Sony Vegas and Media Studio Yep, I know they're not related, but they both fall in the Premiere Alternative bracket in my humble opinion! Post here for Ulead Media Studio or Vegas video problems or pointers...

Default Typing effect in Sony Vegas 6.0

i want to input some text in a movie but i want the text to do the typing motion when shown.

to give a better example: like in war movies, they will show in a corner of the movie the time and mission name. it will be type in. like a typewritter motion.

There's probably some kind of set effect. But think about it logically. All you need to do is create a squence of titles and place them next to each other:

t
th
the
the
the e
the em
the emp
the empi
the empir
the empire

Now if you placed all the above as a sequence, you see "the empire" being spelt on screen.

Hi,

Have your project on the time line then add another video track above, then go to - Media Generators - Credit Roles - and try the Timed Wipe In/Out, on black. You can edit opacity, colour, font etc

This would do what your after, you might have to play with it for a while.

Hope this helps,

Gordon

Have a real good nosey around the Vasst site. There is some valuable stuff kinda hidden away in there, you sometimes just have to hunt for it.

Good luck, and do keep us posted!
