Video Transcript

"This is C.J. South representing expertvillage.com. In this clip I will finish up talking about using the filter controls. Now you also have the clip control. All right and that is in this bump mat filter here. Now the clip control which is right here, this map image, you can use the image from one clip in a filter to change another clip. So you can drag any clip from your sequence to this control to apply it to the filter. So let me show you how that works here. Let's say and I'll use my selection tool, just going to go ahead and just drag this clip and drop it right here in the clip control. I can see the picture turns into now the picture of that house I just put in there and you notice too on the canvas you got some slight color changes. Basically you are telling this picture to adopt traits from this other picture. So by adjusting your aluminas scale you change how bright it is when it is showing through. You can change the direction where it is going and let's see that moved. You also have your outset here. So you have different repeat edges. You have different things. It's just taking on traits of that picture behind it mostly the aluminas. You can just right click and click clear to get rid of it. It is really as simple as that. I'm going to get rid of that. You notice there is no bump map it is kind of no image there and the canvas here is a white circle. My aluminas scale is pumped all the way up. So go ahead and just deselect that. Those are all the really different types of files and things and different parameters that you will come across when using filters. So as long as you can master those, you will be all right. I guess I really didn't show you the drop downs. You are pretty familiar with these. We will leave these as an unspoken. "
