akribie,
thanks that is what i was looking for. Sorry to bother you again, but when I setup the strobe effect the text blinks from the color i chose (yellow) to white and then back each time it blinks.
Is there a way to make it so that it blinks with the video background instead of the white?
thanks again for your help.

akribie,
Thanks again, Sorry about that I was not paying attention that there was more options in the control panel. I had the window small and did not notice I could scroll down or expand it to see the other options. This is great, it is exactly how I want the text to blink.
Once again thanks, I really appreciat it.

Arkribie,
Figured, since you seem to be a guru at premiere. I was wondering if you know how to make text stretch across the screen as it comes into the video and then stretch back out.
If you may have guessed I am converting from MS Movie Maker to Premiere. If you are not sure what I am asking you can find this stretch option in Movie Maker. If you don't have MM you can down load it free The only draw back is you need to be running XP.
If I am bothering you please let me know and I will not ask my questions directly to you. If there is anything I may be able to help you with let me know also.
Thanks

I don't use MM, so am not sure of the exact effect you are after. If you give me a good description, I might be able to figure a way of doing it in Premiere.
I'm just off to drive a canal boat for a few hours, so I won't be answering so quickly this time.

Ok, No problem. Here is a clip of what I am talking about. It is only 5mb. If you want it to be smaller so you can download it faster let me know.
Thanks
Thanks
OK. Nice Porsches !
Make your title in the titler at the size and shape you want when it is in its natural text size and position.
Apply the Transform Effect with keyframes to animate the Scale Width parameter.
Use the opacity rubber bands to fade in/out.
FWIW, to get smoother a hand-held steadicam effect without having a proper steadicam, I find that adding a wide angle adaptor to the camera reduces considerably the visual impact of wobbles. Another trick is to put the camera on a tripod, but with the tripod legs retracted and folded in. Hold the combination just below the camera, which lets the mass of the tripod act as a pendulous damper.
