  RE: Portrait clip on top of portrait clip, Size/Position/Rotation is weird
  @Former user I think half of the illusion is not expecting something to be a special effect. As long as it isn't an impossible thing like an alien spacecraft in the sky or out of place as an object within a scene it should go unnoticed. The hard bit

  Looking for effect
  Ok so, I'm looking for a special effect I want to use in my next short fiction film. I am going to film/video a chase scene and I'm going to use a DJI mini 2 camera drone to fly next to the action. The drone will video in super smooth video. I want

  RE: Export Uses Max of 20% CPU - 14 Minute Video Takes 7 Hours on Beefy PC
  Thanks Ray! There are no effects in use at all, and the timeline is just cross-faded clips, with added music tracks. Absolutely nothing special. If I use the GPU acceleration, VPX will crash on rendering. My export settings look almost identical to

  RE: which is better for video production - vegas pro or video pro X ?
  @TjamzMusic Hi. This is just my opinion so don't take it too much to heart. It depends on how much post production and special effects you wish to add and how high end your camera is and what codecs it uses. . Both are more dependent on the quality
