How do i animate this word in?
Posted by Charles King on March 4, 2014 at 12:37 amI would like to animate these words in. “The” is synced with it’s audio counterpart but how do i go before “the” to animate it in? When the keyhead is before “the” it’s blank as you see there. thank you

March 4, 2014 at 12:44 amAre those text layers? They look like they are graphics.
Either way, you can simply drag the end to trim the media to the playhead.
To animate the text, if it’s a graphic your options are more limited. If it’s a text layer, you can use text behaviors to animate it.
