Masking in Sony Video Vegas

[SamuraiChick7777]

I understood the features on ur vid, can you please change the description saying it only works with the Professional versions? I sort of got confused for a moment until I looked on my version of Vegas lol.

[MrJohnjames2000]

Thanks in this video...

[Braveteacher]

I have sony vegas 9 and I do not seem to have the mask box to select or the tool or the anchor creation tool? Help.

[SamuraiChick7777]

@Braveteacher i have the same thing too, it's only available on the Professional versions

[Arjun007ize]

Nice one,Subscribed.

[lemonhead110296]

to everyone that is complaining about not having the mask button ill answer for him. u need to hav vegas pro. u hav the crappy movie studio. if u dont hav pro u cant mask

[Lanrify]

i dont have a mask button, why the heck do i not have a mask button???

[ihazastrawberry]

MINE DOESNT HAVE THE FREAKING "MASK" BOX! WHY?!?!?!?

[Uri0n]

Didn't understand a thing !

[dEsTiNy3HaCkEr]

i want to do a color correction without effecting on the masked area .. how i can do it ?

[RAPEPILLOW]

for all the nubs, get vegas 7 or 8 pro go into pan/crop and there is a masking button on the left bottom hf gl

[Punkyjes194]

I noticed that he/she is not replying to some of your questions.

He is using Sony Vegas 7/8 or lower. I am pretty sure it is not 9. I don't have Sony Vegas 9, but i do have 8. It should work perfectly. Please take note when this video was made, and when Sony vegas 9 came out. 2007 - 2009 2 years difference ^^;

[Punkyjes194]

Omg that's so easy! Thank you soo much

[Mephistin]

which one is this? 8 or 9? How about some specs man, this is lame, I've been looking up how to mask forever, but you do this?! and don't tell us what your using!!!

[MultiKJproductions]

You Only need to have Sony Vegas But not Movie studio because you don't have a mask icon on the movie studio

[luckykid213]

I have Vegas Movie Studio HD 9.0 And it dose not show the masking button dose that mean i dont have masking??? I would love some help! thanks!!!

[OverBloww]

You need to have Pro, platinum or studio doesn't work

[alexhomee]

@luckykid213 the only way to have the masking feature is by having the pro versions of vegas such as Vegas Pro 8, 9 and 10

[hacksign23]

@luckykid213 Movie Studio is actually for amateurs, so it doesn't have that ability. 

[luckykid213]

@hacksign23 yeah i know :( i wish i had better but i dont have the money it!

[LimaoAzeddo]

@luckykid213 it means u dont have the pro version

[yugixhilary]

hi again. i have a question for the sony vegas pro thing again. When i want to mask, i can't. I click on pan/crop as always on the clip i want to mask and when i see the box on the bottom of the window, i see a box next to the key frame that says "Position" but it's not clickable.

and when i want to mask, there's no check box or box that says "Mask" on it.

do you know what to do?

Cause i know how to mask, but i can't get to making it mask on my program.

[oscarrenehernandez]

i dont have that mask check box i have sony vegas 9

[PHANTOMDEPPSPONGEBOB]

Are you sure it's not SV 9 Platinum? Platinum doesn't have masking. :[

[Destructides]

The lack of handdrawn masks in Sony Vergas 9 fucking sucks -.- Anyone knows a downloadable plug-in or something? I'm quite upset about paying decent money and getting something half-assed in return.

[Healzer]

Sometimes there aren't all frames in the Pan & Cropping window and the result looks ugly, because that one frame isn't masked or it has the mask of some other frame, which looks also ugly.

Anyone knows how to fix that?

[JonasBrothersCarmen]

heyy i cant mask i havent got the click there for mask . i have sony vegas 9 what can i do

[cupcakemonster1665]

thank you so much! You helped me out a lot!

[Tatoroouvawaef]

how do I move a mask around?plz answr

[oneofthemillion]

RoNaLd0JUJU: when you push the Event Pan/Crop button (you can find it on the video track at the end) - a window opens - the masking tool is right on the bottom of the window and you need to check it.

[RoNaLd0JUJU]

plz plz plz answer i need help ... i cant see this mask ting anywhere ... its not viewable in my howcan i make it viewable ??

