128 7. Effects

Transition Effects

Transitions are the visual effects that occur as one slide ends and the next
slide begins. Every slide in ProShow has one. It doesn’t matter whether it’s
the first slide in the show or the last – at the end of each slide, there is
always a transition effect.
Transitions help define the pacing, as well as the visual appearance of your
slideshow. For a slower paced show, you'll use longer transition times and
simple blending effects. For a faster paced show, you'll use shorter
transition times with more energetic effects.

Motion Effects
Motion effects of course are the assorted ways that you can move any
individual layer within a slide around the screen. You can Pan a layer from
one side to the other. You can Zoom in or out, or you can Rotate a layer.
These basic effects work for any layer, including images, videos and
captions. With images and videos, you can also choose to Tilt a layer and
add motion that creates a 3D/perspective feel.
Motion effects always begin and end within each slide. As a result, they are
also affected by your Slide Time. When you have a less time, the motion
will happen more quickly. With longer Slide Times, the motion will be
slower.
