Adding Filters and Motion Effects to Mixed-Format Sequences

You can add filters to nonmatching clips and adjust their motion parameters just as
you would in a native sequence. With the exception of different real-time processing
demands required by nonmatching clips, working with effects in a mixed-format
sequence is essentially the same as working with native sequence clips.

When adjusting parameters in the Motion tab of a sequence clip that has been scaled
to match your sequence, keep in mind that the clip already has adjusted motion
parameters that make the clip appear normal within the sequence. If you reset all of
the parameters in the Motion tab of the clip, the clip may not appear as you expect. In
this case, you can use the Scale to Sequence command to match the clip dimensions
and aspect ratio to the sequence. For more information, see “
