Hi, everyone! I hope you are all doing alright, and keeping safe :))
I was wondering, does anyone know how to make a text/worded overlay move in a “fancy way” – by this, I mean as in the sentenced word overlays move at a specfic speed, pause for a bit for another word/text overlay to come through, and then they both go offscreen at a fast pace. This animation thing is usually used when the readers are told the story contains mature themes, or usually used to show dates/time. I have attempted to do the code, and it’s near to what I envisioned the animation of my overlays to look like but it seem like it doesn’t move as smoothly as it should be.
I know my explaination sounds a bit odd, so i have attached a video of how I imagine the overlays to move :))
overlay names:
- THIS CONTAINS FONT
- DISCRETION ADVISED FONT
- MATURE THEMES FONT
my attempted code (animation):
&overlay THIS CONTAINS FONT shifts to 25 197 in zone 1 in 2.5 using easein and overlay THIS CONTAINS FONT to layer 3 and overlay DISCRETION ADVISED FONT shifts to 32 118 in zone 1 in 2.5 using easein and overlay DISCRETION ADVISED FONT to layer 3 then pause for 1
@overlay MATURE THEMES FONT shifts to 62 166 in zone 1 in 3.5 using easein and pause for .50
&overlay THIS CONTAINS FONT shifts to -280 197 in zone 1 in 0.75 using easein and overlay THIS CONTAINS FONT to layer 3 and overlay DISCRETION ADVISED FONT shifts to -275 118 in zone 1 in 0.75 using easein and overlay DISCRETION ADVISED FONT to layer 3
@overlay MATURE THEMES FONT shifts to -208 166 in zone 1 in .80 using easein
video of the code above:
Please ignore the quality of the video, ew. But the problem I have here, is that the mature themes overlay doesn’t come in smoothly as if it’s not in time or something (I’ve made the part where the overlay comes in screen in bold and italic) – I’m not sure how I can explain it, other than the video, but that overlay coming on screen looks dodgy.
I hope someone can help me, thank you in advance.
