Clock wipe transition in Vegas Pro 13

[Hiran De silva]

That’s it!
Track Motion is new to me. I’ll look it up. Thanks for your help.

Aha. I got it to work with Track Motion (instead of Pan/Crop).

But there’s one problem with this. Track Motion applies to the whole track – not just the clip. I expect to have several of these ‘call outs’ on one track and they could be anywhere on the canvas. So ideally, I’d want to be applying the transition to a clip, rather than the whole track.

So, I’m still looking.

I still think Pan/Crop should give me what I want (common sense), if only I knew what box I’m ticking that is making the animation centre the centre of the canvas rather than the centre of the image/clip.

Yes, yes indeed. OK, and this gets back to my idea of rendering an ALPHA channel Callout soooo you could reuse and reuse and so on, placing it where you’d want.

Only use Track Motion to purely Generate your Callout, remove the TM and then move on.

This way you can Roll yer Own, but also reuse them!

I’m stuck t understanding what ‘ my idea of rendering an ALPHA channel Callout ‘ means. Can you explain?

At the moment, I draw the circle(s) on my iPad Pro with Apple Pencil, with transparent background and use it on my timeline.

Ah, I think I get it.
You mean, instead of having static images of the call outs with Transparent background in my call outs ‘library’ … create a library of animated video clips. Right?
Sorry, my brain wasn’t seeing that …
Good plan!
I’ll do that.

Correctomundo!
