Most video editing
software can "punch out" titles to show lower content, but only SpiceMaster can
easily blend and animate content, colors, highlights, etc. within titles as desired.
In fact, you can use SpiceMaster to easily animate virtually ANY video effect
(built-in or third party) in your system that is applied to a title. SpiceMaster
also provides unique organic effects of its own that are terrific for titles.
The effects can be pulsed, flowed, intensified, etc. over time with bezier keyframe
control.

Steps
1. Synch two copies
of the SAME title clip in adjacent tracks of
your timeline. (In most systems, this means one clip copy will be directly above
the other copy.) Additionally, you may have background clip(s) under both title
clips.
2. To ONE title clip copy (not both), create the different look you want to
animate/flow, such as a different color, highlighting, or applied effects
(built-in or third-party).
3. Apply the SpiceMaster as effect to the TOP title clip in your timeline. Be sure to also activate the alpha channel
key in the TOP clip, if required by your editing software.
4. Go to the PIP+ pane of SpiceMaster. Choose Choose > Title/Alpha. Note: If the
title clip has a black background, instead choose Choose > Title/Alpha on Black. If the title clip has a white background, choose Choose > Title/Alpha on White. Turn Switch Clips option On if SpiceMaster is applied onto the clip's tail.
5. Set up the effect. In the main area of SpiceMaster, click the Choose
Spice File button to select a spice design. Then adjust the effect using
controls in the Edge or Depth panes.
Tips
• To reverse
the direction of an iris-like effect, click the Invert button next to the spice image.
• To start (or end) the title's animation exactly at the beginning (or
end) of the clip, in SpiceMaster's Keyframes area right-click in the graph's gray background and
deselect Sync preview. Then move the blue vertical
preview marker to just before the last keyframe (or just after the first keyframe)
Now drag the last (or first) keyframe down (or up) while watching the preview
to see when the visual end (or beginning) occurs.
• To invert the title area altered by the effect, turn on the Invert
Alpha check box in the PIP+ pane of the SpiceMaster.

The D1 title clip did not have such a border originally, but SpiceMaster added
that enhancement in addition to organically "dripping" the title onto
the background.
