Hey Jordan,
Depending on what exactly you want accomplish, I suggest you two approaches:
1) A more emotional/human approach:
First make your soundlayer with samples from the web (eg. freesound.iua.upf.edu) or soundtrack pro from final cut pro.
Make this sound as lively and natural as possible.
Then do your textanimation in after effects, where you can animate already typed text character by character. there are many tutorials on this.
I guess this is the easiest way.2) a more mathematical approach:
with plugins like soundeffector for after effects or the sound plugin from mograph for Cinema4D you can load your soundfile and let something (here characters) appear on every beep, or click of your soundfile.
But I guess this is a very annoying way to get what you are looking for…best regards, Dominik.

Hey Andy
I agree with randy johnson, because (to me) there are two main reason to render image sequences and not movies:
1) you could already see mistakes in the first frames of the animation
2) if your computer crashes, only the frame he was working on is lost, and not the whole movie, you have been probably rendering since 2 days…so mostly to check only the animation, I render a so called editor-rendering, where no lights or textures are rendered. You just see what you already see in the editor, but in realtime! Huge advantage!
Still I render only image sequences. I never do movie renderings. But I guess that could be part of your own personal “taste” of workflow.kind regards, Dominik.

Hey Jasic,
well to me both videos seem to be identically, with no chopping edges. I had a similar problem once, but it had nothing to do with frame-rates (25fps is standard for PAL, 30fps for NTSC systems, if you don’t want to add slow-motion effects afterwards. then you should perhaps use a multiple framerate of your standard).
Well, back to the choppy edges problem: The Quicktime player sometimes changes the representation of the movie to low quality. But only you will see it and on other Computers it looks perfectly nice, or the other way around…
In Quicktime Player, choose “Window” and “Show Movie Properties” (Ctrl-J). In the opening window, select the Video Track, and under “Visual Settings”, “High Quality” should be checked.
Sometimes this is the only “problem” (the quality of visualisation).
Try. Hope it helps!
