Ghostly Poltergeist effect...Sony Vegas Tutorial

check out the playlist on my channel for previous Tutorials if you like.
Following an number of requests on how I did a 'levitating' bottle in a recent video, here is a tutorial to show how it is done.
The sound of the bottle hitting the camera in the original video was simply recorded separately and added into the video. I also 'shook' the camera to make it look like the bottle had hit it. This tutorial is just to give you the basic idea and the techniques are really useful, I used it recently in a video 'Hide n Seek' to throw a book accross a split screen:

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