Split Screen and Panning in Vegas 8
INSTRUCTIONSSimple Split Screen1. Put both clips I want to use for the split screen on two different layers.2. Click the Event Pan/Crop button that is on the side of every clip (Image of Joey and Téa popped up in the Event Pan/Crop screen). It's easier to start with the 'higher' level, the one over the second image.3. *Make sure you click the key (Diamond shape) at the START of the timeline under the image. Otherwise things could get messy.4. Drag the image so that it only fills have the screen on the preview window. Exit Event Pan/Crop Window.5. Enter the second image, and do likewise. Remember to click the Key on the timeline beore doing anything.Slightly Harder - Allows for Panning images without overlap.1. Follow Similar steps, only this time go into Video FX at the bottom of the screen and click Cookie Cutter.2. I use the "Picture-in-Picture" option, but you can use squares, or another other shape you'd like for this. Again, remember to CLICK THE KEY at the START!3. Drag this effect onto the 'Top Image' (Joey and Téa) And resize it to fill the screen vertically.4. Drag this effect, still in the FX Window, so that the image is cut out at the divide you want.(I did this with the lower layer also, but it's not actually neccessary.)PANNING5. Go back into Event Pan/Crop of the image you would like to Pan. Click the first Key, and move the image to the 'starting point' you'd like.6. Click the end of the timeline beneath that image, and drag said image in the direction you want it to travel, leaving it were you'd like it to end.There should be a second key at the end of the timeline.7. Repeat on the second image.Obviously, people can be a lot more creative than this :D This is just a rough version ^-^
