  • Text Position Movement Problem

    Posted by Cameron Fontana on October 13, 2008 at 5:57 pm

    I’m trying to animate text by having it fly in (with motion blur), into a small movement over time, then fly out, again with motion blur. What seems to happen 80% of the time I try to do this is that the text will wiggle in the middle of the small movement, as if there were keyframes there, but there aren’t. I don’t know what causes it to do that, and its frustrating to not be able to accomplish such a simple task. Help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

    My assumption is your keyframe interpolation is set to bezier instead of linear.
    If you aren’t familiar with these terms, look up “Interpolation methods” in AE Help and watch Aharon’s tutorials on the “boomerang effect.”
