Using DJ animations now easier in Vegas Pro

UPDATE:  I found an error in the download archive.  The script was named incorrectly.  I have fixed the archive and it is ready for you to download.

Using Digital Juice animations that have transparency just got easier in Vegas Pro thanks to master programmer and script writer John Rofrano. John is the great one behind the likes of Ultimate S and Production Assistant.

The inconvenience of using Digital Juice animations with transparency in Vegas Pro has come for the necessity of having to set the Alpha Channel type of each clip.  That meant right clicking the event, choosing properties, then the media tab, and finally setting the Alpha Channel type.  This new script ends that forever.  Now all you do is place the animations on the timeline, select the events, and press the new button on the toolbar.

The script is in a small zip file here: SetAlphaChannel Script for Vegas Pro (461)

Happy editing …

Crazy Talk Demo

When Crazy Talk (software) was offered at a significantly reduced price on the Digital Juice website, I gave it a try.  These are two quick promos for high school events that were done in just about 20 minutes work each.  Judge for yourself if this will do your job.
