In this lesson, Kevin P McAuliffe starts the first of a multi-part lesson on creating Motion Effects, and starts out by creating them the easiest, but not necessarily the most obvious way, and that is via the Motion Effect command. This command, accessible only when the preview monitor or clip is selected will get you creating slow-mo or timelapse shots quickly and easily!
