how did you do the shadow?

without the shadow of the bottle, it's meaningless.

[AmuseMeJasmin]

[marxvlog]

Loved this video. So simple to do and yet I didn't even think to do it.

[tutsemoquefazer]

[SonicMoose1999]

[funnykidzz135]

[pariastabendesa]

[pariastabendesa]

shadows make all harder!

[UnipsychleProduction]

Could you do a tutorial on how to make bed sheets and doors move without anybody there?

[Matty09Magic]

@UnipsychleProduction there should be one on his playlist, im not sure of the name but the bed one is on there

[XxMalwareRemoverXx]

Hello,

I was wondering if you can please re-do this tutorial because back then your recording qulaity was not great which made it hard to see. But now it is very good quality so please think about it....

[alliegirl787]

okay, i dont have sony movie vegas 8, i have vegas movie studio platinum 9.0. and it dosent have the masking thing for when you are cutting out the object. what can i do get mask the object instead of just downloading move vegas 8?

[zmr5161]

@alliegirl787 unfortunately the mask thing is only available at the vegas pro ..not

on vegas platinum..

[BLuex745]

It's easy in my way. You take a bottle with a green background, select "pure green screen" and add keyframes, and you can move the way you want

[bridzo]

@BLuex745 who has a green screen just lying around their house

[z3r0Day92]

tnq shorty :)

[missadric2]

thanx mate thats great!!!!

[ProphatosGrapha]

Can anyone reccomend me to a good free screencasting software? I tried alot including Camstudio but they all don' t record sound and when I try to record sound with audacity while recording the screen the audio just gets messed up and is not on time with the video.

[pennypedalpounce]

@ProphatosGrapha try camtasia studio

[ProphatosGrapha]

@pennypedalpounce I tried it and it won't record audio!

[moongoddessleil]

yey!niiice

[AmuletsOfTheSeas]

THANK YOU!!

[MayerEO]

awesome! and it's easy! thanks

[JazzFiveO]

Could you or anyone tell me where masking is on vegas 10

[forevertomboy]

@JazzFiveO theres a vegas 10???

[JazzFiveO]

@forevertomboy yeah its been out a little while now and really good too

[forevertomboy]

@JazzFiveO is it pro or just regular

[RoxasOathkeeper19]

question... the snapshot's kinda tiny, anyway to change it's resolution?

[Bmxerlmao5288]

you might need a big magnifying tool

[TOMDERREL]

how do you get the bottle to spin while in mid air

[quickslaptv]

xD! ''what the heck''!

[THEHORRORPORNSHOW]

he is a midget

[fuzonacid]

That's a brilliant idea and fascinating to watch how you the technique.

[Fena1997]

hehe :)

[misaluvakatsa]

nice beard :D

[micdan8000]

midgets are fuckin awesum:D

[sodaferret12]

in this video, the camera is in a fixed position, could you do this with a moving camera?

[MultiVids4u]

cool

thanx

[MrZack2271]

what did  you use to record

[DeathsNotoriousAngel]

Dude you're awesome and u definitly got skillz.

[TheHabzukiDownloader]

Can someone help me with this problem.. A long time ago when my vegas pro 8 was new.. I just clicked on Event/pan crop and it appears in anew big window. But now it's not do that anymore. It's hard to se what i'm doing. Cant see the moviescreen and the Event/pan crop window in same time. See on: 2:12 at this video. I want the window to appear like that. plz help me. Sorry for my bad english.

[fuzonacid]

@TheHabzukiDownloader

My guess is u need to just grab the edge and drag and the window will detach. Right now it is probably docked with the other windows rather than floating on top.

[ChaosVista81495]

that's gonna be really useful to lots of people!

Thanks!

[EKmion]

so you mean all those poltergesit videos are by/from sony vegas and photo shop?

[sturgtripoli]

so if i mask myself i can basically Fly Myself!!! Awesome :D

this vid helps in a lot of ways!

