I was just watching a random Video and it was a video of a guy shooting basketball, whenever the ball went in the hoop there was a "splash of water" animation appearing near the basket.
How is that accomplished? Can that be done with SVP?
You could probably do it the same way Orson Wells did in Citizen Kane when the snow scene globe breaks: put a couple of frames of "water splash," with a transparent background, on the track above. Use Track Motion to position it.

So you first have to find stock video with transparent background?
Unless you make it youself, yes.
Then place it in the location you want. It doesn't need to have a transparent background, you can use one of the Vegas FX (ie chroma key) to make it transparent.

Thanks for this, never used Chroma Key before! Easy to use?
Basics are easy. The video/image you're using it on is more important imho, depending on the results you want.
The best tip I have for the Chroma Key FX is this: apply it, then uncheck the box to disable it. Select your color you want keyed out, then re-check the box to re-enable it. I do this because once you initially apply it the default color is used by the FX, changing your preview window. Unchecking the box to disable it lets you choose the color from the preview window with less tweaking.
