Blender Video Editor: How to move a picture or movie from place a to place b and capture the movement into the video?

Question

Let's say I want to move a picture in the Video Editor from place a to b, over 100 frames. A way to do this is to create 100 pictures and adjust the coordinates of each one in each frame. It's gonna take forever! and 100 frames are very few! Can I automate it?

Yes, keyframes will allow you can automate your goal.

Select regular strip. Add a Menu/Effect Strip/Transform strip to a regular video/image strip. Select new transform strip.

Keyframe the position. Frame 1.

In the image above the mouse was used the to get the [Insert Keyframe] menu option.

Next a second keyframe on frame 100. Yellow indicates key frame.

Next Blender places the images on frames 2-99 via interpolation.

There are tutorial resources here a blender.stackexchange and other video websites.
