    [Graham Bernard] “Did you have a look at Vegas ProTypeTitler?”

    I looked at it, but I don’t know how it works.

    I know EVERYTHING about it and that’s why I got NewBlueTitler Pro. Anyhoooo, I like a challenge so I’ll have a go too.

    Neah . . PTT and T&T don’t have the Typewriter Animation we want. But New Blue Titler Pro does! Wanna link, to demo it?

    Here’s my Quick n Dirty of NBTP6 doing exactly what you’re after – Letter by Letter and then a Carriage Return at end of Line:

    I just need a tutorial or a downloadable template or something to get what I need.

    Sure, but…is that a plugin or a separate program? Would I have to render the video twice?

    [Ben Albright] “Sure, but…is that a plugin or a separate program? “

    If you’re referring to the NewBlue Titler Pro (NBTP) then it is both. It’s both a Plugin into Vegas Pro AND a separate standalone program. Why? Why are you asking? Have you looked at their website yet? Be warned, it’s not a cheap Plugin. You have to be sure you want to buy it. Now, there maybe other cheaper plugins. Up to you.

    [Ben Albright] “Would I have to render the video twice?”

    No.

    I know, and I have the trial installed. Can you give me a tutorial on how to do that effect?

    There are a ton of them, but whilst you are looking do have a look at the Vegas ProType Titler Plugin, again. And see if that will be flexible enough over the various options you are wanting. Notice that he appears/seems to add a carriage return which may set what happens next in stone and not be flexible enough for you. Your decision.

    And here’s another one, again, using Vegas ProType Titler. It will require your full attention and concentration, and be sure you will get the flexibility you’re wanting for all of your Project:

    So, up to you. NewBlue Titler Pro provides great flexibility for changes. Vegas ProType Titler may just give you what you want and for this project of yours. Only you will be able to decide.

    As an alternative you could do it manually with a mask. It might take a few minutes. The mask needs to reveal each letter (of the complete title) by moving the mask using Pan/Crop with animated Hold keyframes .

    If you want to do each line using the same Title clip the mask would need to be stepped for each line. A png file with transparent background is required for the mask. The mask needs to be on a mask track as a parent to your title clip on a child track. At least that’s my experience with VMS but I assume Pro is similar.

    [Eric Clinch] “If you want to do each line using the same Title clip the mask would need to be stepped for each line.”

    Eric, that is an idea, but if you look at Ben’s “sampled” project it’s heavily dependant on many changes and in my opinion would be introducing a lot of complexity, only my opinion. Also his Post title asks for Line by Line, when in actual fact he was ultimately wanting a TypeWriter effect, which is, really Letter by Letter. That took some time to communicate ????.

    Hopefully Ben has now seen the Vegas ProType Titler YouTube links and can get along with those.
