			<description><![CDATA[Here's a tip for Chroma-keying using Vegas Studio:
1101 EV explained how to chroma-key.  But to find just the right color setting, click the SNAPSHOT icon on any frame you're currently working on that contains the greenscreen without the filter.  Then open that file in any photo editing software.  Using the eyedropper tool (even bare-bones windows paint has that), select a color from the greenscreen field, and somewhere on the window, the program will give you the RGB information on that pixel.  If you're new at greenscreening, this saves you from a lot of tweaking in the filter box, as you can now just type in the RGB values!

EDITING MY COMMENT - UPDATE

I just never knew thast there was an eyedropper tool on the Chroma FX tool!!!!!!  1101 EV mentioned it earlier on this thread but I was multitasking at the time and also in a hurry and I missed that reading it.  It makes the aboe technique pretty pointless!  Do it 1101's way!

BUT

 If you have snapshots of individual frames that you are animating with greenscreen, rather than a single video, you do NOT have to apply the effect to each individual frame!  Instead of applying effects to a frame or a video event, you can apply effects to a whole channel.  You'll see an effects icon on the channel bar to the left.  You can even apply markers to the timeline below the effets window and only allow the effect to take... "Effect" at certain parts of the timeline]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[if you want to separate a specific part of the image, select it with the appropriate selection tool, and then add a layer mask. click on "white (full opacity)." Then on the part that you would like to be transparent, color it all black. 

If you wanna move writing around after you create it, make sure the layer with the writing is active in the layers dialogue, and then go to the move tool and then kinda just move it around just like any other layers

yeah, I hope this helps, I kind of suck at explaining things. If you don't understand you should probably just look up a tutorial because I'm afraid I'll just confuse you more. :)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@1011Ev Hey there thank you very much for answering all the questions you could and assisting me as much as you could, I'll be sure to check the video's when I get a chance, as atm I'm limited to Internet, also how do I mask the tv, as in a tv that would be in motion? (So how would I put 2 different scenes in one scene?

@Sean Thanks for your reply, I currently don't have skype but I will definitely look into it as I said I'm very limited on internet atm but I do occasionally go to the Internet cafe, so when I get Internet I'll add you, I appreciate your assistance.

@Rsteenoven I would believe me, though as I said being very limited on Internet I can't, but as always I appreciate people from BiM as they have had experiences with my questions, thanks for your reply!

Thanks guys.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'll answer Vegas as I have had experience with it for a year or two.
I'm not quite sure what the exact frame time to achieve 15 fps and I have forgotten, but that's because I don't do that. I use a program like monkeyjam which saves the frames as a video file. You can also import frames into monkeyjam to get a video from them. For Chroma-keying (greenscreening), you need to have all you pictures have a green screen in the background. Then you hit Event FX, then select Sony Chroma Keyer then hit ok. Click on the color, then either choose from the adjustable pallet, or use the color picker. If you input individual frames, you will have to repeat this over and over. If you input a video you only have to do it once. To add gun effects, make two tracks, place the muzzle flash on the top track, line it up correctly with the animation, then change the compositing mode to Add. Make sure to make the muzzle flash picture really small to about 1 frame for stopmotion. 
   You can do the same with explosion video clips. As for masking a tv in, you'll have to line it up right and mask it correctly. I'd suggest you look at this list of videos and watch as many as possible. [url=http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6947438DA744D525]These will help a TUN![/url]]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone I just have a few questions I need some assistance on.

First sony vegas,

What is the speed rate to achieve FPS, in sony vegas? (E.G 0.89)?
How do I green screen on sony vegas, and how do I continue to use the same
picture of the green screen? Or do I have to keep adding it to every frame?
How do I extend frames?

After Effects questions.
How do I use Liquidify?
How do I create explosions?
How do I add special effects into an aniamtion such as a lego watching a tv show
in motion, but possibly different colours from the lego such as holo blue or something?
How do I add gun efects? 

Gimp Questions.
How do I select an image from the rest of the background? Such as just selecting the lego man
from a background of a house, so selecting and removing the house background so its just him
then put him in another background?
How do I put a picture then add writing, I know how to add the writing but how do I move the writing 
once im done? 
How do I make a logo or signature? 


Thanks in advance, any questions that can be answered is very much appreciated, Cheers guys.

Generalned