[KREUZBERGDOST]

when the other clip is moving it looks terrible

[kkflashboykk]

[rigo88]

[Ozzy0sbourne]

i wish when i masked that i would have the option to it do in reverse...

like if i mask it it takes it out instead of isolating that one part...

[Ozzy0sbourne]

i know that now. that comment is "near" 3 months old.

[ExConProdutions]

touche. i didnt look at the date it was posted.

[Ozzy0sbourne]

its ok , lol.

[Soulpowderx3]

people can mask in sony vegas 7.0 because they updated and stuff ...

(Plugins,Codecs etc...)

but how?!

[Light0fday]

Thanks so much!!! :DDD At 2:00 ((or around the archor tool part)) I was having trouble with that part cuz I was "dragging" lol and I was like OMFG what the heck? This doesn't seem right!" But now I understand; and I didn't understand how to do the rest lol so thank you so much!^^ I'll keep this video in my favorites FOREVER. ♥

I'll ask you questions if I have any, thanks so much!^^

[camilo9406]

Men........... i just love your "Error! Media" logo, did you make it on vegas?????

And hey, i can't do that on my sony vegas 9.0....i was wonering if you know how to do it.

Anyways thanks, great Video!

[errormedia]

The errormedia logo was made with After Effects, 3D Studio Max and Vegas.

And probably you can't mask in Sony Vegas 9 because it's the Platanium version which doesn't have the mask option.

Only the Professional versions.

[camilo9406]

ok men, thanks.

i now downloading Vegas 7 :P.

[yakumochan13]

is there any other way to mask in sony vegas 9?

[Vetle1995]

[Unbr0kenMedia]

[minime220220]

does anyone know how to get vegas pro 8 to read AVI videos as videos instead of just audio??? my camera makes AVI videos and i never can get pro 8 to read it as a video... just audio

[errormedia]

or you don't have the proper codec installed in your computer or u are trying to put a divx/xvid video in vegas.

[XpLiCiTbEaTs03]

Convert it into a wmv file

[ilostart]

Use AviC. Use that program and then close and reopen vegas.

[ilostart]

[igpx1man]

how do i make it so my words go over a clip without mask?

[errormedia]

Place a text layer with transparent background above your clip.

Or if the text doesn't have a transparent background, change the layer mode to Screen.

[dreamer1794]

[iceELEskate88]

you probably got sony vegas movie studio 8. movie studio doesn't have masking or some other options and effects in it.

[sonxtails]

so what vegas does?

[ruilolada]

edit

[ShippudenRocker]

umm, when i open that crop screen i dont have a masking option, im currently using sony vegas 8

[sasukegurl93]

oh my god...i can't believe it doesn't even have masking...that pisses me off. that's the one thing i WANTED out of it at least. the only thing that comes close to masking is like white, but it shows the person. i guess that's how I'm gonna have to do it...damn it.

[teardropblue]

After Effects.

[sheldonthegr8]

i can mask on mine all fine and dandy but i cant seem to mask it to where it glows? instead of a black mask (what is hapening on mine that is) io want it to glow white

[errormedia]

Use a solid white color under the clip.

[ByakuganBoy1]

Depends on your version, in 7, its Insert/Remove Envelope, Then CLick Velocity

[MPS11085]

[sakkigi]

thx

[CrimsonSnow71]

Thankyou^_^

[Itachinoonna]

I can't get the velocity part, I can't seem to find it. Which version of vegas is this for?

[mannybad]

6 and 7

[SamuraiGunSanji]

6.0+ I think, 5.0 might have it anyhow...To find out where...Just stop clip at 0:48

[kakashi807]

well...i guessed he just meant accelerating the video which is just *HOLD* the end of the video with the control button CTRL and then with d mouse, you drag it to the left or right, to the left if you want to increase the speed and to the right to slow it down

[Hinatabutterfly]

XD haha, thanks for the tutorial and I ve been trying to mask for so long is not even funny ;_;

[narutofan4lyf]

well how come when i do t hat ever i used the dots on stas there n da vid on da bottm appears normal.

[venger]

Nice tut.

Using this method, is it possible to make multiple masks placements. For example a duplicate of yourself crossing infront of yourself. Can you mask the area where the two clips meet?

[narutofan4lyf]

what song is this lol nice tutorial.

[errormedia]

I don't have that problem.

And I don't know what could be, sorry guys.

[huntingthe619]
