Titling Can't Post

Can I add multiple titles within a single shot, sort of a C-
Span effect where I have four different panelists? I would like
to place their names under them as they are speaking. Will I
have to split each person into a seperate shots? On the
Prestige, I have the Titling Effects added. Thanks for any
suggestions.

Do these panelists occupy the screen separately? So you wish to place a lower 3rd title under each as we see them full-screen?
I would suggest one of two methods - the easiest might be to split the scene into the four separate shots (with each person occupying a different scene). Then you can place the title directly beneath each person.
Other method is to add title to the first person, using Range button (just beneath left side of Storyboard) to adjust the time so it is onscreen just long enough to intro that person.
Then you can create and make a scene of that (instant scene on SmartEdit 3.x).
Then you can add or replace that new scene to the SB and repeat until you have titled all four persons.
Of particular use to you (if you aren't already aware of the features) is Box Options in the Titling window. You can type in a persons name and then click on 'Min Size'. this will shrink the titling box around the name and then you can click on Move Box and position the titling box in the precise position you desire.
