credit roll zoom on blue

weaver wrote on 10/10/2004, 5:08 AM

I like the credit roll/timed, zoom in/out option - but not the "on Blue" semi -transparent feature. The basic zoom in and out is great - but I would like the background to be fully transparent. Is there a way to change the blue-ness background? ... as in get rid of it?
I tried to get a similar effect by using basic text with full transparent background - and using lots of pan and crop - but thefull zoom out is not from infinity - and doesn't look as slick as the credit roll version.

Any suggestions?

Hi Ian:

When you go to edit the Credit Roll, you will see two tabs on the right side of the window, Properties and Styles.

Go to the Styles tab. At the bottom of the tab, you should see Background Color. Click on the button showing with the blue color in it and it will bring up a color selection box. This color selection works like all the others in Movie Studio. In the upper left corner of the box, there is a slider that shows how solid or transparent the color will be. Dragging the slider all the way to the bottom will give you a completely transparent background. Dragging the slider all the way up will give you a completely solid background.

Hope this helps...
Al
