Text animation
That brief moment
when a title appears.

01 / IN PRACTICEThe editing process
The editing process
matters as much as the result.
Font and layout
Organize multiline text and adjust its size and alignment.
Movement that fits the scene
Refine animation duration and position to match the clip’s rhythm.
Opening titles
Set reading time first.
If a title disappears as soon as its movement ends, the message will not land. Leave time to read between its entrance, hold, and exit, then tune it to the video’s pace.
Scene descriptions
Product names
Use shorter units than a sentence.
Instead of moving a long explanation all at once, separate the title from the supporting copy. Bringing them in at different times naturally distinguishes what viewers should read first.

03 / GOOD TO KNOW
Check before you edit.
Should I recheck the animation after changing the font?
The letter width and line breaks may change. After changing text or a font, play from beginning to end and check that nothing is cut off.
What should I check before using it?
Line breaks and animation results vary with text length and the chosen font.
