What's a good software package for animated titles & credits?

Hi,
As the title of this thread suggests, do you know of a good software package for the creation of animated titles and credits? I'm looking for something that will enable me to knock up a snazzy title sequence and then be able to export it to my video editing suite (Studio 11).

Any help greatly appreciated, thanks in advance

Well, no replies!

Does that mean that there's no software out there or are you all too busy to reply?

I guess I'll answer my own question; upgrade to Studio 12 and learn Flash! Thanks...

The software are a little less popular on the Non Pro level in part because some of the packages come with cut down versions of such ( like Pro DAD Adorage and Pinnacle Studio) or they are surplus to most folks requirments
You may not need to learn Flash although that wouldnt be a bad thing even if it is a tad painful getting to grips with

!
Avid Liquid 7 has way more than enough compositing plug-ins to satisfy most folk and Vegas Pro has a better titler than it used to. They may be enough to do all but the most highly indiviualised animated titling . Avid Liquid had powerful 2D or 3D FX editors which take things beyond tha abiltities of the bundled Title Deko Pro ( also available separately)
OK, software ( apart from TDP linked above):
Cool 3D Studio by Ulead is one.
However Pinnacle Studio has the Adorage
plug-in which does do it and can be upgraded to the full versions
Be aware, they have a bit of a learning curve though

Thank you for the reply

. I've downloaded the Adorage trial for Pinnacle Studio and will have a play with it. I'll still brush up on my Flash as well though!

Cheers...

Have a look at Bluff Titler, very easy,very affective and very cheap.
Take a look in the gallery section at the downloadable media files, which can be fully customised to suite your requirements.
