How do i pixelate out a logo? at DVinfo.net

Michael Hutson · March 31st, 2009, 07:36 AM

Could someone give some step by step procedures to pixelate(blurring out would be ok also) a logo out so it is not readable. I am not really up on the proper steps for masking or getting the pixel effect in general. Thanks in advance.

Nevermind found it. Here is tutorial if anyone is interested.

That exact procedure is described in Vol 1 #12 of my newsletters.

If you want an even simpler method, Video Essentials from New Blue also has an effect that will perform this task without requiring multiple tracks or masks.

Thanks Ed, I'll be sure to check it out. Are all your newsletters located in one area? I will check out your newsletters first in the future. Thanks again.

Yes they are. Just click on the link in the post. On that page, click on the "Newsletter Archive" link. There you'll find all newsletters.

While the older ones go back to Vegas 4, 99% of the information is till perfectly valid in Vegas Pro 8.

Heh, the article described exactly what I was going to suggest... gaussian blur / pixelate on a second track then use cookie-cutter to choose how much / where you want it to be.
