TITLE 71
Rolling & scrolling
One of the most common and effective techniques for presenting closing credits is the rolling
or scrolling credits. With VideoStudio, this is simply a matter of specifying a direction and a
duration for your text. After you have entered some text and inserted it in the Timeline, click
the title clip you have created and click the Animation Tab.
To scroll a text title:
1. Select a text title in the Timeline or create a
new one.
2. On the Animation Tab in the Options Panel,
select Fly from the Type drop-down list.
3. Specify how to scroll the title by choosing
these animation options:
•Start and End units Determine whether the
whole title (Text) moves, or parts of the title
(Char, Word, or Line) scroll one at a time.
To add a title from the Library:
1. Select Title from the Folder list. Then, drag a
preset title thumbnail from the Library into
the Title Track.
2. Click the Preview Window to edit the
selected preset text title. Use the Editing Tab
to enter new text or modify font styles. Use
the Animation Tab to add animation effects
to the title.
3. Click Apply.
