ANIM X for BOGART SE and some other updates are available at this time though it has not been posted on the MSUS site as of yet. ANIM X allows actual animations to be added to a scene. There are many ANIMATIONS available that can enhance your projects. Animations from moving globes, time, cameras, moving lower thirds etc. etc. etc.

In this exercise we are going to make a logo using a lower third, a rotating earth and a object circling the earth as a corner logo.
.Pick a scene of your choice while in the scene bin

.SPECIAL>ANIM X

.CHOOSE any lower third....I used #35 background

.Position the lower third in the lower part of the scene-obviously. You will see a size and position icon-very intuitive.

.RENDER to your scene bin

.OPEN the SAME scene again in ANIM X as stated above via the SPECIAL window

.CHOOSE OBJECT EARTH #1 and place same in the lower right via shrinking the SIZE box.

. AGAIN...RENDER to your scene bin

.OPEN the layered scene once more

.ADD OBJECT CIRCLE 2

.PREVIEW in FULL SCREEN as you must carefully SIZE and POSTION the aforementioned preciously over the rotating EARTH.

.RENDER once postioned to the scene bin.

.ADD a title to your lower third if you wish

RESULTS: ANIMATED LOWER THIRD....ANIMATED EARTH LOGO with an ANIMATED CIRCLE rotating over the MOVING EARTH.

You can also add a small title atop the rotating earth which represents your company etc.


EXAMPLE BELOW OF A VIDEO STILL OF THE ANIMATION:


NOTE: The actual MSUS TITLE and background were IMPORTED from CB PAINT via my SOLITAIRE to the "S4000PRO. The ANIM X effect is the bottom third and earth logo.

It has been released last week. I have it downloaded to my unit as does my friend who purchased it as well. Pretty cool as it is great to import directly from the SPECIAL EFFECTS bin rather than using an external disc and using disc transfer.
