How to add subtitles and captions into Inventor Studio

[CAnnondale]

Hi Guys,

 

I have created a animation/video for our project. Is it possible to add subtitles and/or captions to the animation/video. If so, how do I do that in AI 2010?

There is not an option to do this in Inventor you would have to take it into Camtasia or Movie Maker or some video editing program. The only foreseeable work around is to create parts in Inventor made up of words and have them fade in and out at certain periods of time in the animation.

Hi Mark,

 

Thanks for the info. I will try what you have done by creating a text part.

Another option involves a third party software. Windows Movie Maker is included with Windows XP (on mine anyway). I don't know if this software is also found in Vista.

 

You create your movie file in Inventor, then import it to Windows Movie Maker. You can add seperate sound clips if you like (like a recorded narrative, or music file), have different video effects added, and add text in the movie file. You can even add several different video clips into one file. It's not all that complicated as I have learned how to do it by playing around with the program in a couple of hours.

@Denimoth - Thanks for the info. I have already tried different software tools as what Mark have mentioned.

 

Cheers...
