Hello,
Could you please tell me how you can make that same effect as in the video at 0:22. The player is able to make the input notations highlighted. Could you please tell me what search words I need to use in order to find tutorials for that?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards.
Create the button overlay you want with words or not in Photoshop. Leave your Photoshop background transparent. Then insert PSD file into Vegas on a video timeline above the game video track. Create as many of these files as you need to animate the text.
A .PNG with alpha channel or transparent background will work too. Even .TIF format has this ability with the right image software.
Clip around where you want the text to appear over the screen shot, then apply a blur to the image during that time frame / clip. The video will still play in the background, unless you save a jpeg of the 1st frame of video where you want it to stop, then insert that into another video track above the game source track. Then apply blur to the jpeg still image. Move game source footage down the timeline so that it appears to startup again when the graphic overlay is done.
You can save the video frame where you want the action to stop to JPEG, by hitting the small Disk icon over the preview window.

really thank you for the help. But i am unable to reproduce what you are saying. Is it perhaps possible that you can give me some pointers for a tutorial video so I can see what needs to be done?

There's a lot of ways to do things in Vegas, but if I understand what you're saying you could use the Linear Wipe,Left-Right, Hard Edge under Transitions to do this. You also want to use Pan/Crop or Placement under Text to get the graphic to the lower corner.
1. Put the gray graphic or grey text on Track 2.
2. Put the colored text or white graphic on Track 1 directly above it.
3. Apply the Linear Wipe Effect to Track 1 and stretch it for the timing you want.
4. Put the video on Track 3. and that should do it.
It's just one way to do it. But I think the simplest. You can split and trim the clips to extend or adjust the effect further.
