Premiere Pro Rolling

So I have a long still image, as in vertically long, and I want to have the screen pan/scroll down to show the entire image; however, with the roll preset, it not not does that but starts over from the beggining.

So how can I achieve a scroll down affect from point A (on the image not black) to point B (on the image) without the thing going back to point A?

puh... I have to reoverthink your post, because I couldn´t figure out what you tried to say (sry I´m foreign).

Sry. You can´t move the "screen", but only move all items into the screens. A camera move is only possible in After Effects.

with the roll preset, it not not does that but starts over from the beggining.

Aha... The picture moves...but nothing blank comes up, but the image again?

So how can I achieve a scroll down affect from point A (on the image not black) to point B (on the image) without the thing going back to point A?

Don´t use roll. Think about the basic things and settings:

-Select your image ("click on the timeline on it")
-Open the effects control "window" (left to the preview monitor)
-At the top stands "motion". Click on it

The first parameters are for the postition and that is what you want. Click onto the clock to activate the keyframes for this parameters (you know what keyframes in effects are?)
-Move in the timeline where your picture reaches the final position.
-Edit the coordinates from the position in the effects control - motion section

Your image should now move to this position.

I recommend you to look at the whole motion section. It´s quite usefull for effects.

I have premier pro 2. >.< So I think the things you mention are in different locations.

Oh, and I am a bit confused on how to use keyframes to do this.

That doesn´t change the main editing progress. LOOK and search. It can´t be sooo much different.

Oh, and I am a bit confused on how to use keyframes to do this.

You see the effects controls in a window of a clip you´ve clicked on the timeline
You see the prameters of an effect (for example: blur strength)
Press the "watch" or little clock on the left to the parameters name
Change the parameter´s value (let´s call it Key A)
Move in the timeline
Change again the parameter´s value again (it´s Key B)

The blur strength moves and changes now from the value of Key A to the value of Key B.

You can set as much keyframes as you want in Pro. It´s basic stuff for good editing. If you still don´t understand it. Please check out the help file and experiment a bit with the programm.

Okay, thank you.
