I am using VideoStudio V9 and included with this is Boris FX V7.
I am teaching myself to learn VideoStudio and I have now come across Boris. I cannot find any tutorials for this version of Boris and have now started watching earlier versions, but they are not quite the same. I am putting together a partial outlook on what I want to do from these earlier versions.
What I am trying to do in Boris, is move my text in the Composite screen to travel a certain distance of the clip and then apply some sort of filter that maybe explodes or disperses the text. I don't even know if Boris can do this???
I watched a tutorial of an earlier version called Motion Path Tutorial for Boris Red 4 (the closes thing that I could use, and was hoping to learn from it and apply what little knowledge and no how I have to my scenario); I have now got to the point in my version where I am suppose to add a Motion Path and this is where it all goes wrong. The other version says that I will find it on the Filter>Motion Menu I EVENTUALLY found it on Preview>Controls>Motion Path, but I can't get to it, it's greyed out, so I am assuming that I have missed a step somewhere.
All I want is perhaps a tutorial that can show me how to use it and hopefully I can put the pieces together to accomplish my scenario. OR perhaps a Motion Path is not what I need to use. I have included a screen shot of the word I want to travel to a point in the clip.
Whilst here, I would also like to say what a great program VideoStudio is, I am learning so much, AND THERE IS SO MUCH TOO LEARN. So I can remember I am writing it all down, because as a 70 year old, I forget things, well that's my excuse. I do come back over the notes and redo them again and again, this way I cement it into my memory. I am now getting pretty good at understanding a "little" of Boris as I have been on this for nearly a week, but I just can't get this Motion Path going... it's such a big learning curve for me. Love Gripps he has shown me a lot.
Anyway thanks to any help/replies I get.
