You may remember I recently had a lead on getting the rest of the series.  Well, I got them tonight and have just made them available.

Modules 5 and 6

Enjoy.  Learn.  Start using TD Pro!

Way to go Scott, very interesting videos.

 

It's a shame that more people don't take the time to learn about TD Pro and make use of it.  It is really a very powerful graphics editor.  The six videos that James Murphy made are very helpful in learning how to use it.

Thanks Scott for posting these.  I had all the other 4 training videos for title deko pro but not these last two.  I often used to watch the others wondering how to work with the layers but none of the other ones covered this. Thanks again.  I now have them saved.

I have watched the first 4 videos, but I could not save them  to watch at a later time. Is their a way to save the first 4 versions?

I am looking forward to Immersion for this class with Paul Mitton

They're also here in WMV format which can be downloaded.

Thank you Scott.  I will watch the latest when I get a chance.  In ref to Cathy's post - isn't there quite a bit about layers in the third tutorial?  I recall doing some exercises with layers somewhere along the way in the first four tutorials.

Module 2 has a lot on layers but everything about TD Pro is layers, really.  I hope these videos will help get people interested in using TD Pro more.  My biggest trouble from years ago up until recently was never knowing that it opened up with that starting layer which took up the whole screen.  Not knowing it caused me to have to start titles over from scratch many times when adding or moving text got things messed up.  I just didn't know about the layers and that I was unintentionally adding layers which appeared over each other.  I wish I had taken the time years ago to read the manual and I wish I had been able to see those tutorials back then.

Scott, don't feel bad. The problem is that TD is just not very intuitive. The tutorials are great because they help us realize TD's power, but where it all goes wrong is trying to apply it. The videos make it look so simple. I am glad I can watch the videos and work in the editor simultaneously.

 

Exactly, Ed.  That's why I hadn't figured it out until recently.  I expected it to be intuitive and it is just far too powerful and feature-packed to be that way.  Expecting that and not checking the manual long ago was my mistake and I regret it deeply.  I could have been making great titles with ease all these years!

I'm glad you're getting something out of the videos.  There's a lot that TD Pro can do that we're only going to discover as we use it more.

Scott,

I have been making good titles with TD all along, but I have had to watch those videos over and over and I still have no real clue how to manuever in TD. I even have a manual. I purchased TD Pro for Avid new for $10 just before Liquid 7 was released so I could use it in Liquid 6.1. Anyhow, the videos were a great find. I am going to watch the complete series again.

 

Sorry for the link being copied out in full on my earlier reply. I can see the button for creating a link and at one time I read (somewhere) about how to insert it. I will read up again if I get time today, but I don't usually feel competent to make many replies to other peoples problems - lots of capable users here without my pennies worth!

But like many others, TD Pro feels clunky to me although I can produce plenty of good titles with it and it's my only titler and probably always will be - if always is a lot less than infinity.
