  • arrange text to form a word

    Posted by Andy Burmeister on December 11, 2005 at 6:28 pm

    I have a jumble of text layers (all the same word) which I want to rearange to form a single larger textlayer of the same word, kind of like a swarm of bees that gets attracted to form a shape.

    I also want the swarm to be offset in Z and rotate independently before the form the word.

    What’s the best approach for this?
    I am thinking PP, Particular, Card Dance…..something in that nature.

    thanks
    🙂

    What version of AE do you have? Version 6.5 not only comes with great ways to animate your text, but also loads of preset animations you can apply to your text.

    I know it can do what you want.
