Adding video effects 
There are several methods available for applying effects to video. Video plug-ins can be applied to tracks, video events, source 
media files (via the Project Media window), or to the entire video project. 
Tips: 
•   To apply a preset without displaying the Video FX dialog, hold the Shift key while dragging a preset from the Video FX window to a 
track header, event, or the Video Preview window. 
•   To move effect controls in fine increments, hold Ctrl while dragging the control.
