Topic: Sony Vegas Pro 12 Masking Problem

Hey guys, I'm relatively new to the software sony vegas and I've started to mask my videos with it. I find that if I mask the first frame, it will automatically apply the mask to the other frames ahead of it. Then if I proceed to the next frame to mask it and delete the mask already applied- it deletes my masking of the first frame. If anyone actually understood that I'd really like some help to fix it mini/wink Thankyou!

Re: Sony Vegas Pro 12 Masking Problem

I think you're applying the settings for the whole channel, when you can mask every individual frame.  The effect icons can be seen on each frame, which SOny considers an individual project media.  Not sure if this helps.

Ah, it does actually sort of help mini/wink Up until now I've been importing quicktimes- so i should be just importing individual frames mini/smile Thanks

Re: Sony Vegas Pro 12 Masking Problem

You don't have to import individual frames if you want to use the quicktime video as a project media.  You can import a quicktime video, splice it by placing your cursor on the desired splice point and pressing S, and then each piece of the video becomes its own video event at the splice point, which can be custom set!
