title build with durrations

Post by qualityfilmvideo »

Hello all
I am trying to build a title, or a series of title pages on a single clip that I can control when the next title words or graphics box will appear and for how long it will stay on screen. I have a 30 second scene and I want to have the first title appear 3 seconds in, then another graphics box to add about 5 seconds later, and so on until I end up with 4 different titles on the same clip. How can I do this?
I am using a Prestige with OS 4.1
Any help is great
Thanks
Guy ;)

Hello Guy,

We do have the option in the Casablanca Titler to add more than one title on the same screen with the 'Boxes' option. But as far as I know you can set uniform times for effect. To have differing times I believe you would have to do it like this:

1 .Apply your 1st (longest title effect) to the entire scene, make a Scene of the entire thing (Effect+Scenes)
2. Apply your 2nd title, using the Range to scroll the 'In' point further down to where you want this 2nd title to appear, make a Scene of the entire thing (Effect+Scenes)... you will now have your base scene with two titles, one coming in after the other.
3. Continue any number of additional times until you have built your sequence to your desire.

Hope that helps!

Regards,
Chet