[OriginallyMasked]

Nice! thanks man, Very helpful! so could i just add any image i have, and mask it? and make that float threw my vid?

[nunogonewild]

another good job

[pinkheart309]

omg i saw the vid and umm scary!! it really scared me

[rapit74]

My object rest a the same place but after i have 2 times the object .... do you know wath can be the problem ?

[SonyProVegas]

NICEEEE.

But pls try to use a better screen recorder such as Camtasia Studio 6

[bandit787]

do you know how to do the masking with sony vegas 9 hd or any cool effects that make the videos more spooky?

[Degari1994]

I so want to do this and freak everyone out... if I had the right program :(

[JIMBOND27]

Just like paranormal activity.

[yz1animz]

Thanks I'll upload it soon

[Crazyflasher10]

spammer :o

[amberrocksface]

is this just for sony vegas pro?

[bigtigers4life]

or... you could go out and buy a green screen suit and walk in and move everything around!

before editing it looks like some one dressed up like a martian is picking things up and moving them around and people are screaming! LOL!

[cricketgd]

@bigtigers4life I tried that but i in Vegas I'm not very good and I don't know how to set the chroma key to transparent if you know what I mean so I'm not black, plis where I've had my fingers on the item it fails but I can sort that.,

[bigtigers4life]

what you need to do is have a screenshot of the area (without the object) and put that under your chroma key footage. and if your not completely transparent after that, try altering the color that you want to be invisible (green). hope that helps.

[cricketgd]

It has helped thanks. I might be using my suit and a green screen together though, shall I do the suit first then render and use the render in a different project? If I do two chroma keys in one project it fails :L Thanks. Cricketgd

[bigtigers4life]

thanks for the reply but i'm not too familiar with chroma key either (in fact i've never used it in any of my vids but i'll actually actually do that one day... i already have a plan.) so i don't exactly know what you should do but if you send me the footage i can probably help you out. (i'll send my email in a PM)

[chanderson1]

Hi, I noticed in the final rendered video, the bottle was casting a shadow. How did you do that?

[liraria]

maybe this is the effects use in the movie paranormal activity

[Kaelth1]

Obviously... This trick is used to many films. Its the default of horrifying movies.

[edjedjedj1]

@liraria a man wore a green suit and layered the background

[BrokenGlassMedia]

OMg so Cool!!

thanks so much!!!

[nhy1989]

[jay202728]

plss help, i'm just wondering how the bottle on the video not be visible? i already masked it and try to float it. but the bottle on the video appears something like it is divided.. plss help..

[GerMusicDude]

Great stuff!!! Please keep going!!!

I like your haircut

[johnxitolove]

nice tutorial

[SSBloxLines]

Help!! I Masked it, and I set it on position, but I can't move the object up or down! Only sideways! Also, the whole screen moves!

[richw4]

In the pan and crop window of your masked object, on the left hand side are some icons, the bottom one allows you to move the object in different ways (up/down or left/right or freely) click it until it displays 'move freely (x,y)..hope that helps :)

[SSBloxLines]

But what about the whole thing moving and not just the object I wanna make move? Mine moves the whole thing, how come?

[harima500]

@richw4 In the preview

how were you able to make the ghost voice and the floating bottle shadow????

[Left4Computer]

How you remove the bottle from the video track?

[ERICINMYPOCKET]

Im in the process of creating a hot secordary film intilted (Haunted Ghost hunters) and i wanted it to invole alot of things moving on there on including making a person fly in mid air.

OMG. Now with all the parnarmal videos on the web how do we tell if someone is using your techniques to put one over on us? Can we trust any video we see on the web now? I don't think so.

[JamesHazBeHaiTyme]

No and you never could. You know "most haunted live", well my friends cousin works in the special effects department, sooo... yeah, its so obviously not real =P.

When I import video files into Sony Vegas, it puts them in the timeline as an audio file and I can't slid it into the Video file place.

What's Wrong?
