Why have I never thought of pickwhipping source text for multiple layers!! Thank you!

You have no clue how much time you have saved me by just watching your amazing tutorials!!! Not only that but my clients praise how much I've improved in a matter of days with your techniques! thanks, Ben!

There's also another text animation that's extremely common in sports media and networks. UFC uses it a lot in their presentations. It's mainly doing stroke to fill/fill to stroke text animations followed by scaling using stop keyframes I believe.

That tracking animator... So hidden, yet so good!!! Thanks Ben!!!

After Effect is that one and only Adobe program that I'm kinda afraid of, most surely just because I don't use it enough! Thanks for the great tips, I need to get into AE more again

@BenMarriott 3 года назад

Haha, It can definitely be scary... All those panels. I eventually got over it just from spending more time in it :)

@ZanStermecki 3 года назад

@@BenMarriott the scary part is that I was already okay with it years back, but now anymore haha - will get into it, thanks Ben!

11:00 It's actually much easier to use the right-most pickwhip. You can drag it straight to the other 'Source Text' without having to alt-click the stopwatch and it immediately generates the correct expression.

@hack2sorry242 3 года назад

High Benn, and to anyone as well... I've been designing for about 7 years now, but purely self-taught and basing my decisions on what I believe looks good/works...I know having a degree in Graphic design really helps but I don't have the means to enroll in such an academic program yet, what resources/materials are available for people like me, aspiring designer, to become up to par or even close to certified graphic designers? The materials you offer to this channel are top-tier yet you share these techniques for free, and we thank you for that. I mean...I don't skip ads. :D

@SoFlyIndustry 3 года назад

4:29 There is a much better way to animate this all in one layer. Avoid having an extra Matte layer everytime. Just animate position in the animate tab on the right of your text layer, not the actual position of the the layer, then create a mask around to what you want. Easy to move, same animation and all in one clean layer.

@markxtang 3 года назад

That's the method I would use as well, but this tutorial is clearly aimed at people trying to learn the basics (I know Ben does more technical tutorials as well), and IMO explaining that there are different "positions" to animate, as well as explaining layer masks seems like a bit more of a learning curve than introducing track mattes.

you what? I love that you explain things fast and going straight to the point. Many tutorials and courses (even paid ones) don't understand how important this is for professionals, who usually don't have the luxury of time.

@ugougotbs 3 года назад

Recently I got stuck with a client that insist me to use crazy effects on text transitions to the point I had to resort to outer glow, fill, scaling, blur, opacity, lens flare (on a subhead text) just to make them satisfied. I was soo frustrated with their direction, and I thought I was out of practice! It's good that I bumped into this video, to see the elegant minimal animation is still the standard practice, and assure myself that I just had a tasteless client. Thanks for the tutorial!

@bayarsaikhanbaasanbat9009 3 года назад

Hi Ben, I'm doing the tracking animation. My version is keep expanding from left to right, not from the middle like yours. Please let me know how I can fix it.

@mandoiii Год назад

I'm guessing Ben knows it but chooses not to use it, but in case it is useful for someone: the mask feather has two values, they are x and y. So if you need to feather in only one direction you cau use them separately and keep your masks a bit more under control. Thanks for the video 😁. Love the channel.

@EdwinvandenAkker 3 года назад

Nice video, Ben! A nice option is building the animation to be exported as a MOGRT. This way you have a nice template you can use in software like Premiere. This is very helpful, if you need to re-use certain animation, like titles. But I also made little MOGRT files with a thermometer, speedometer, etc. In Premiere I only have to set certain values I made available as properties. This saves a lot of time.

"Carl Friedrich Gauss" - that's a german mathematician's name. the "ss" is especially there to avoid turning it either to Z or to SH (and neither to C, like in "mathematician"). so it's NOT "goshian".
