Drop Shadows on Credit Roll? reberclark wrote on 4/13/2008, 1:36 PM Hello. Can drop shadows or an outline color be added to credits in the Credit Roll plug-in in VMS8? Thanks. Back to post

For a drop shadow choose a darker color for the lower track and use Pan/Crop or track motion to slight it slightly lower and to one side. reberclark wrote on 4/13/2008, 6:37 PM That works fantastically in preview. I suspect on render it will as well. Thanks again for your insight!
