Today I go through 5 different and sexy text animations BUT these techniques aren’t exclusive to that. They can all either be used for shapes, icons, or even real world footage as well. The last one in particular holds a special place in my heart.

The 3rd one's effort is insane for a simple effect....

[@mapal]

It’s definitely a lot of work but that’s often how it goes. Craziest stuff ends up looking the simplest and I love it

[@stephanzammit]

Great Video! They are really getting better! 😊 btw, what screen recorder are you using? Does it do the zoom Ins/ out on its own?

Thank you, I appreciate it! I use ScreenStudio which does the zoom ins/outs and the keystrokes

22:35 - You show us how to make that glass effect, but what’s the point if you don’t explain the most important part-the vibration effect? That’s the core of the animation, right? Feels like a complete waste of my time and effort. Appreciate that.👏🏻

[@tiagocardoso4434]

Awesome!!

[@tanay_sankhe]

Great tutorial, mate💯. I just came across your channel and am wondering if you have edited this tutorial video with AE as well, considering the smooth zoom in and outs.

[@mapal]

Thank you! No, I use ScreenStudio, which does all the zooms and tracking of the mouse. I edit the tutorials in Davinci

[@tanay_sankhe]

@@mapal Amazing, thanks.

[@EdsonJuniordj]

22:28 Could you create a tutorial teaching how to make that effect that happens on the iPhone screen when we use AirDrop? I believe that this "05 - Chromatic Distortion" pipeline can help with that.

[@polinashakirova8676]

Wow!! You have very cool lessons, thank you for that! Please tell me how you placed the gradient in this way on the segment 04 - Glass 22:33?

[@rohithpadikkal7082]

Hi Mapal, just wanted to say, thank you for yet another banger of a tutorial! I'm sort of a newbie here, how did you add a slight shake/wobble to your animations that you showed as the final output in the intro?

[@mapal]

I use an adjustment layer with a transform effect on it. I add a wiggle expression to the position parameter and then increase the scale to 101-102 to make sure my edges are always covered

[@rohithpadikkal7082]

@@mapal thank you so much! I tried it out and it works! 🫂

[@ineskolenc5841]

Nice work man! Im having trouble animating the Glass animation. Any tips please?

[@mapal]

I mean you can go as crazy as you want with it. Easiest is to try and just play with the position and see what you can get with that

[@keianllauderes]

Great work as always! Been inspired to learn AE because of you! Can you share your export settings? Cause my exported text animations have jagged edges to them but when I'm in AE they look fine. Idk what to do 😅

[@mapal]

I always export in ProRes 422 or 4444 depending on whether I need a transparent background or not. Should give you crystal clear stuff

[@keianllauderes]

​@@mapalThank you so much! Switching to ProRes fixed the jagged edges. Hope you reach 100k subs soon! 💯🔥

What is the ease tool that you used at the beginning, is it a plug-in? Looks AMAZING!

Thanks for the video! I still don't get how you made the border around the region of interest at 12:22.

[@mapal]

Kinda hard to explain but I click it at around 11:50 and then its just about clicking and dragging in the comp itself. It's a button in that same area where you toggle transparency etc.

[@zhak2581]

Hello. Thak you for your tutorial, but I have a question. In first animation you use fast box blur and turn on reapet edge pixels, and and I reapit it, but my rectangle shapes cant blur. It looks like i use mask for my shapes, but I don't. And I can a little fix it, if I use backgound like a black solid it works like on you tutorial. But of course if somewhen I export this file without backgtound I cant do this. So maybe you or someone can help and explain me why it is not work? My Ae is 2019
