Any Ideas/Flash text
Hello all.
Been brainstorming this morning, trying to come up with an easy way to Flash text in FCp with out using another program..
Heres my story..
I have a list of scroling text running bottom to top..
I want certain words in the list to flash, or grow when the VO, says the words..
Yeah I know I could drop it in Live Type but I have about 40+ lists that have to run up the screen..
I was thinking a magnify mask or something like that???
Any ideas or thoughts..
Thanks -

If you wish to do this in FCP, is NOT a simple thing, it is very complex.
You need to create and “roll” the text with “holes” where the “special” words need to be.
Then, on another track(s), you MATCH the motion of the basic rolling list with your “special” words.You can flash these words using [Video Filters > Video > Blink].
And/or you can cause these words to “grow” using “Scale” in the motion tab.
You might want to make these words in a larger font size to begin-with and reduce them to match the standard text, except when you want to emphasize them.Again, each “special” word must be its own “clip” playing in sync with the other “normal” text as it rolls by.
