Easy Text Animations in After Effects (Tutorial)

[@vanyanapylov]

Man your videos are so great, I like these "little bit of spice" moments that make every animation looks so stylish. thank you so much for your hard work, keep it up!

[@mapal]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@adyasrivastava4905]

THE INTRO ANIMATION BEFORE EVERY TOPIC??? THAT'S THE REAL SAUCE

[@mapal]

The title cards are like my babies!

[@seencapone]

Animating your subtitle text that way is nuts. Just apply a text animator. One layer is all you need. That’s what it was designed for.

[@28isagreatnumber]

Seriously! I’m almost pulling my hair out at this other method haha

[@valeria-mj4zo]

Wow, I'm always so impressed by your videos! It's such a pleasure to see them. Thank you for sharing!

[@nbhd996]

bro you killing it everytime you use new text animation on different videos !

[@khushalgehlot1646]

[@mapal]

Happy to hear that!

[@נעמיקריספל]

[@Rahul_.786]

Respect and love for your art❤️ thnks for this vedio🫶🏻

[@CashMoneyChris]

never skip a mapal video ☝

[@will41n]

thank you so much for creating these videos! ive been following you since your first ae tutorials and watched every single one. ive learned to much about ae, thank you for sharing your knowlege! ☆ also the keyboard sounds are so soothing, very pleasing to listen to as a video background, adds some pleasant noise :3c

[@mapal]

Wow that’s awesome! Happy that you’ve found the videos good enough to stick around for that long! I love the keyboard sounds. I need to mod it, which should make it sound even better

[@the.slimshady]

Big fan form Ethiopia bro keep posting us this kind of videos 🙏🙏🙏

[@arkreatives]

Amazing video boss! Learned a lot! I'll try to merge these with my 3d renders for some interesting look. Thanks again!

[@mapal]

That could be sick!

[@theanimerealm22]

Love it 💜

top as usual ❤

[@timodziallas4374]

Thank you for your work !

[@vinaykumarchaurasia2550]

Great man❤🫡

[@realDahenzi]

Mapal: it’s super simple My brain: explodes 🤯 All jokes aside, bro, you motivated me to dive into AE after a 3 year break. Keep posting your videos ❤ Thank you for your hard work!

[@mapal]

Hahahah! That’s awesome though!!! Keep at it

[@3reaper]

for the first one you could make that in 2 seconds with fade up characters and just keyframe the percentages to the words, then going into keyframe assistant, toggle hold keyframes

[@mapal]

Yes but you're kinda missing the point there. The whole point of the first one is to set you up for the saucy version, which you can't just do with text animators.

[@3reaper]

@@mapal ah okay that makes a lot more sense, thanks

[@filipe_aires]

dope tuto, broo...

[@mapal]

Appreciate it!

[@andreborba]

mapal the 🐐

[@pandoedits.]

i love this video, can you make a tutorial on the animation between each tutorial

[@mapal]

Thank you! I could probably do that hehe

[@suwan513]

@mapal you and skymography have some of these most aesthetic tutorials and videos in general. Just curious are you self taught or learned the software through school/courses?

[@mapal]

Appreciate that! Sky is the goat fr! But to answer your question, I am self taught. Learned everything through KZbin and picking up things I see in the world around me

[@robinsingh9789]

map please make a short video on this It’s a posterise time + wiggle expression applied to the position parameter! I'm unable to do it please help

[@fourtwoway5700]

pls, tutorial on how to get this type of film halation look, really need that asap

[@mapal]

DaVinci resolve.

[@hjogiscool]

we GOTTA see how those title cards are made

[@mapal]

Might have to do a video on it HMMM

[@marvinmakingvideos]

what is the benefit of doing it this way vs automatic captions and editing them in premiere?

[@Yuris_vfx]

Ik this is a older video but was the animation on the word “sponsored “ on the artlist sponsor in the intro?

[@MelissaRAZAF]

Great video as usual !! 🎉🎉 how did you find your style??

[@mapal]

Thank you! A lot of playing around and trying different things. I think when you do something for long enough and experiment you eventually find things you like. Kinda like making a smoothie. Just mixing different things you like and eventually you get your own recipe

[@Atmeg]

9:24 thanks!

