4 Create a Headline Banner

Creating a headline banner is an effective way to add a sense of professional to your content, whether it’s for a workshop or a classroom. To accomplish this:

1. In the Source dock, click the + button and create a ‘Color Source’
2. At first, the Color Source will be covering the entire Program window. To fix this, hold the Shift key and drag the top middle handle of the Color Source down to the lower part of your Preview window.
3. Bring the Color Source to the top of the Sources list, if it is not yet there. You can either drag and drop the Color Source to the top of the list, or right click, select Order, and Move to Top
4. Select the Color Source
5. Click on Filters above the Sources Dock
6. In the FIiters Window, click the “+” to create a new Filter
7. Select the Color Correction Filter
8. Change the Opacity to 50
9. Click Close to exit the Filters Window

You will now notice your Color Source is slightly transparent.
