3 Comments :: (Total Votes: 6) Category: Tutorial Hollywood FX special effects Published on Sunday, November 01, 2009 Created on Sunday, August 30, 2009 9:47 PM | Sometimes you will see a transition in Hollywood FX that you really like but you would like to change the text. Only HFX won’t let you change the text.
The reason for that is that the “text” is not really text after all. It is in fact an object that looks like text and therefore the individual letters cannot be changed. It would be the same, for example, as having a picture of a coffee cup and saying you want to change it to the words “Coffee Cup”.
This tutorial will explain the steps needed to remove the object(s) and replace it with text that is editable. | | Read

3 Comments :: (Total Votes: 23) Category: Tutorial Hollywood FX special effects Published on Wednesday, February 25, 2009 Created on Sunday, January 04, 2009 6:08 PM | Recently, I saw a video clip that had a 3D title moving between several tall buildings. I'll admit that it didn't look easy ... so I wondered if I could manage to have the title move between two catamarans tossed about by the sea and pushed by a gentle breeze, which would make it an even more difficult challenge. | | Read

Moreover, as one can not directly import HD clips into the Easy FX Editor, this trick might also enable me use HD video while using the HFX Effect and Easy FX Editor from Studio 12.
