    Hi people,

    I’m trying to make a Once Upon a Time in the West credit parody. I’d like some titles to start moving from things within the screen, let’s say a person or a wall. So they don’t start out of the frame, but inside the frame.
    Any ideas on how to get that effect?

    thanks
    Ron

    Hi Ron,

    Use the Adobe Motion effect to scale and move the titles, in other words start out small and expand from the wall or person, in the direction you want.

    Use Opacity to start out transparent and fade in as the motion starts.

    These effects will need to be keyframed. Check the HELP file to learn more

    Perhaps I shouldn’t have posted this in the basics forum. I don’t want a standard moving title, but it has to start from within the frame. So you can’t just animate it to move, cause then it’d not give the impression to come out of something inside the frame.

    I’ve added a picture to show what I mean. I’ve been using Premiere Pro for a couple of years now, but it’s the first time i’m trying this effect.

    Hi Ron,

    It looks like “Charles Bronson” is coming out from behind the building, is that what you’re after?

    Put your video clip on V1, title on V2 and add animation. Put copy of video clip on V3 and apply CROP filter, this would allow you to have the title be partially obscured to “come out from behind” an object by adjusting the cropping of the overlay video.

    Thanks! That did the trick.
