"Oscilations" from StylePack 3


 This tutorial was written originally  in Producer 5, so the menus may look a bit different than in the newer versions. But the instructions are still the same.

This style starts with a decorative caption that appears in a white circle. I would like to use this style as is, but without the introductory caption.


These instructions will guide you on how to change the style, so that if you remove the part of the text and the circle, all the other layers will start at the beginning of the slide.


We start by removing the captions and the first three layers that are forming the circle in the middle. We are now left with only 20 layers.

First and foremost, let's change the transitions times of this slide to 0 sec. (before and after), so that  we can better see the timings. You can put them back afterwards.

Now, select layer 5 which is named "Landscape Image 4".
In Motion Effects, drag keyframe 1 to the left, to the very beginning of the slide.
Right click on this keyframe (kf 1) and choose "Add/Remove time from keyframe"
Write a NEGATIVE value of 1.5 sec (that is - 1.5) and press OK

Voila !
All the layers now start at the beginning of the slide !!! Your slide has now a duration of 10.5 seconds, instead of the original 12.

You can now put back those 3 sec. transitions.
