Chapter 1 Orientation 43

The Project Pane

When media (such as movies, images, and image sequences) is brought into Motion, it

becomes an object in a layer. Shapes, text, and masks created within Motion also

become objects in a layer. Any imported media is added to the Media tab, which acts

as a sort of storage unit for your media. Shapes, text, and other objects created within

Motion are not added to the Media tab.

On import, objects can be added to an existing layer, or you can create a new layer for

the objects.

You can apply behaviors, transformations, filters, masks, or blend modes to any object

in a layer. You can also apply behaviors, transformations, filters, masks, or blend modes

to the layer itself. You can have as many objects in a single layer as you want—a layer

acts as the “parent” of its objects (movies, images, image sequences, shapes, and so

on). For example, if you move a layer, all objects within that layer are also moved. If

you apply a behavior or filter to a layer, that behavior or filter is applied to all objects

within the layer as a “nest.” The size of a layer is determined by the objects contained

within the layer.

You can view and organize all layers and objects within a project in the Project pane.

This section provides a general overview of the Project pane, but mainly focuses on the

Layers tab of the Project pane in which most of your compositing takes place.

The Project pane contains lists of all media and objects in your project, as well as the

effects applied to those objects.

To display the Project pane, do one of the following:

In the Toolbar, click the Project icon.
