How to pull off this effect???
Hay . I am new to the forum. I have been trying vegas pro 11 since it’s release. I would like to know how to create the following effect.
I have a white text on the screen with black background. I would like the text to get the color of a paint or ink when the paint is droped on to the text( The paint drop or paint flow is another clip ). For example if paint has color blue the text has to become color blue at those parts where the paint touches, at the exact time the paint touches it .
I know i could use the multiply composite mode to get the color of the upper paint drop track onto the underneath Text track . But the other parts outside the text will not be visible! I need all the text to be visible at all time. Can i use masks and multiple layers to achieve this?? Or is there another way??

‘Paint Dripping onto White Letters on Black BG’
One way to do it:First, create a video of paint dripping onto white paper (paper area represents final screen area) until area of letters is fully painted as desired.
Second, create Sony Vegas project as follows:
Tracks:
1 Letters track, compositing parent, track composite mode Multiply, White Letters on black bg
->2 Paint Dripping, compositing child, track composite mode Source Alpha
3 Paint Dripping, track composite mode Source Alpha, (white bg masked to alpha-level zero)On track 3, use composite level envelope to hide paint once it falls on letters (or, add a mask with keyframes in the pan/crop tool).
Use color corrector (secondary) to mask white bg to alpha-level zero:
-Insert color corrector (secondary) onto media, event, or track.
-On Custom tab, use ‘select effect range’ eyedropper to select white area.
-Set Alpha level to zero -
