    Can anyone help with a question about crawling type?
    I am trying to create a really long ticker tape style crawling title, left to right over a graphic at the bottom of the screen, as if in a news report item.

    I have created it and it works, but I need it to be really long.
    I can’t find a way to make it long enough.

    Any help would be great,

    Thanks.

    Use Marque!
    The Avid standard Title crawl is limited to 4 pages in HD 1080 and 11 pages in SD.

    Either try creating multiple Title Effects to support more than 4/11 pages (I wonder what happens when you switch project to SD to create titles, then switch back to HD…) or use NewBlue Titler Pro and see if it can so what you are looking for.
