  text animation question

  Posted by Mary Waitrovich on March 4, 2010 at 11:12 pm

  I have about fifty different words in a random cloud shape that I want to have appear one by one in about 3 seconds. Is there a text animation preset for this? Do I have to put each word on a different layer? Can I make my shape with words on separate layers (or the same layer) in either Illustrator or photoshop and then import into AE for the animation? If so, what method would I then use to do the animation?

  thanks much for any answers.

  In case this thread turns up in a subsequent forum search or Google search, here’s a link to an identical thread that has answers.
  (For the record, there’s no need to cross-post on the COW AE forums, most of us are in both forums.)
