Titles in Vegas Pro

An important part of the film is subtitles. Introductory, intermediate, final, subtitles can all be done using Sony Vegas, and for this the developers have provided a great opportunity. You can create static or scrolling captions, change the color, size and style of the text, change the background or create captions over video and much more.

For titles better to use a separate video track.
Template titles are located in the Media Generators window. Static titles located on the Text tab, these titles will be displayed on the screen fixed, but you can easily turn them into dynamic titles using keyframes. Scrolling titles located on the Credit roll tab.

Let's try to add text to any video.
Suppose we have a small clip located on the Timeline.

Create a separate audio track, and the clip otodvinem right to titles not superimposed on video.

Now with tabs Text Media Generators window prstym dragging titles in the Timeline template arrange the static text. A window will appear where you can change the template and the actual type the desired text. Consider it.

You can experiment with the settings and create a custom template, save it to a file by clicking on the button

For example, to create a title over the video place the fragment with captions on a video fragment.

and the settings on the Properties tab, set the opacity of the background to zero.

As a result, we get the following:

Prokruchivaeye titles are the same, just pay attention to the parameter Leight (length) with the help of adjusted duration of the complete transmission of the titer, but the length of his display in the frame changes as well as the length of any video fragment. The end of any fragment, whether it is video, audio or subtitles denotes a triangle up- video.

So, at any time you can open the Settings window to change any settings, note the fact that the parameters are changed in real time on the screen view Preview.

Titles like effects embellish your film, but you need to have in all Senses measures.

Sound in Vegas Pro

Sony Vegas offers a lot of opportunities for sound editing, using transitions and effects as is possible for sound bites, like video. And also there is a possibility to open audio files in the project special editing applications, such as Sound Forge from Sony.

fragments Managing audio track is exactly the same as in the video, so let's get right to this part of audio editing, as the envelope. What is it?

Manage level easiest volume, just by using the envelope. This horizontal line throughout the entire track. the envelope is controlled by using control points.

Remove the original soundtrack. To do this, create an envelope on the soundtrack of our video. To do this, choose a set of tools Envelope Edit Tool and in the context menu of the desired track, select Insert / Remove Envelope -> Volume. To change the volume simply drag the envelope up or down. In order to completely disable the sound track lower envelope to the bottom, or click the Mute button

lanes on the control panel.

Now create a smooth transition at the beginning of the video, the music did not start abruptly. To do this we need to create a key point. Just double click on the envelope in the right place, or move the edit line to the place where you want to make a point, and then click Add Point item.

Between the two points will be a smooth transition portion. Just lower left point down and ready to move!

You can put taoy same transition, but in the opposite direction at the end of the clip. To do this we need to create two new key points and right lower down. Note that the last point is the right controls volume throughout the rest of the track.

So we can at some time turn off the sound track, for this we need four key points.

The two extreme points will mark the beginning and end of the interrupted period, in order not to change the volume in other parts of the track. Those points that lie between them, need to control the volume, simply arrange these key points for those that mark the beginning and the end and the site will not sound. Thus it is possible to combine multiple sound tracks.

Before you begin creating and editing sound better to edit the entire video.

On the application of the special transitions and effects to the audio tracks will be discussed in separate lessons on Sony Vegas Pro software.

Rendering in Vegas Pro

Again, check out the entire movie in the Preview window, and check the project settings, so as not to be surprised. The process of rendering video is pretty long and depends on the performance of your computer. If you are sure you have created the project can begin the process of "transformation" project file to a separate video file.

Pressing the button on the Render As Sony Vegas Pro toolbar, a window will appear to define a folder in which to save the future video file and confirm the name of the file. Also here we define the future of the file, because the project settings are used only for installation, but it is better to be the same that you set for the calculation. Yet some of the parameters of the project will affect the buduyuschy film, such as Pixel Format or Deinterlace Method.

After you select the destination folder and file name, you are prompted to select the file extension from a drop down list of file type.

And also one of the template parameters output video Tamplate field.

The Description field is a description of the template. You can edit the selected template by clicking the Custom button.

Once you have decided on the parameters of the future file, press the Save button and the program will begin the process of rendering a video, at the end of which you will be able to open the video file in the usual video player and enjoy watching your own movie!
