    Is it possible to do a split screen in Vegas? I only see the ability to do split screen previews? I want 2 video images side by side like two people on the phone talking to each other. one on each side of the screen with a black bar down the middle dividing them.

    If your footage is already framed correctly:

    Track 1 in Compositing Mode>Mask: Split Screen Media from Media Generators>Checkerboard with Mask Generator FX applied

    Track 2 (made compositing child to track 1): Video 1 (on left)

    Track 3: Video 2 (on right)

    You could also use Track Motion, posiibly with Pan/crop to reposition yur video anywhere you want.

    The black bar can be made from generated media or created in a paint program with a transparent background.

    In the most recent issue of my newsletter, I present multiple ways to do a splitscreen. Just check the link below my name.
