Hello,

I started using Vegas a few weeks ago. And I'm making some simple greenscreen video clips. But I want some motion backgrounds. Not fractal art, but abstract shapes. I do not want to pay for it, so is there a posibility that I can make them by myself?

Greetings Aottens.

Film coloured light on water out of focus, add some food colouring.Close up of a food blender and slo mo it.Out of focus leaves. Water down pug hole.Cigarette smoke or better still, burning leaves at this time of year..Point camera out of car window onto trees and sun.Then play around with them all in Vegas.

...Oh! and...Point your camera at its own output on a monitor to generate some howlround and record that.

Thank you for the ideas, I'm sure I am going to try this.

Experiment with Vegas Generated Media using the keyframe timeline to adjust over time. This will impart motion and give that all important motion. And yes slap on some slo-mo and blur. You can make some truly beautiful motion backgrounds to use and re-use.

Once you get this far it is only a small step towards putting wards and clients name's into the backgrounds too.

Lots to do here!
