Tool Shed presets can be applied globally across any number of selected clips. The greatest
flexibility, however, comes in the option of User Splines. (You can read more about splines on
page 144 of the User manual). The User Splines window is empty, since we have not created
any, so let’s begin by clicking on the User Splines selection in the left column. We can now
highlight a clip in our project, and remember its attributes for re-use.
To continue our example, highlight the color-corrected clip we just modified (Clip-15.m2t) in the

If you have a nice clip motion you have created, or perhaps set up a colored border for a picture-
in-picture, all of this can be stored for one-click recall through Tool Shed.
Image Stabilization
Ok, so not every shoot goes as planned, and sometimes we have to ‘fix it in post’. One of
SpeedEDIT’s fast tools involves steadying jittery camera shots. Let’s see just how easy this can
be. Go to File > New and choose the first preset for NTSC DV and click OK and Discard changes

This opens a fresh project view in Standard Definition.
Load in \QuickStart\Footage\Clips\PlaneFlying.avi and
in the Tool Shed window, expand the Video category,
selecting Stabilize Video. While there are options that
are explained in the User Manual, let’s simply click
Perform.
In seconds, you are presented with an auto-zoomed,
quite smooth video that, if adjusted manually in the
Positioning window would take hours!
Cut to Music
As you know, when it comes to project construction, audio typically drives the video. For
documentary work, narration goes in first, with the video clips timed to match the spoken
punctuation. For music videos, clips are set by tempo and vocal track changes.
