Brilliant stuff Sergei!
Thanks for this kind of tutorials Sergey. Very useful🙏
Even though it was a lot, its exactly what i was looking for with such great brief explanations. Thanks bruv
Thanks for taking the time to record the video. One tinny suggestion though. The code to generate the mask as a bounding box is a little too long. Here is a 2-line version:
a = thisLayer.sourceRectAtTime();
createPath([[a.left,a.top+a.height], [a.left+a.width, a.top+a.height], [a.left+a.width,a.top], [a.left,a.top]]);
Works automatically with any type of text alignment.
Great one!
Mic drop. I love seeing other people’s solution.
you are a life savior
WoW, you are amazing...
Thank you for this. Do you know by any chance how to generate masks for a multi line text? So each line has it's own mask
I am very glad that I stumbled upon your video
Thanks for the video, very helpful and well explained. Off to make so soft
thanks, it actually let me through so i could download it.
I use smart mask, but now i know how it work, thank you Sergei
Wow, this is huge. I'm looking since forever for a way to realize this exact kind of text animation on the single layer only (without the need for an extra matte layer I mean) and fully procedurally. Thanks a lot for this!
I'm glad you found this useful, Daniel! Thanks for watching it!

Thank you for your kind words, Catalin!
@@ukramedia Anytime! You are more than welcome!
Thats awesome 👍
Thank you!
Thank you sir
I love this video!! It really helped me out a lot - i was stuck and it was exactly what I was looking for.
Just a quick note on your javascript: ideally, it's best practice to use var or let instead of const, since const is intended for variables that won't change. JS is letting you use const here because you're changing values inside of arrays/objects. So while this is working for now, it's not best practice and makes the code a little harder to read :)
yes
its actually useful :D
😁
I ca back to soft after about 10 years when I was using soft soft 10 and for its best program Ive seen in fact its also simpliest one
and thank you for your effort. If you can make a video about Lo-Fi soft, that would be aweso!
Great expression! It's very convenient to use! One question is that if I have 3 lines text, how to rewrite the expression and create a mask for each line without cutting some bottom parts of the character like "g, y, j"
Thats some deeeep JavaScript/ expressions knowledge. I wonder if this was possible with the old Ae expressions system…
Hey, I just wanted to check briesofty if there is a way for to import a new soft into the program, for example softs or sotNice tutorialng that
Regardless of how important the information is
👍💖
😁
thanks for great tutorial, but is it possible to make mask with rounded edges using this method?
Yes, I'll have to make a tutorial on that.
Is there a video teaching to create an animations using all your tools?
I want to buy your bundle but I can't find a way how to use them together.
Aaahhh thooooo
Thank you for tNice tutorials video. I just downloaded soft soft and I was so, so lost. I couldn't even figure out how to make a soft. Your video
once i buy the basic version of soft soft can i upgrade to producer for 100 dollars or do i have to buy it new for 0?
If I want to save my project in soft soft, do I have to buy it?
100% I make the sickest soft in my head all day long then the mont I open a DAW...
this made sense until the arrow function. Is "item" a variable you created and then modified and re-output using the arrow function?
@ukramedia Thanks for this. I was wondering about more complex shapes such as a hectagon rectangle like pointed left and right edge of a box? Something like this shape. How to do this? Could you help?
how do you get all the tutorial and samples on the left. mine doesnt have sNice tutorialt
Studying how to use soft soft is far more important than studying for my exams lmao
More slots in user presets for Smart Text Animator please 🙏🏻😁 9 is not enough 😞 ... Cheers 😁
Thanks for the feedback and for using my tools! I appreciate it a lot.
@@ukramedia Best tools ever ! ♥ I am so proud of your work and me investing in having a copy of the smart tools.
Hello. I tried to replicate this but I get an error on line 2: const { height, width, left, top } = sourceRectAtTime(layerMidPoint);
- error says: Variable name expeted.
Any suggestion? Thank you for sharing.
Im getting same error - did you figure it out?
File > Project Settings > Expressions > Expressions Engine - [Java Script]
When use this code as your then say error variable name expected
Plz Help
const { height,width, left, top } = sourceRectAtTime();
const topL = [0,0];
const topR = [width, 0];
const bttmR = [width, height];
const bttmL = [0, height];
const pathPoints = [topL, topR, bttmR, bttmL];
createPath(pathPoints);
just cutting to ut already open
what is "const"? Why have i never seen that before in AE expression tutorials/reference material?
i have a pretty limited knowledge of expressions, but I believe that 'const' is just a randomly assigned name for a variable that he's designated in his code. if i understand correctly you could also use 'var' or anything your heart desires so long as it isn't an already existing property.
Why const instead of var? What's the diference?
You can learn more about it here: www.freecodecamp.org/news/var-let-and-const-whats-the-difference/
bruh i just got it yesterday and it looks like spacesNice tutorialp controls thx for your help
Did they finnnnnallly allow expressions on masks?!
Yup, they did.
