  • How Do I Make Scrolling Backgrounds?

    Posted by Julian Tang on September 13, 2026 at 2:38 am

    Hey there! This question is probably better suited for art programs but how do I make scrolling backgrounds that can loop seamlessly in Vegas Pro? And is it possible to make one entirely within it?

    Hey!

    Yeah, you can actually do this entirely in VEGAS. For a simple scrolling background, make the background larger than your project frame and use Track Motion or Pan/Crop to slowly move it across the screen.

    For a seamless loop, the easiest method is to duplicate the background and place the copies side-by-side (or vertically), then animate their position so the second copy takes over exactly as the first one leaves the frame. Once the movement is set up, you can repeat the animation for as long as you need.
