Creating Titles with Avid Marquee
Fading a Title
Most titles are faded up and down, so they don’t abruptly pop on screen.

solves and fades, but you should use another method for fading titles.
To add a title fade:
1. Place the position indicator in the title segment. You can fade multiple
titles in the sequence by selecting them all in Segment mode.
2. Select the track that includes your title.
3. From the Tool palette Fast menu, click the Fade Effect button
.
(You can map this button in the FX tab of the Command palette.)
4. In the dialog box, enter the number of frames for Fade Up and Fade
Down.
5. Click OK.
Revising a Title
After you save a title, you’ll often want to revise it. Several controls in
Media Composer allow you to change your title’s opacity, size, positioning,
and cropping. (Even more options are available if you promote the title to
3D, but that is beyond the scope of this book.)
However, when you need to manipulate the title using Marquee tools, you
can seamlessly send the title from Media Composer to Marquee for revision.
