    Experts…

    I have Adobe Premier Pro CS3 only (dont have After Effects).

    Is there a way to show progessively building bullet points easily.
    The only current way I have figured out is to have muliple titles with an additional point on each title.

    Anyone know of a better way with only PP CS3?

    Many Thanks

    That’s it, at least outside of PowerPoint.

    On that FAQ, the third post by Mike Cohen is IMO the best way. Just build the whole list in Photoshop, being careful to make sure you’re keeping the type in the frame, and save each picture out. Then you can just use Premiere’s transitions to fade one on top of another.

    I usually make my text on separate layers and then just hide each layer before I save the file, that way I have the original PSD available for when you have to redo the list. If you have a TON of bulleted lists to “animate” in this fashion, file and directory organization is the key.

    If you make your leading big enough, you can just make one title, razor it at each cut point, then use the CROP tool to crop out the unneeded bullet points, and dissolve from clip to clip. In a pinch that is what I do.

    If going with a PSD. you can make each bullet point a separate photoshop layer, then import the PSD as a sequence and manipulate it that way.

    Or just do the multiple titles method.
    Many ways to do the same thing.
