As an experiment, try lengthening one of the clips on your timeline to about 10 seconds and apply your effect to that. Does that make a difference?

If not, apply the effect to a clip and then open the Applied Effects panel and Keyframe Controller area. Take a screen shot of the Keyframe Controller area showing your keyframes and share it with us.
