Hi there, my name is Georgie and I am a Senior Motion Designer mad about kinetic typography, motion graphics and anything design related. Born and raised in North East London.
Great tutorial! Have a quick question on the Track Matte section, how would you do this in the AE 23, as it seems to have changed and can't quite work it out? Thanks.
This is excellent! thank you. I was wondering if is there a way to animate the font weight but by characters with an expression? Similar to what we can do using the animators to animate scale, position, etc.
I'm not sure if things have changed with all the updates in the last few years, but for some reason I can only get regular white to black gradients to work. I made a reflected gradient in Photoshop like you said, but for some reason the effect doesn't work with it. (I wanted the reflected kind so the effect can start in the middle of the text like you have.) With the standard white to black, the text spills in from top to bottom which is okay but yours looks way cooler from the middle like an arrow. Any thoughts on why this doesn't work now?
hi, thanks for explaining in a cool and easy way... can u plz tell how the cursor changed to hand in the timeline panel while u were scrolling? (@3:04) i mean did u use keyboard shortcut there?
Hi, thanks a lot for this tutorial. I probably missed something presumably known for technique 2, as the shape's anchor points of each weight stance do no match each other. The shape starts and ends well, but it shifts very erratically. Any clues about what I might be missing? Thanks!
In case anybody had the shame issue, I just discovered in another tutorial that you must set the same "First vertex" in both start and end stances of the shape. Just select a vertex and right click into "Mask and shape path" to find it. Do it in both stances, for the same vertex, of course. Problem solved :)
Loving your channel, Georgie. It's been very helpful in leveling my text game up in personal and professional work. Thank you for taking the time to put these together and educating us on your great talent.
Hi Georgie I have followed your instructions and my file is not working. Here is my code: var array=[ "RobotoFlex-Thin", "RobotoFlex-ExtraLight", "RobotoFlex-Light", "RobotoFlex-Regular", "RobotoFlex-Medium", "RobotoFlex-SemiBold", "RobotoFlex-Bold", "RobotoFlex-ExtraBold", "RobotoFlex-Black", "RobotoFlex-ExtraBlack" ]; r = Math.round(thisComp.layer("Slider Control").effect("Font Weight")("Slider")); style.setFont(array[r]); Can you please check out me code to see if it is correct? Help Mr. Wizard. Lois
Hi Georgie, Thanks for this helpful tutorial. Is there a way in Technique 3 to put a ramp expression so for example the first letter is thin and the last letter is bold or vice versa. Have you got a link to a turorial? That would be helpful. Thanks Cyril
