Descript Animation Basics | Create Animated Lower Thirds Template
Вставка

- How to create and use animations in Descript Storyboard. I demonstrate how you can animate objects on the canvas, moving a logo, sliding shapes and text, to create an animated lower thirds element in Descript.
I emphasize the practice of positioning the elements in their final on-screen locations before editing the initial and final points of the animation. I discuss the function of keyframes in animation, and the process of adding custom animations to selected clips.
Lastly, I show you how to save your created animations into a template for future use in your Descript projects.

Wow. Really needed this tutorial. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your comment.
I absolutely hate Descript’s text and animation options. Thank you for this.
It is quite limited and buggy.
Great tutorial as always.
Thank you!
Beautiful! Great tutorial Cristi, thank you so much.
Thank you so much!
This is great content. Glad to discover your page. I will be binging the archive!
Welcome aboard!
Very helpful, Cristi. Thanks.
You're so welcome!
This video is so good, thank you. I watched another persons video and this is so much easier to understand.
Are you going to share how to put animation in other places on the screen like in the middle?
Thanks a lot, glad you found this video useful!
Animation in other places, not sure what you mean. The principle is the same. Create the animation and in the two keyframes position the object where you want it before and after the animation.
Cristi - This is a awesome tutorial! thanks!! - Joe
thanks a lot, glad you think so!
I remember you from Camtasia tutorials. Why use Desyrpt if we already have Camtasia. I am curious to know how that would be of benefit to
Camtasia users. Thanks
Hi, yes, I still use Camtasia every day for a lot of my video editing. In fact, all my tutorials are recorded and edited in Camtasia.
But I do use Descript for some things that Camtasia has yet to catch up on:
- transcription
- creating social media clips
- editing podcasts
- collaborating with clients on their podcasts and courses
I'm not a one-tool guy. I will use all tools that help me achieve my goals and get the job done. Not loyal to any one in particular.
@@Graphicious I am not a one man tool guy either. The transcription part Audiate has and is made by Techsmith like Camtasia is. They work perfectly together. I edit podcasts with it with no problem. I was just curious what I needed Desript for. It sounds as if as long as I have Audiate that I don’t need it. Unless I am missing something that you stated. I don’t mind learning a new tool , but I can’t figure out what it does that Audiate and Camtasia doesn’t do.
Descript has way more features -- it invades Camtasia's space quite a lot. In addition to transcription and removing filler words (like Audiate does), Descript has a very powerful collaboration component. It also has a few more audio effects that Audiate does not. And best of all, the price is less than Audiate and it doesn't require the roundtrip from Camtasia. I wish Audiate were part of Camtasia. That's when it would get pretty close to Descript. One can only hope. Maybe version 2029 or something! :D
