Credits

Vizzy gives you a few ways to make self-documenting movies.


Credit Preset

The Credit preset uses a collection of Annotate/Text instructions to give you a template for a complete credits page.


Annotate/Text

By adding an Annotate/Text instruction to the script, you can put text into the movie.


     

The text can be placed anywhere in the frame with the X and Y sliders.

Also, you can arrange to fade the text in and out, or point at some detail within the frame.  To do either of these, you have to add a marked point with the instruction State/Mark.  This should go above the Text instruction.

Once the mark is set, you can use the "point to mark" to point at it, or the "fade from mark" to fade the text in around it.


Credits Editor

Vizzy has a built-in credits editor for adding more elaborate credits to the end of a movie.  Start the credits editor from the Project menu (Project > Credits Editor).

The Credits Editor has a preset button the give you a template for a basic credits page.  You can also save and load your own credit sequence scripts.

In addition to text, and credits editor lets you select still from the movie, or even an animated sequence, to use as the background.
