Producing a movie clip of a map with a moving route marker

terry dennis · Post by **terry dennis** » Tue Nov 17, 2009 4:53 pm

To go with my recent trip around New Zealand and the movie to come , I had thought of somehow producing some clips showing a map of different areas of the country with a moving route marker.

Has anyone any bright ideas how this could be achieved ?

Terry,

there are other ways you can do it with earlier versions of VS. There is a free program you can download (which was in a post on this board if you do a search), but I'm away from my computer with it on, so l will look as soon as I get home if no one has posted it by then.

Hi Terry

this is a link to the VS post with the program, it's in French but I managed to get it working without too much of a problem.

Its called ITIN, it's a free software if you do a search on Google you will find it.

Many , many thanks for all your input.

I got back from my 5 week visit to Australia & New Zealand ONE week ago and posted TWO questions on TUESDAY. Today I have complete answers to BOTH of them.

I said in my vote of thanks for the other question , what would we do without this forum ?

Brilliant !

Thanks again to everyone for their input.

Best regards

Terry Dennis

Hi Terry
Download the trial version and you should be able to produce the map that you want and save it as a separate file. Then import it to your VS11.

Sorry , John ; A trial version of which , exactly ?

I think mitchell may be talking about the trial version of X2 which makes these things much simpler...

As for NZ, I can't help myself at this point but announce that I love the place. I was just there myself a little over a week ago, for about my 12th visit, but this time I decided I could live there, and so I bought a house. Little town called Levin, 100 km north of the capital, Wellington. I will move there in June next year...

Video Studio X2 that's the one with the "Painting Creator". The icon is the last one in the line of icons that strt with the storyboard and timeline icons. It has a small brush across a filmstrip. The tutorial I mentioned in an earlier post is very good.
The link to the trial downlaod is here:

Just a little added incentive toward VS Pro X2, the upgrade price is only $29.99, until 11-23-09.
