DSK layers offer a lot of creative possibilities. You might use DSK channels to display a permanent station ID
‘bug’, superimpose a company logo onto a title page, perhaps to add a ‘spinning globe’ animation playing in
the DDR to a lower-third, ‘frame’ a keyed source composed over a title (Figure 109), or set up many other
elaborate effects in this manner.
9.7.2 BACKGROUND CONTROLS
FIGURE 110
BACKGROUND TRANSITION GROUP
Transition controls in this section apply to the Background video layer only. In most respects, these tools are
identical to the DSK transition controls discussed earlier, but there is one difference worth mentioning.
FIGURE 111
The Duration menu for the Background transition offers
two items not included in the similar DSK/KEY controls:
Reverse configures the current transition to run
in reverse direction the next time it is applied.
Ping Pong when enabled, this option causes the
direction of the transition to be automatically
swapped after each time it is applied.
