March 19, 2009 at 5:39 pm in reply to: Vegas text effects tutorials? I have a sample video of what I want…And Brad? You have much work in front of you. The sample you gave was done by an individual who knows their way around a s/w suit that has propably taken months if not years to master. So, my friend, good luck!
And yes
* Protype Titler for the text
* 3-D multi track track motion for the Stills/Video Media
I charge handsomely for this work – so should you.

Tyson – good question. Extremely good question.
Here’s a few parameters to consider and then “mix-it-up” for your own pudding.:
* Firstly – Without a decent enough Frame rate we can’t get an idea of what is happening. Now, for many people who do very simple/quick cuts/edits and few FX-ing and compositing, the minimal on a fast or even less than fast laptop will get ’em through. And at present my option comes in at 128mb. You can check this under your preferences. I’ve had mine up to the full 1000 whack. And there is the limit as to what version of VEgas you have, that will access more than 3gb(?).
* Secondly – What are you setting your Preview “Quality” to? The higher the quality the MORE RAM for Ram Preview you’ll need. Soooo… Less quality Preview gives you more Timeline. More Quality Preview gives you LESS timeline Preview.
* Thirdly – Consider doing pre-renders. I use them and NOW use extensively a script by Gilles aka “Rosebud” that has developed a superb lil script for producing prerends on the fly – love it!
* Fourth(ly?) – Remove and stand down any unnecessary Motion Blur or Track Fx-ing.
What i would like is VEgas to view what I am doing, make an audit of my RAM and CPU and Cache and decide WHAT I can do to get slippery Previews. Almost like an “Automatic” gearbox! Now THAT would be real neat!
But, to date what we have are the the options above. Meaning for me a variation of RAM from 16mb up to the max and adjusting quality, so, there you have it.

No, that is very odd. You SHOULD be able to import projects created in previous versions into a HIGHER release number. Very odd. If this WAS the case, there would be a major outcry AND a veritable resistance to upgrading!

Are you saving within the Vegas Preset section? Just under what would be the “chain”? If this is the case then what I need to do is to write an actual name for the Preset – eg: GB_Plane_1a and if I make some further tweaks to it I can can call it GB_Plane_2a. When I do this I can call back each Preset and I can SEE the settings change. However, you do need to save each one with an individual name.

Excellent! I particularly like the “Party” particles . . .
Thank you Alan!

Wow! Has anybody made use of it? Made use of it for any Compositing options? . . .

I’d think that this is an area of Vegas that is not available to our Scripting GURUS. But I hear you . . there could be many MANY creative options/advantages if it was made available.

The 3 Wheel CC has been in Vegas since SONY Vegas 5. Don’t think it was in SoFo Vegas 4?

OK, then why can’t I see an AC-3 as being an import option?
