Freeze
Im trying to make the last part of the movie freeze but also as its freezed I want to text in it.
I tried to snapshot the last part of the movie, and then attaching it as an image to the timeline. The thing is I cant make my Text media work on the image only on the avi. files.

Use the velocity envelope to freeze the last
part of your movie.
After you apply that envelope you simply create two
points at the part you want the freeze to happen, then
on the second point you set to 0…Now when the playback
reaches that frame it freezes for the rest of the clip duration.
You can even prolong the freeze by just dragging the edge of
the clip out a bit further.Steve Rhoden

Steves is probably the best way to do it but I have used your way many times. Take a snapshot of the last frame and place it at the end. There is no reason that you should not be able to superimpose text on that “still” the same way that you do on video. Add it to the track ABOVE.

The thing is….When you use the snapshot method Terry,
you loose Resolution.Steve Rhoden

You can also snip the last frame off the end, right click it and select Create Subclip. Then you can just drag the edge to “loop” that single frame over and over.
Also, if you click the Snapshot button in the Preview window when the quality is set to Best, you get a pixel perfect frame without losing resolution, as far as I can tell. Either or… whatever works!

Film editing is now something almost everyone can do at a simple level and enjoy it, but to take it to a higher level requires the same dedication and persistence that any art form does.

Hi,
Does this solution work in VMSP 9.0?
Thanks,
Marcus
