See-thru Text Over Video?

[jroc]

I've used Kari's trick of showing video inside of text in a Videowave production but to do it you have to create the text object in Photosuite and use the chroma key to "open" the text. I've been trying to find a way to create an outline-only text and use it as an overlay over video, i.e., as a title over a moving background. No luck so far, anybody done this?

Not directly, but some people have had success with animated text using Corel Xara and importing that as a clip

I'll check out Corel, though I was hoping to not have to buy another app to do this. Thanks for the tip.

Xara 3D is $44.99 but you can get a trial version to see how it performs

I got the trial version yesterday but so far it doesn't seem to work well with EMC10. Have you used it with EMC?
