  • Titles that “flip up” in classic Disney style

    Posted by Anthony Atkielski on May 10, 2011 at 1:13 am

    Back in around the 1960s, lots of Disney film trailers had a way of “flipping up” the main file title in the trailer, as if it were folding forwards and upwards from nothingness. It was quite common among Disney trailers, whereas other studios didn’t seem to use it.

    (I’ve been googling around for an example but haven’t found one yet.)

    Is there a term of art for this type of title animation, and does Sony Vegas provide an easy way to do it? If there’s no easy way, is there a hard way? I know it’s old-fashioned; I’m interested specifically in its kind of G-rated, retro appeal (for those old enough to recognize it!).

    I think that 3D Track Motion can do what you want.
    John Rofrano’s 3D Track Motion: Changing the Pivot Point tutorial will probably come in handy as well.

    Unfortunately, Platinum doesn’t have 3D tracking, but your reply did lead me to some attempts with simple title animation and distortion, and that does seem to do the trick, or it will once I practice a bit. Thanks!
