Create shapes that match the size of text using Adobe After Effects expressions.
In this class, I’ll show you how to animate the revealing of a dynamic text string. This allows the text to change, including the font or size, and have the animation automatically update. It’ll let you create responsive essential graphics templates, and is a springboard to more complex interactions.

 

You’ll learn how to use expressions to match the size of mask to a text element. I’ll also show you a handy technique to add an animated easing to an expression using a placeholder object.

I’ll go through these steps in the process:

    • Classic setup with text reveal
    • Calculating the text size and mask scale
    • Creating a placeholder animation
    • Linking it all together
