Add graphics in Grass Valley EDIUS

When you install Titler Pro 7, it is automatically added to any major non-linear editor (NLE) on your computer. Follow the steps below to add Titler Pro 7 graphics in Grass Valley EDIUS Workgroup and EDIUS Pro projects.

  1. Open a project in EDIUS.
  2. Position the playhead in the timeline where you want to insert a Titler Pro 7 graphic.
  3. Add a graphic from the timeline or bin, as described in the following steps:

    Add a graphic from the timeline:

    1. Click the Title button above the timeline.
    2. Choose NewBlue Titler Pro 7. The new clip is added to the timeline and the graphic opens in Titler Pro.

      Tip: To add the clip to the project bin, click the Titler Pro clip in the timeline and drag it to the bin.

    Add a graphic from the bin:

    1. Right-click in the bin and choose New Clip > NewBlue Titler Pro 7. A new clip appears in the bin.
    2. Double-click the new clip in the bin to open the graphic in Titler Pro.
  4. Customize the graphic in Titler Pro's workspace. You can select a design from Titler Pro's library, including custom designs you may have already created and saved to the library, or create a new design. For details, see Create graphics in Titler Pro 7.

  5. When you finish customizing the graphic, click the Keep changes  button in the bottom-right corner of the Timeline panel to save the graphic to your project's current session and close Titler Pro.

    Notes

    • The first time you close Titler Pro after creating a new graphic, you'll be prompted to save the Titler Pro project. Enter a name for the *.nbtitle project file, navigate to the location where you want to save the project and cache, and click Save.
    • The graphic's resolution and frame rate are determined by the project's settings in EDIUS.
  6. To change the duration of the graphic, click and drag the edge of the clip in the timeline.
  7. Save the EDIUS project.

Tip: Create a Titler Pro graphic from another graphic

If you copy and paste a Titler Pro graphic in an EDIUS project to create another graphic, any changes you make to either graphic are automatically applied to both copies of the graphic. To create a copy of a Titler Pro graphic that you can customize without changing the original graphic, save the original graphic to Titler Pro's library and create a new graphic based on that design, as described in the following steps.

  1. If you haven't already done so, complete the steps in the previous section to add a Titler Pro graphic to an EDIUS project.
  2. Open the graphic in Titler Pro and save the graphic to Titler Pro's library. For details, see Save complete designs to the library.
  3. Repeat the steps in the previous section and select the previously saved graphic from the library to add a new Titler Pro graphic to the EDIUS project.