[@yigitefe8957]

pls do patticus

[@Videoexplain21]

hi bro could you make video on how to edit like internet anarchist

[@footy-kick7]

make video about football animation😍

[@farhat-z7o1c]

0:24 that noise is super cool....How

[@mapal]

That’s the sauce

[@farhat-z7o1c]

@@mapal Yeah

[@SimpleWz]

a tutorial on how to make the negative transition 😁

[@mapal]

It’s from an acidbite pack

[@skipppppppa]

im curious if you edit at all in premiere pro? or is majority of work possible in just after effects? curious how someone would choose when to move a project from pp to ae, or is it just constantly back n forth, or would it be like making the video edit in premiere pro entirely then just exporting it into ae or something... (I'm clearly on a mapal binge right now commenting everywhere lol)

[@mapal]

Any sort of animation I do in Ae. I’ll typically render out small sections of clips where I need animations then export the animation itself and put it back in my davinci timeline

[@skipppppppa]

@@mapal smart way to do it to help your GPU! Ill take that tip. do you not use premiere pro at all? just davinci instead? surprised as iirc that's free

[@parthfingerstyle2988]

How to add chrome glow finsih on the certain part of the circle like the one you did example-18:48 timeline

[@mapal]

In this specific instance each of those circles had a gradient from black to white. Then I added the extract effect to remove all the blacks and then added deep glow on top

[@alisheikh1582]

Hey bro, Which mouse do you use for editing? And What monitor do you use?

[@mapal]

I use an MX Master 3S for my mouse and I have an ASUS ProArt 32 inch 4k monitor

[@iWatchM0vies]

Yo I’m tryna make like a comic book type of title animation but not like a cheesy one. If you could make a video on something like that I’d appreciate it

[@mapal]

Hmmm that’s an interesting one! I’ll have a think on it

[@Zephriothae]

0:09 I need the settings for this

[@ragavendraeaswari6671]

Do some in DAVinci

[@octaeditings]

Hi Mapal, can you tell me what software to use to record your screen?

[@mapal]

I use ScreenStudio

[@octaeditings]

@@mapal Thank you mapal

[@ConorKeville]

What screen recording software do you use ?

[@mapal]

I use ScreenStudio

[@khurapatiii]

Form where you find inspiration to make tutorials?

[@mapal]

Work, Pinterest, social media, behance, stuff I see in the real world. Inspiration can come from so many different places

[@joshdiditt]

Can't you just use the Typewriter effect for the first one?

[@mapal]

For the very first one you could do a variation where you do it by word BUT you wouldn’t be able to combine it with the second variation in the same way.

[@angryconsultant]

Mapal quick question, I’ve noticed that some animators are highlighting text in black and then the font changes to white or a different color. Any idea on how to do this using pen tool and text in AE?

[@mapal]

Most likely just a blend mode. Could possibly be two different text layers but that would probably be too much work/unnecessary

[@tryzoffx]

couldn't you just use the effect "fade up words" for the first animations?

[@mapal]

Technically yes BUT you wouldn't be able to do the sexy variation and easily combine them. All about the use case

[@matildefogh]

Just a bit of feedback here. Really love the tutorials!!, but it's hard to watch a screen that moves all the time :(

[@mapal]

Noted!

[@user-fo9ce3hr5h]

I will definitely watch your video later. i have a question. my gpu is old (gt 1030 2gb) but my pc is i5-13600k and 32gb 6000 ddr5 ram. I heard from some that strong graphics do not affect the speed of working in After Effects. If I buy a rtx 3060 12gb, will it make me faster in after effects? what do you think? thanks.

[@mapal]

Ngl as a Mac user I have no clue about PC specs. All I know is for After Effects you definitely want to make sure you have a lot of RAM.

[@nbhd996]

GPUs an SSDs are most important when comes speed and rendering GPU is best thing to upgrade :) try get Nvidia card

[@Akii_edit]

Watch dope motions for specs regarding after effects

[@רומיארז-ע6ק]

whats the font name in the first tut?

[@mapal]

Helvetica

[@Beregovgrish]

how did you do those shape and text transitions in the video?

[@mapal]

The title cards with the circles or?

[@tunetones]

26:46 font name pls

[@mapal]

Instrument on google fonts

[@Legend_yout]

I don’t think this is easy ..!! Change the title
