    Hi all

    Please could someone help me on how to make text look like its been written on the screen in AE. From left to right following the path of the text and not just a simple mask that scrolls past. I just cant seem to figure it out.

    Help would be much appriciated.

    Go to the tutorial section and search for tutorials for After Effects. There is a tutorial by John Dickinson “Handwritten text using AE’s Brush Tool”. I think this is what you are looking for.

    It takes some time, okay it’s takes a long time but if you are careful in creating your text in this way, you will get a great result.

    Hope this helps.
