great video! I learned something new and useful, but is there a way to change the location of an individual letter? I'd like to take a word and then shift letter to the left to create something like an acronym.
Sometimes you need to mess with it a little bit. You may need to animate backwards. Or you may need to reset the keyframeso on the main page of the effect. On the effect there is a keyframe that is under the text box that could be messing with the ability to animate properly. I've had the same issue before but can't remember exactly how I fixed it. I hope this helps!
@@Iamandrewellis I could be wrong but few days ago in another tutorial I believe I saw someone checked a box or something to achieve that. while watching I thought I will remember it but now its gone.
Hey so I spent about 2 hours to no avail trying to work this out with 3d text. I've copied and pasted the 2d text on the 3d but it messed everything up and I've tried connecting the 3d text to the 2d but it messed up my x and y axis scaling
Hmmm I wonder what's going on. I just tested it out with a 3D text node. What I noticed was that the animation wasn't necessarily previewing until after I had already set the key frames I wanted for the animation, and I had to do all the keyframing inside the modifier tab not on the normal text tab. Try that out and see if it works. (keyframe the 3D text from the modifier tab and make sure you have a delay set to at least 2 frames) Let me know if that helps
@@Iamandrewellis Hello, just in case you still reply here, I am also trying this out with a 3d text but when I want to animate an individual letter in the modifier tab, there are no options shown in any of the categories (text, transform, styling) Do you know why that may be the case?
@@shmoka01 I don't know why that's the case. It's possible that the 3D text acts a bit differently than the other text nodes. I've found there are some aspects of Davinci resolve that don't translate between nodes.
Yeah, you just need to animate the opacity in the opposite direction, so if you want each letter to stay on for a set number of frames like 10 frames, go 10 more frames into the composition and then animate the opacity to go from 1 to 0 and each letter should follow that same animation. :)
@@Iamandrewellis would I use character styling to highlight one letter then add keyframe at start with no opacity then at when I want it gone make keyframe and put opacity in till you can’t see letter?
You could do that but there's a better way. I'm realizing now that I thought this was from my video on the follower modifier. You should watch the follower modifier video to learn how to make each letter fade off individually. Here's the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gVJWnX0Ctho.html
