Help re-creating an inverting text effect
Hi all. I’m on the tail end of re-creating a set of titles. I’ve skipped over this part quite a bit as I’ve failed to re-create them as faithfully as I can. Now I need to suss this one out in order to finish.
In the attached example video from the original titles you can see the white text “SASSO” transitions on over black text. I’m really struggling here. If you have the ability to frame through the video you can see it seems to start in the edges of the text and rapidly fills before inverting. The inversion isn’t within a proper square with right angles. It looks like a stroke of some sort that forms a trapezoid, but like I said, absolutely clueless here.
A friend suggested using a simple choker, which gets me something similar but it’s not the same. I thought the initial white text reveal could be a transition of some sort, but alas no dice. In theory this seems like it’s probably quite simple to achieve.
Any theories or advice appreciated.

use this effect, copy the settings as in the pic, automate radius from 0 to a higher number until you achieve that exact effect, that’s how they do that stuff, hope it helps you sleep well at night!

Rock star over here. I had played with minimax but didn’t try Minimum! Thank you!
Any theories on the inverted white text characters?

Scratch that. Played with additional layers using minimax and inverting one and managed to achieve something close enough. It flashes on screen so quickly it’s not immediately obvious it’s a bit different.
Minimax ftw.
