Hi,

I'm filming matches for my club, and wanna add a point counter like in this video :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Le1imDkXNBs

I don't find any tuto on how to do this.

any help please ?

Note : for table tennis, matches at my level are in 3 to 5 sets, generally a set is 11 points (but can go up)

I'm still in PD15 (+PE + AE)

Thx
David

You could do that with any titling. It would save a lot of time if you place a second camera to record the scoreboard and place it in your video at a corner when you want it to display.

Yes a solution, but no other one (and only one support too ), i was thinking about a phone for this.

On TV programm, those scores are updated in live (and less than 1 sec), i was thinking maybe a plugin or something could be available.
Hard to make this search in google or other (some too strandard keywords until here)

To be more precise, is there a method to do a semi-automatic number increment animation ?

Like i could create a background mask, and 2 overlapse with the increment, were i'll have "only" to manage the speed of change and align on the main video line.

The fx Time Stamp with the frames masked out can be one way.

It is in the retail version of PD15. Not in the limited or free versions.

Found it, all effects are translate and not in english.

I think about another solution maybe :

  • create 2 videos :

    • one with counter for points

    • one with counter for sets



  • Create a mask for title background

  • apply 4 counters videos in PIP (?) inside

  • See how to manage the freeze 4 counter videos to make them show the next number only on the good frame.



A good exercice.
I'm trying to ask to a youtuber its advice (powerdirector university) but no answer until here.

I agree that i don't start with the most easy projects :
