How do I crop a frame in Premiere Pro CS6?

In FCP, you can crop a frame by going to wireframe and simply adjusting it to crop the image area you want to show. I want to maintain 16:9 but simple make the clip 'zoomed in' to an area that I want. It won't be too drastic of a crop. Does Premiere Pro have the ability to do this?

TIA,


Ken

    See if the Scale parameter of the Motion effect does the trick for you.  Every video clip has the Motion effect applied by default, but all the parameters are set so that the source clip remains unchanged until you explicitly modify the parameters.  Adobe calls Motion an "intrinsic" effect, in case you run across that term while searching.  Volume is an intrinsic effect of audio clips (or the audio portion of linked audio/video clips).

    I think I see that you are saying that I can go into the effects panel and look for 'scale.'? That makes sense and is probably exactly what I need. Thank You Jeff.
