what's up ladies and gentlemen I'm Ignace Aleya from Toleratedcinematics.com
and today it's Tip Trick Tuesday!
and you've got that right so no longer motion graphic Monday's we didn't upload
yesterday and there is reason behind that I actually decided to stop motion
graphic Mondays that doesn't necessarily mean that I'm going to stop making
motion graphic tutorials but I kind of want to get rid of the necessity to
upload motion graphics on a Monday because I actually want to see the
bigger picture and focus a little bit more on creativity and filmmaking
instead of only motion graphics and motion graphics on a weekly basis
doesn't really allow me to experiment with filmmaking itself and that's
actually where I want to go to so I know a lot of people enjoy my motion graphic
tutorials but I also have to think a little bit about myself and honestly I
feel a little bit more challenged if I can be making filmmaking tutorials and
experiment on-the-go hope you understand it absolutely doesn't mean that I'm
gonna stop making motion graphic tutorials such as today we're going to
see how to make a wiggly kind of text jumpy effect I wish I actually saw when
I was shopping this weekend at pools and beer here in Belgium Kent I was walking
and they had like a big screen and and they had this kind of vintage style
promo video on their screen which really inspired me and yeah that actually shows
how I get inspired to make my videos I just look around so everyday everywhere
you look is inspiration so I saw that effect I really got intrigued by it and
I wanted to recreate it and show you guys how to make it yourself because
it's really fun and kind of a happy animation which works really great
nowadays so without further ado let's
all right so here we are in Adobe After Effects and the first thing that I want
to do is create a new composition of course so I will go for a foolish
decomposition rename it to the main comp and there we go make it around ten
seconds long and click OK so what we want to do is actually find that kind of
Wiggly text that you just saw it's a really kind of fun kind of way to bring
some life to your text so we're going to the text tool and just click right over
here and subscribe to the channel what you should do if you enjoy watching this
video and you want to stay up to date from everything that I upload also be
sure to check the pelicans so you get notified when I upload new videos ok so
here we have our text I'm going to make it a little bit smaller by going to the
character design get here so that's character right here and we're going to
make it a little bit smaller and there we go perfect I'm using the Bella
bouffant which is a great font for this type of videos it really works very well
because you have that kind of get drawn effect in my opinion so we'll go to our
selection to go to the align tab right here and just Center our text so it's
nicely centered right here now we're going to right click here new and create
a new solid layer this is going to be our background layer we want to kind of
add some cool background a course in here so maybe we want to go for this
kind of yellow click OK and bring it down and there we go so now we have some
text a background and some text we can go to the text color we can change the
text color over here or we can go to effect and go to simply generate and
fill this is an easier way in my opinion to colorize the text if you want to
change that later on so um let's see what we want to use here let's say we
want to use this here and same for the background I'm going to apply a generate
and self instead of going to the solid settings it's easier to change it this
way
so let's say that we're satisfied with these two course and very simply what we
can do is click on our subscribe to the channel text and go to the animation tab
right here in the menu bar go to animate the text and we're going to animate our
position so click on that and I will open up the range selector position
right here so we want to position it individually and currently that's not
doing it what we can do is go to the add property selector I'm sorry and add the
wiggle effect if we go to the wiggle effect right here and move the position
right here you can see that this is actually doing it individually so what
we'll do is go for like five and five and now we are going to have something
like this so now what you can do is open up the wiggle settings play around with
everything right here maybe you want to go for a faster pace or a slower pace
but currently it's a little bit too smooth as you can see so this is some
kind of flag text which could also work and if you're going to increase the
speed here you're also going to get something pretty cool you can also lower
your value to something like one and one and there you go so now you have this
kind of effect maybe go a little bit slower or something like five and now
you already have this kind of text jiggle and jitter effect but that's not
entirely what we're looking for we wanted a little bit more with a jitter
before we continue this video I would like to present you our website designed
for filmmakers and video editors to improve their workflow we offer
templates presets high-quality pre-made packs soundscapes
essential graphics and much more if you don't have time to create something of
your own or you just want to speed up your workflow definitely check out our
website with a link in the description below
some kind of time jitter that we add on top of the effect so it looks like
stop-motion animation so I actually recently made a tutorial on how to do
something like that but for another kind of effect but in this video it kind of
works similar to how I did it in that video so what I want to do is once I'm
satisfied with my wiggle here and actually lower this value to something
like 2 I can click on my text go to layer pre compose it and I'm going
to move all the attributes and just rename this to title a1 for example and
click OK so now we have something like this still the same all we did is just
pre compose our text you want to right click on this layer go to time and able
time remapping and now we will have add this hold alt and click on the stopwatch
right here for the time remap feature and that's going to bring up the
expression tab right here so what we want to do here is write post rice and
then cap ste time open parentheses something like 4 close parenthesis dot
comma and then enter value comma so if we're going to do that and we're going
to preview this we're going to see that we now have this kind of stop motion
effect which looks pretty cool we can also increase this number from 4 to 8
which is going to do the animations a little bit faster posterized time
actually works like per second so if you want to post rise the time once a second
every second is gonna jump a frame if we're going to say 8 then 8 times a
second it's gonna jump a frame and now we have a faster kind of motion graphics
time ya title effect in the reality stop-motion actually uses 12 frames
because that is as close as you can get to yeah kind of I get it as smooth as
possible and not spend too much time like 24 FPS per second so that means you
have to take 12 photos for each second of video and this is basically how they
do it in the studio so let's go for 12 and see what that brings us so now we
have a kind of a stop-motion effect I think it will look a little bit better
if you bring this down to 8 so we can do that as well
and we can also go and back into the composition if you want to change
anything values may but maybe open it up text
wiggle and kind of make it a little bit less because currently it's set at five
maybe you want to set that tree so it's not that obvious okay perfect so now I
have an amazing-looking kind of a wiggle text effect now all you can do is also
click on here and go to effect and go to distort and go for a turbulence displace
this is actually going to help to make it a little bit more unique so like
every single letter has been written again so what I want to do is lower the
size to something like 10 or like 5 and then decrease the value to something
like to maybe let's go for 7 so 2 & 7 right here and if we're going to play
the evolution here you're going to see that we actually change your text a
little bit
actually I'm going for five here and 20 here
I like yes 20 and now if we're going to play with the evolution you're going to
see a little bit more going on in our text we can actually increase this do
something like then that will be a little bit better we're like 20 and just
see what works for you it really depends
and now all you can do is just alt click and click on stopwatch for the evolution
and right here we're also going to use the poster eyes time 8 comma and below
that we're going to write time times 150 which is going to give an infinite
animation on the evolution and now we have something like that going on so if
we're going to increase that number just so you can see it a little bit better I
maybe just change the post rise time to something like 4 and there you go so now
we have this kind of a displacement update as well so we want to change the
amount to something like 28 sizes on like 20 and now we have a different kind
of text right here which looks pretty cool maybe a little bit lower even in
there we go so now we have our kind of text that is written on the screen
really cool and actually I already made this kind of tutorial in a previous
tutorial a little bit less detailed than this one but it also covers how to
animate your text and so if you want to see that tutorial I will put a card
right here on the video if you want to go and check it out be my guest
and I hope you enjoyed this tutorial if you did give this video online also be
