Mediastations/Modules

• Creating a Mediastatio and Linking it to a Scene

To create a mediastation/module click on image:flower-symbol. and pose it on in your vspace-diagramm. Link this mediastation to the respective scene by creating a ModuleLink in the scene. Connect the module to the ModuleLink by the Link-procedure Link Module.(This works analogus to the linking scene-procedures)

• The Module

Double Click on the module-symbole in your diagramm to open the module. You have free columns one for Slides, Branching Points and Sequences.

• Slides

The Slides are the central pieces for every Mediastation. To add one to your module click on the „plus“-button in the slide-column. With slides you can

1. add images, texts and subtitles
2. rescale images (which is neccessary most of the time)
3. give an order to these images, texts and subtitles

• add an image

1. make sure that it has a proper resultion (if you rescale your image to ca. 1024×640 VSpaces can manage the data easily) and format (the image has to be either grayscale or RGB- CYMK DOES NOT WORK! You can change that in photoshop with 3 clicks or so)
2. now open the image-management (pic)
3. click on the add image-button and enter the metadata you have for your picture
4. to add the image to your slide click on the „add-image“button, select localimage
5. drag and drop your image from the image-management to the slide

• add texts

1. add a text to the by the add-text-button
2. enter your text by clicking on the text-field
