Transitions/FX for creating Motion Graphics without keyframing

Hi,

Although not available for VEGAS, just for reference, below there is information about transitions/resources for creating Motion Graphics in a convenient, easy and fast way, without the need for intensive key-framing work.

 

"Motion Tween" transition pack for Premiere Pro:

"Behaviors" a built-in feature of Camtasia Studio:

 

Does anyone know any third-party transitions or resource packages for creating Motion Graphics in VEGAS in a fast and easy way like in the examples above?

I'm asking about third-party transitions/fx or resources because it seems VEGAS built-in tools can't perform what I'm looking for (except the new animated text templates in v18). But if there is an alternative for creating motion graphics that easy directly in VEGAS, I'd appreciate knowing about it.

 

Thank you!

You'd better not do Motion Grapgics in VEGAS Pro, because Vegas Pro's key-framing feature is very limited 😂, I have tried it.

VEGAS Pro's keyframe only have several presets, it is far from advanced MG animation's "bouncing, smooth, exponential" and other key-framing.

Even Vegas Pro's ease in and ease out keyframe feature has big bug, So it is really improper to do Motion Grapgics in VEGAS Pro 😱

Thanks for your reply @xcxz-a

Exactly because of VEGAS limitations, I'm looking for a third-party solution that would improve VEGAS workflow for Motion Graphics.

Then I watched a video about "Motion Tween" transition, which seems to provide outstanding functionality for creating regular motion graphics directly on the NLE timeline, without the use of keyframes. Unfortunately, it is available only for Premiere Pro.

I was wondering if there is a similar motion graphics plugin for VEGAS Pro. I'm checking the possibility of using Hitfilm (Hitfilm Express 15 now can be launched from VEGAS Pro context menu, the same way as VEGAS Effects).

But even VEGAS Effects/Hitfilm seems to not provide a simple, fast, no key-frame solution like "Motion Tween". Hitfilm has a functionality named "Behaviors", but I'm not sure if it can deliver motion graphics that easy.

You can try Pro Typr Titler in VEGAS Pro. It has many keyframe preset 😂.

Or Vegasaur's tweener https://vegasaur.com/tweener but it can be only used in pan/crop, track motion, transition progress. Can't be used in Event OFX 😂

But the fundamental method is still request Vegas team fix its keyframe problem. 😯
