Meanwhile I'm playing it at 1.5x ;-P

Yo this helped so much and I always appreciate the content and when i found the channel and got the energy from you from the previous video, you've been nothing but real and can vouch for the amazing content and how down to earth you are with everything! All the most love, respect, and appreciation

[@JussiTarvainen]

Fantastic Caleb! Love your delivery, style and content! Keep up the amazing work :)

[@justscribeyourthought9855]

after browsing through so many channels. Yours is by far the best. The explaining thod is so great and detailed even complex stuff is

[@zsoltoroszlany7172]

Thank you for the tutorial. After a few second later I started watching I remembered that we can use mask! Awesome, and it worked just fine, try it out with mask if you have no solid background.

[@GenerallyNerdy]

there are a BUNCH of videos showing how to do this, but this is probably the easiest and least CPU taxing method i have seen. THANK YOU!!!

[@caleblancaster]

You're welcome!

[@9salvia]

Thank you :) I just made the cleanest intro in after effects with this you just earned a sub

[@LionessLiv]

Thank you for such an open explanation of the program: keyboard combination and etc.!

[@Yeoman452]

Thanks for this tut man! I'm learning AR atm and every lil trick and shortcut is really fun right now! Keep it up dude.

[@VibrantDesigns]

You're a genius, thankyou! Also guys I found this out accidentally, but to reverse it so the "invisibox" goes over your text you can animate the lines width scale to gradually go down to 0%. Try it out ;) Thankyou again Caleb.

[@LinKaaxMu]

Thank you for posting this tutorial. I wanted to do something very simple and direct to the point. Your tutorial really helped me.

[@LinxtheL]

Hey, thanks for the great tutorial! I thought the speed was perfect and you explained it very well. Keep up the good work!

[@jamesjs7818]

The last one I watched people commented "Jeeez! Get to the point". Dude, it was perfect. If people can't be arsed to pause or rewind it they should be buying plugins. Good video. :)

[@Woodgal91]

I really appreciated this tutorial Caleb! Nice job.....looking forward to viewing more of your tutorials! Keep 'em coming!

[@caleblancaster]

Thank you! I'm glad to hear it helped you out.

[@vladimirmlotschek3265]

Been learning After Effects and this helped SO MUCH for a video I'm working on. *Thank you!*

[@katek8311]

I love how quick and easy this is! Thank you!

[@jotsiMedia]

Fantastic and fast, this is exactly what I want in a tut! Thanks for taking the time to share this.

[@jamesharbourphotography]

sliding text as in just text sliding onto the page with the slight motion blur and all that goodness? you'd just keyframe the text to go from offscreen to onscreen on the position values - enable motion blur and all is good. motion blur should work with text but if not right click the text layer, turn into shape, rinse and repeat. does this help at all? or I could make a tutorial for you if you'd like? whatever works for you dude. :)

[@Catchthesehands]

Had to watch closely and go back over it a few times, but man this is exactly what I needed. Thank you.

[@KristinBassPetersen]

Instant subscriber from this one, looking forward to learning from more of your tutorials! Thank you for a quick and painless magic trick :D

[@rptrainor]

Thanks, Caleb. Your tutorial is how I learned to do the two title sequences in my recent short film. I really appreciate you sharing this incredibly helpful information.

[@caleblancaster]

That's great! I'm glad it helped.

[@FLVXVLF]

Thanks so much for this! I just adapted the shape reveal for a logo i was working on. HUGE help!

[@LexElls]

Awesome tutorial man, thanks

[@jeremiahaaron2104]

Nice!! Helped me so much, you will be huge! There are many people using after effects, but you gave your time to make a helpful tutorial, thx bro :D

[@benbarnett1430]

Straight to the point, no wasting my time. perfect tut

[@naomisheridan346]

Thanks for actually explaining the context of the blue box! I don't think you were going too fast - there's a pause button for a reason ;) Main thing is we can see what you're clicking on. Great tut!

[@seputarlantaikayu]

Really excited to try this feature out! Amazing work !

[@julializthong]

what a great help you are! even with a stuffy voice, so pleasant to listen to! great energy in your voice! sending loveee!

[@HarryBook]

Damn that's slick! Since I've actually been getting to grips with premiere and after effects I should be able to play around with these top tier editing skills! Thanks Caleb!

[@ashaandrew6407]

[@sasiraffe2847]

Thanks so much this really helped with a project I was working on!

[@kylietseng]

thanks for doing these!

[@IX9IX]

Thanks, man! Very simple tutorial but super helpful!

[@InvisibleIncStudios]

Awesome! I've been doing the same technique but key framing the mask position by itself. I never thought to parent to the shape I was using to reveal the text. Thanks for the time saver!

[@caleblancaster]

You got it! Always easy to overlook simple solutions like that, I catch myself doing it pretty often.

[@catrxa]

This really helped me, thank you!❤️

[@nomysonisalsonamedbort]

I see people complaining about the speed of the tut, but Frankly I prefer the swiftness because it makes it a thousand times easier and come back to if I miss a step, mostly because you explain things pretty well. I watch a lot of tut's where it takes half the video to start a lesson and the audio is muffled and the presenter takes too long and lacks enthusiasm, so just gotta say I loved this one!

[@caleblancaster]

Thanks a lot!

[@melissastclair5002]

make sure you select the alpha mat invert to your shape, like mine is layer 6 for the moving layer and layer 5 for for the line, when you drop your layer underneath layer 5, when you hit alpha mat you want to select not layer 6 alpha mat but layer 6 alpha mat inverted, that hides your text.

[@sunainabhagvandas5397]

Surprised this doesn't have more likes. Found it super helpful! Thanks ^_^

[@AnzusEngudam]

All my life i was wondering how to do this. And here it is everything in just 6 mins.

[@tannermckim6214]

[@RicardoEsteves]

I'm trying to do this with a logo (png file instead of text) but if I alter its position, the mask moves with it. How do I fix this?

[@franciscorosalles]

amazing tutorial!

[@alifffirdaus2108]

Gee, did I spend good amount of time trying to replicate this effect only with masks in After Effects.. And of course it had to be something simple. Thank you for sharing Caleb!

[@favelamovies6423]

for the people complaining about the speed. theres a speed option in youtube. or just skip a bit back if you missed it. great tutorial!

[@DRminecraftlogic101]

Hey love his tutorial I was wondering how I could do this: Once the white line swipes down to reveal the text I want to slide it up but when I do I want a new text to appear so you know how I could do that xoxo

[@bearlyhardley]
