Question about Sony Vegas 9.0...
 

Disclaimer: Me asking this question is NOT an admission of a lack a video editinf skill... In fact, I'm quite talented in that department...


Hey, is there a way for me to simply make a black bar in Sony Vegas? I want to cover my other websites watermark and put another one on top of it... I kno how to do the pixelation and blur stuff... But i wanna put a black bar over the name... Plz advise,

I don't have Vegas on the computer I'm on right now but yeah, I've done that. Took me some time to figure it out. You have to insert a background on a separate timeline. Then add an editing plugin...I can't remember the name of it but it's the same one you use for blurring, you just leave it rectangular. Then move the area of the plugin so it's only affecting the portion of the video you want it to affect.

Sorry, maybe someone else has more detailed instructions. If I had it on here I'd open it and give you a more specific solution. It works awesome when you rip an entire members area and want to put it on your tube. :-)

But, I gotta say, I can't believe someone of your experience admits to such low editing skills. :-)

It took balls as huge as a whale to ask this question... But uv lead me in right direction with the all black background thing... And yea, i can do it the same way ill do it when blurring... Thx :thumbsup

I dont use vegas but guessing it would be same as premire for something like this its super easy goto text make a black rectagle put it over box and then make your new text and bring it forward and place over black rectanlge :)

Suuurrrreeeee :winkwink:
