 Usually, before creating the animation, you want to make some modifications, for example setting the dimensions of the animation in order to have the right output size (resizing an animation, in PowerPoint for instance, should be avoided). To modify the animation you can use the different __filters__ provided by VirtualDub. Those needed in this context are:
-  * **Resize**: to change the dimensions of the animation (by predefined patterns or in a customized fashion). __NB__: some codecs require dimensions that are multiple of some quantity (2, 4, 16, etc...). To take this into account you can either select one of the "Codec-friendly" options in the filter manager or do it by hand using the Crop filter (see next point).

   * **Crop**: to crop figures (to get rid of undesired edges for instance, or to adjust the dimensions to match particular codec requirements).
   * **Logo**: to insert a logo in the animation.

 __Remark 3__: The Resize filter can also be used to obtain animations of the right size to be uploaded on [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4G1VzsYVgcOGWiUVIEnmJg|YouTube]] (avoiding in this way the automatic addition of black edges in order to compensate the difference between the dimensions of the uploaded video and those imposed by YouTube).
