In this movie, we'll take a look at how we can use stereo panning to create motion within our sound effects, giving them space to work. Now, these two "whoosh" files we made for the "gluteus maximus" text are emphasizing lateral movement across the screen. So we can apply either clip-based panning or track-based panning for both of these sound effects to move the sound along with the image from right to left or from left to right. Let's take a look at this first one, and let's see which direction the text is running.
