Any tips ?

[Mayflower]

Just got Vegas 6. First thoughts, it's soo complicated !!! After learning Photoshop, I never thought that'll be something more difficult to face

Anyway, dont even know all the functions and features of this software, I'm very very beginning in video editing so I thought maybe you guys could suggest me some tutorials sites or some basic things ...

Darkstar, pmed u for a couple of questions... I you could not answer maybe shar e them here. Someone will be able to answer.

Well, s I am here, I ask a question which may sound n00bish for u

- How can I make text appear while the video is playing ? With Pinnacle or other small software, it's very simple, but I cant seem to find the way with Vegas...

Re: Any tips ?

Create a new video track above the event you want text over. Put your position where you want the text. Right click the new track and select [Insert text media...] Edit and size from there.
