‫In the previous two sections, you've learned that using the stretch where we time the layer, it will
‫slow it down or speed it up, but then it affects the whole layer.
‫This layer being a video or a pre composition of motion graphics, whatever, it will affect the whole
‫layer.
‫But from time to time you don't want to do that.
‫You want to speed up and stretch a layer, but you want to keep a certain region of the layer intact.
‫It means it remains at the same speed.
‫Your options were.
‫You come, for example, over here and you decide from 20 frames to 2 seconds.
‫I wanted always to remain at the same speed.
‫So the solution will be now is of course, to split the layer, that's one and split it again at two.
‫Then we timed this portion.
‫Here you are.
‫And then every time this portion and adjust them.
‫And most of the time, it's very hard work.
‫But now in CC 2019, you have a readymade solution.
‫You can take a region or a certain area from a layer, be it a video layer or a pre composition and
‫protected against re timing, not time remap.
‫Just re timing it through the stretch.
‫Let me give you an example.
‫Let's say from 20 frames to 2 seconds here.
‫I want this area to be protected.
‫So if I return this layer, this region from 20 frames to 2 seconds will not be returned, meaning it
‫will not speed up or slow down.
‫How do you do that?
‫The first way is to use the work area.
‫If you come to composition now, you have a new option is the responsive design time.
‫You can create intro outro.
‫Now we are working on create protected region from work area.
‫Well, it makes sense that I will limit the work area for where I want the region not to be timed and
‫then come to this option.
‫So I come over here.
‫I put the beginning of the work area.
‫Go to 2 seconds.
‫I'll put the end of the work area.
‫That's B and N, I hope you remember.
‫Then if you are right click on the work area, you have a false option.
‫Now create protected region from work area.
‫Here you are.
‫So actually what it did, it created markers.
‫You see, this is a marker and it has the protected region checked.
‫This is the new option, responsive design time.
‫This is a protected region.
‫So this area now is protected.
‫I will go back to the same work area.
‫Now how to use this.
‫First of all, you play compose, but not from here.
‫If you play compose from here, the markers will stay in this composition and the protected area will
‫be in this composition.
‫The way to do it is to create a new composition.
‫And this one mean is 1280 by 720, and I'll make it 10 seconds.
‫The video.
‫Here is 5 seconds.
‫Go back to Maine and then I would take photographer the preamp and drop it inside me.
‫Now notice you can see the protected area.
‫It's blue.
‫If you play, nothing has happened yet.
‫Okay, we didn't stretch you there.
‫It has normal speed.
‫Let's slow down the layer at 200%.
‫Here you are.
‫Now the player is a pre comp.
‫Okay, guys, now you notice the region on the left of the protected area, the blue one has been stretched
‫and of course it's slower.
‫And the area after the blue region also has stretched.
‫But the region itself, the blue one, did not stretch, did not move.
‫It stayed on the same time.
‫If you play your video now, you will notice is very slow, then goes normal speed and slows down.
‫Let's change the speed to 50%, it would be more visible and I'll click okay.
‫Now notice the area before has become quite speedy and the area after has become quite speedy.
‫Let's select the output and put the work area here and then if you play notice, slow, normal or in
‫fact speedy, slow, normal.
‫So this is one method to create responsive design using the work area.
