In this lecture we are going to see how to replace videos in the time line by other videos or images.
Now sometimes you have watched all your video and you have put some effects here you are very happy
from them to not just there on that you don't want to use that video you want to use another video.
And if you bring the other video for example and drop it in copier effects you might make mistakes and
maybe the mistakes can be keyframes or whatever you want you know something will go wrong.
To make sure that you are replacing one video by another without making any changes at all except the
video itself.
What you do is very easy.
First of all you come to your layer you select your layer you go to your project panel here and select
the video that you want to put in the timeline down there you press alt or command on the apple and
you click and drag and you drop it on the highlighted layer.
Immediately the video will change and not just that only the video and all the effects are that you
will replace the two video just in that instance.
Why this is very important and very useful.
First of all if you're doing templates you would have created a template for certain let's say transitions
for videos and you want to change these videos or you want to sell your templates and you want to put
this more Mark.
This is where you change your videos and this will be the best way for you to replace your videos without
having to do any work or any cut and paste the same thing works for images.
Let's take this image not is the size of this image is very big albeit a smaller one.
This one 19:20 by well.
And we get to create a new composition.
Now I have the image here.
Imagine of that transition you can you know put any transition that you want here and we want to replace
that image.
Let's add the transition here.
For example we go to the sort we have seen these things already in the course we pick any one of them
just for the demonstration.
And here you are do you have at your transition coming in.
Now you don't want that image you want another image of that having worked on your transitions you made
it perfect.
You want to change it to the next image which is for example this one to preserve all the animation
and the keyframes and the effects that you have done here you will do the same in your panel.
You click on the image you press alt command if you are on the map and you drag and drop it on the layer
that you have highlighted already inside your camp area.
It has changed completely.
But still the image or the transition is still there.
Here you are.
That's pretty good.
You can also take this one.
This is in 1920 by 14:14.
If I press art commands on the Apple drag and drop it has changed.
But yet all the animation and all the transition is still there.
You can replace images with videos by using the same method.
Let's say I select my image here.
This is a jpeg.
I'll highlight lights for example press alt drag and drop.
And here you are of course here we have some problems with the dimensions because light is very small.
If I play it still it is here now.
Unfortunately it has not taken the same size.
So you need to work it out here.
For example you come to the lights transform and see fit to come up with and maybe it will work into
it.
Now we can do the same replace the video with the image if I press on the net I can drop it in and it
will replace it.
Now that's the way to work.
Use alt drag and drop by highlighting the two elements the one in decomposition and the one in your
project.
And you can replace them very easily.
So thanks very much for listening.
This is a very useful tape and you will use it a lot when you are creating templates.
I'll see you in the next lecture.
