Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0

Stop and start a stop-motion capture

If you need to stop work while capturing stop-motion video from videotape, you can continue it at another time, by matching the first frame of the continuation with the last frame shot in the previous session.

  1. Click Get Media in the Media view of the Tasks panel, and then click Stop Motion .
  2. Drag the still image captured last in the previous session from Project view into the preview pane of the Capture panel.

    The last frame is superimposed on the current video source in the Capture panel, making it easy to align an object with its last image. When you click Grab Frame to start the new session, the newly captured frame is numbered sequentially from the number of the last captured frame.
