formed sphere.

$ Radius Use this to set the size of your sphere.

$ Transparency Sets the transparency of your clip, from opaque (0%) to

fully transparent (100%). If you’re performing a sphere transition, the

transparency level is applied to your initial image. For example, you can

set the transparency to 0% at the first frame and 100% at the last frame to

create a crossfade between your initial and final images.

$ Edge Softness Selects the amount of softness to apply to the edges of

your clip.

$ Show back face Select this option to show the back face of your sphere.

Clear this option if you’re applying transparency to your clip and you do

not want to see the back face of your clip through your sphere.
