Chapter 18 • Superimposing
Titles
Titles can be superimposed over any video source.
Superimposed titles are often used in professional productions to identify
people, places, times, settings — or the score of the game! They can also be
used for subtitles or just as a way to play credits with an interesting back-
ground. TitleMaker 2000 allows you to superimpose. Effects, such as scroll-
ing, can be used to bring titles in and out over the source video.
Superimposing Titles on Video
To superimpose titles on video, change the background pattern to VIDEO
(rather than a solid color or pattern) as described in Chapter 15, "Patterns."
• Position the cursor on the page that contains the titles you wish to super-
impose.
• Press the BACKGROUND PATTERN menu button.
• Use MARK START to activate the top sub-menu. Use the RIGHT arrow
key to highlight the VIDEO symbol. Press NEW LINE/OK.
• Confirm that your video source is running (start the VCR or camcorder)
and press PLAY.
The OUTPUT monitor shows your page of titles superimposed over the
source video.
Superimposing Titles on Video
with a Transparent Pattern
You can mix a background color or pattern with the video, creating a see-
through pattern effect:
• Use the top sub-menu in the BACKGROUND PATTERN menu to choose
solid color or a pixel or rainbow pattern.
• Use MARK START to highlight the bottom sub-menu (the Video/Pattern
slider). Use the RIGHT and LEFT arrow keys to select a mix between video
and the pattern.
