Zoom out smash effect
Posted by Victor Drăguşanu on July 24, 2013 at 7:28 pmHi, guys!
I was looking at the Movie Maker title effects and I’d really like to know if there’s any way I can put a zoom out effect on a text in AE, similar to the one in Movie Maker. I would also like it to look like it’s smashed against a wall at a fast speed (I don’t want the actual wall effect, I just want it to stop zooming suddenly like it would’ve hit a hall).
Thanks in advance!

July 24, 2013 at 10:27 pmYes, that would be very simple to do. Sounds like you are very new to AE, so I would strongly suggest you check out Getting started with After Effects (CS4, CS5, CS5.5, CS6, & CC). Point #4 links to 2 very good programs for getting started out, if you want to jump right in, check out Andrew Kramer’s tutorials, for a fuller more detailed program Andrew Devis.

July 25, 2013 at 12:57 pmThank you very much! I watched a couple of tutorials from Andrew Kramer and I already learnt a lot! Still haven’t managed to properly do what I want to, but I’m definitely getting there.

July 25, 2013 at 2:41 pmI would check out this camera shake tutorial. This is very popular to do when the texts “hits the non-visible wall” : https://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials/camera_shake_with_wiggler/

July 25, 2013 at 4:06 pmIf Stephen’s idea isn’t exactly what you are trying to accomplish, if you can link us to a video that shows us the effect you are trying to create that would go a long way for us to point you in the right direction.

I would like to do something more simple as the letters should be zoomed from center and there’s no need to spin them. Also, in this video, the letters sort of hit each other, I would want them to hit the center of the composition, like an ‘invisible wall’.
This is what I have found right now, maybe I can find a better example later.

July 26, 2013 at 2:44 pmTo me the big differeance is that the logo shakes and not the camera. Is that what you are after?
