  • Changing words that are in motion using camera too with 4 views.

    Good morning.

    An After Efx artist created a piece that has 26 words that are flat, but animated using the Camera tool that has 4 views.

    Now when I go to the layer that has the nested words, I can see all the channels, but cant find a way to easily change the words. Changing font size is no problem.

    I’m a great editor, but not an After Effect head. Is there someone out there who can tell me if there is a simple way to type in the new words without stepping back to the camera view which is a very cumbersome method.

    I shall be eternally grateful.

    Eric

    Many thanks.

    If the words are precomposed, you have to go into each precomp to change them. I’m not quite sure that’s what’s happening though. Can you upload a screenshot of the project? Because you aren’t familiar with AE, your description is a little confusing, so a screenshot could clear that all up.
