I have been looking for how to reset an anchor point for maybe 2-3 years now and I found it in a tab I couldn't find playing audio on my laptop by complete accident. Subbed for that alone thanks pal!
What a very informative video. Most tuts i watch there either speaking fast, takes them ages to talk about 1 thing or too quiet. You just earnt yourself another subscriber keep up the good work👊
Allison I think you're right! Although if it's moving to the left it's probably right-aligned. Victor, in the Paragraph tab change the text justification to centre and that should fix it, although you will need to reposition the text when you make that change
Great video! New question, Is there a way to copy those presets and paste them into a different text title in the same clip or do I have to go through the same process again?
Sure, just click on animation again where you got the tracking option from, and then choose Rotation, and keyframe that where you want it to be. It should rotate the letter randomly since you've applied the animation after the random offset function. Let me know how that works for you
You da best! Its kinda there! But its rotation on the wrong axis! Its rotation off the bottom line versus rotating on the center point of each letter! But ill keep playing around and see if I can get it to work!
Sure, type out each letter as an individual layer then keyframe a Gaussian Blur effect with an offset on each letter so they blur in and out of focus at different times. Then also keyframe the opacity of the layers to fade in and out with the blur. OR You can just buy my Essential Graphics preset which will do it all for you 😉 sellfy.com/dodmedia/p/5pUp/
@@dodmedia Master! Once I create the effect in After Effects, how can I add it to my Adobe Premier Project, do you have maybe a video explaining it. Thank u are the best!
There probably is a way with expressions but the math is beyond me. Your best bet would be to create your sentence like this, then mask out the letters you want to use to spell something out so you can place individual new text layers there instead and match them so they look and animate the same way. That way you have complete control over each masked letter while the rest remains random in terms of animation
Would this work alongside text tracking? Essentially I want to make a focus pull but also include that focus pull on artificial text behind my subject…
@@dodmedia I wasn’t wanting to blur separate parts of the text actually. I just wanted to know how to create a blur effect on text. I’m familiar with Final Cut Pro but have recently switched to Adobe after switching to an iPad. Now I need to use my gaming pc. So still learning the basics on premiere lol.
Oh right! In that case just apply the blur effect you want to the text layer rather than this method. This will affect each character in your text layer separately. The Camera Lens Blur will give you the most realistic blur if you're doing camera focus racks
No easy way unfortunately. Best bet is that you make your text layer how you want it, add the Gausian Blur effect, keyframe it to the timing you want, then duplicate the layer so you've got 3 or 4 copies stacked up. Then mask out letters with the Opacity mask across all the layers so each layer reveals specific letters, then stagger the layers on the timeline so they're not all unblurring at the same time. You'll get the same effect, and the more layer copies you make, the more of a random effect you can achieve.
When all the letters of the word you want to remain are 100% opaque, superimpose a duplicate of that word without any of the opacity and blur animations. That way as the other letters and words fade away, that one word will stay up on screen. 💪
You can send it to Media Encoder to make an mp4 or MOV file or use the render queue to export a lossless animation you can overlay directly on your footage.
how long should one leave a title up for? or how long should transitions be? etc. much appreciated. Here's a UX viewpoint: if you made a blog post to follow allow it would help greatly. as a beginner in AE, it's like being a 1st grader in AE.. but don't infantilize me...I'm sure there are things that you are a 1st grader in some topics lol and having adhd sucks because i have to go back over and over when people go too fast- that's generally a good thing for the expert in translation to the working world as that is less billable time to the employer.. but if teaching and trying to be inclusive to novice AE people ya don't wanna miss some steps because it may discourage some because they can't figure out what they need to do and a fraction of such users may give up... to never return. Which can be a good thing: less possible competition? Or a bad thing: They just keep making crappy cringeworthy video and rehashing trite memes until they are 83.
I'd say a title should range anywhere from 3 to 8 seconds. Obviously it depends. Might be it only needs 2 seconds on screen, might be it needs 15 seconds while the edit behind it changes rapidly. But as rule of thumb I wouldn't keep a title up for more than 8 seconds especially if it's the one shot behind it or just a blank screen. It's a good idea about writing a blog to accompany it so that you don't have to keep going back in the video, I could do that for my website, and it would certainly help users who have ADHD or who aren't native English speakers. I understand Ae is a super complex program, especially from the viewpoint of a beginner, and certainly didn't mean to infantilise you, but your original comment didn't exactly give me much to go on. Are you saying the title was too fast? The tutorial was too fast? That you left after 5 seconds? Feedback like your second comment is always appreciated, and gives me ideas about how I can improve my teaching. But that first comment helps nothing and no one.
DOD Media Some editing theory describes you, as an editor, should read the text out lout three times before it disappears again. That’s a general rule of thumb to make sure people who read it for the first time are able to take in the entire text.
I've heard 2 times, I've heard you should be able to inhale a full breath after finished reading, there are lots of theories but since everyone reads at different speeds it doesn't mean much. With my infographic work, timing is crucial, and I guarantee you it doesn't stay on long enough to read 3 times out loud. You've just got to feel how long it needs to be, and if you're unsure ask someone to have eyes on it and say what they felt.
I basically made that entire montage to use that CRAZY track! 😆

