Play the 15-Finished sequence to see what you will create in this lesson.

This is the completed sequence from the appendix lessons "Working with Multiple Tracks" and "Creating Motion Effects." Motion parameters were changed on the dad about jimbo clips to resize and reposition them. By placing those clips on the V2 track, you can see the Jimbo surfing clips beneath them on the V1 track. Then the motion was animated to bring the clip on and off the screen. To recreate this sequence, follow the steps in those lessons.

In this lesson, you will learn how to add titles and other items to a sequence.
