    Unwanted Wavy text

    Posted by Steve Woronko on August 30, 2008 at 5:39 pm

    I’ve never had this problem before. I created a template in Motion. Opened it up in FCP, changed the text. It plays fine in Motion and FCP until I rendered it.
    I’ve never had this issue until I upgraded to FCP6 and Motion 3, so I’m clueless. How do I go about correcting this and not to keep this from happening again.

    thanks in advance,
    Steve

    Describe “wavy.”

    This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”

    The edge of the text kind of has a gray/white gradient when it’s still, but it’s like a flicker.
    I was using the impact font @ 96px, it scrolled from right to left. As I said, it looks fine in Motion, and in preview in FCP, but when I render it, that’s when the waving happens.

    I’m not sure how to post a pic to this board or I would, it’d make more sense to see it. I’m just confused on why it only happens after the render.

    any help is always appreciated,
    thanks,