thank you
what an amazing video. I learned so much honestly. Very clear and concise and straight to the point. Thanks! You deserve more views!
So simple and useful boss, really appreciate you posting this. This is going to be so so helpful in future projects. Keep up the great work!
Thankyou.
Very useful and because I'm learning typography its a awesome simple effect to learn and doing it often..
Thank you for the class
You're very welcome!
Thank you!
Great work, loving the intro footage. Got pretty cold last week!
THANK YOU SO MUCH.. this is a PERFECT tutorial!!!!!!!! Thanks!
What a very informative video. Most tuts i watch there either speaking fast, takes them ages to talk about 1 thing or too quiet. You just earnt yourself another subscriber keep up the good work👊
Awesome 😀
thanks a lot for the trick !
EXACTLY what I wanted! thank you! Liked :) going to use this on my next cinematic video
you saved me and my project i love you
Great video! Very well explained thanks dude!
thank you m8 , very nice tutorial ! , hope you are well and teach us more !
Great tutorial! Looks great, I really want to learn more after effects, so much fun
Great tutorial - easy to follow along. A+
Amazing! Super useful 👍

i like this tutorial. really helped me a lot in our music video. thanks my bro. cheers and God bless to you
Would love to see it when it's done!
love this thanks
What font is that??
Great tutorial!
wonderful. thank you so much and take my subscription!
Excellent! Thanks! rp
idk why by when I add the tracking effect, and track it 15, the anchor point moves to the left...
It's probably because your text isn't center-aligned in the paragraph tab, but rather left-aligned.
Allison I think you're right! Although if it's moving to the left it's probably right-aligned. Victor, in the Paragraph tab change the text justification to centre and that should fix it, although you will need to reposition the text when you make that change
coool thanks!
This video is amazing, thank you so much!
Does anyone know how to achieve this effect on CSS? it's such a beautiful effect for a website
Great video! New question, Is there a way to copy those presets and paste them into a different text title in the same clip or do I have to go through the same process again?
starts > 2:00
Is there a way to use this method but rather than them just fade away, its a slow rotation to each letter as well as the fade?
Sure, just click on animation again where you got the tracking option from, and then choose Rotation, and keyframe that where you want it to be. It should rotate the letter randomly since you've applied the animation after the random offset function. Let me know how that works for you
You da best! Its kinda there! But its rotation on the wrong axis! Its rotation off the bottom line versus rotating on the center point of each letter! But ill keep playing around and see if I can get it to work!
I GOT IT! THank you so much!!!!!!!
Great Video!! Is there a way to do a similar effect in Adobe Premier Pro?
Sure, type out each letter as an individual layer then keyframe a Gaussian Blur effect with an offset on each letter so they blur in and out of focus at different times. Then also keyframe the opacity of the layers to fade in and out with the blur.

Great Vid! Is there a way to select what letters fade out first? I want to form a phrase with the letters remaining before fading. Thanks!

Let me know if that makes sense. Not sure what your level is with after effects!
Yeah! Great solution. I had thought of rewriting the letters I want to keep, but think this way is easier. Thank you!

It might look odd as some characters are in focus before others. Unless that's the look you want?

How can i export to swf?? Help meee!!
Great tutorial, but I've a question: how I can fade the text, but let one single word remain?
When all the letters of the word you want to remain are 100% opaque, superimpose a duplicate of that word without any of the opacity and blur animations. That way as the other letters and words fade away, that one word will stay up on screen. 💪
is there any way to have this preset in premiere pro?
There is! I included it in my titles and lower thirds pack for premiere pro: sellfy.com/p/jTic/
1st intro, What music is that I like it
Intro
Does it work, or can it work on Adobe Premiere? If yes, how?
Yep in fact I made a Motion Graphics Template to be imported into Premiere
@@dodmedia is it possible that you send it to me? it would be great !
You can get it on sellfy.com/dodmedia
😍
And how can i export this sequence to a video?
You can send it to Media Encoder to make an mp4 or MOV file or use the render queue to export a lossless animation you can overlay directly on your footage.
DOD Media ahaa, thanks mate!
Name of font?
You can see in the video it's a font called Nexa Light. It's a free minimalist font, you should be able to find it with a google search
WOW... wayyyy too fast.. *leaves after 5 seconds*

Great Tutorial 🙌🙌
But When I Animate Traking It's Happen In One Direction Not Both 🥲
Make sure your text is justified centre not left 👌
Thank you
