Non Techie with new hobby! Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Does VP offer an easy way to place “idea bubbles” over a person’s head in a photo image or video clip? Any way to do this? Size it? Place it? Then have it show then go on precise cues? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Place the bubble on a higher (overlay) track than the background, precisely where and for how long you want it to appear. Click the FX icon at the bottom-left of the clip thumbnail or EFFECTS in the menu bar and use POSITION, SCALE or MOTION to size and position it. (This is picture-in-picture.) If the bubble is a transparent png image it should blend in very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationalsolo Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Hi Load your video to Video Track 1. Open dual preview windows from Options/Display. (This is useful.) Click File ............ Select options as below...... Select from Speech Bubbles and Download..... Bubble selected appears in Image bin . There are "Speech" bubbles and "Idea" bubbles" in the NCH library. For this example I used a simple speech bubble Drag bubble image to Video Track 2. Click FX and add a Scale effect to reduce bubble to suitable size. You can monitor this in the Sequence preview side of the dual preview display Click the green + and add a Position effect to place the reduced bubble in desired position.You can monitor this in the Sequence preview window. Add a text clip Adjust size/font/colour to suit the bubble.This text image will be placed on Video Track 3 Click the FX on the text image and use the Position effect to place text inside the bubble using the Sequence preview display to monitor the result. Adjust Bubble and speech clips so they have the same length and are of a suitable duration. Group them if you feel it is necessary. Move the two image clips along the timeline so they appear together at the required time. Hope this helps Nat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
