This effect works the same for any still or motion clip. That’s just because these images have the lines I’m using to illustrate this effect. NOTE: You may notice that I’m using PNGs and JPEGs in this article. The duration of the text clip solely determines the duration of this effect. These clips are all the same length, but that is not required for this to work. NOTE: The easiest way to duplicate a clip is to press the Option ( Alt) key and drag the clip.
Next, create a “sandwich” in the Timeline, where the title is on V2, with the background image on V1 and a duplicate image on V3. NOTE: Positioning the text where you want it to appear simplifies creating the mask, though you can alway adjust an errant title using the Motion setting later. Notice that I positioned the title so it spans the line through which I want it to rise. (Any image with a strong horizontal or vertical edge works well with this effect.) I want to animate a title rising out of the sea at the horizon line.
This article grew out of an email suggestion from Dick Osso, where he thought it would be good idea to write about some simpler effects that are still, um, effective to use. In this example, I’ll show you two ways to animate a title (or any clip) through the middle of a frame.
