Tutorial Sony Vegas Masking

EDIT: Well, I've been really busy with school and all (college is a lot of work =\) so I haven't been able to get on YouTube for more than like 5 mins a week. I'd love to answer all of the questions but I honestly don't know the answer to most of them. I haven't been able to fiddle around with Vegas in over a year now. I don't even have it installed on my current computer. =(

There are lots of other tutorials out there, Good Luck finding your answers in them. I, sadly, will not be of much help other than what is in this video.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A quick tutorial I threw together to explain some basic masking techniques used in Sony Vegas. For this tutorial I show how to put a music video into the background of a Guitar Hero video. If there are any questions just ask, but I really dont know too much about Sony Vegas so I can try to answer as best as I can. THANKS =)

how do you use masking on vegas 9.0?? i cnt do it or find it??

[xxR3gIcD3xx]

Sorry but I don't know I've never used anything besides Vegas 7.0 =(

[maroon5lvr28]

I have the trial and it doesnt have anything under position. (platinum 8.0) Am I suposed to somehow put it there or is it not available unless I buy the thing?

[xxR3gIcD3xx]

Umm it may be because it is only the trial version... however I'm not familiar with Vegas 8.0, only vegas 7.0... so that may not be the reason

[HeadHeldProductions]

[TwirlieLive]

Thanks so much....

[IdiotWithTheBlueEyes]

@maroon5lvr28 movie studio (hd platinum, whatever) doesn't have it. all sony vegas trials have the exact same options as the full version, you just have a limited time using them.
