After Effects :: How To Add Text To A Lower Third Mov
Jun 24, 2013
I have downloaded a few lower thirds from a website and they download as .mov files.
I am trying to add text to them and lay them over some product spotlight videos for my work.
I was thinking that they were going to be in template form but they are not.
What is the best way to add text to these .mov lower third files?
I just have to create my own animation for the text to follow along the lower third?

I created a selection, filled it and put text on top of it in a 72 ppi file and copied the group to an image with much higher resolution. I transformed the shape and text to make it bigger. Does doing this affect quality?

I like the AutoCAPS setting in Mtext, however I occasionally use lower-case text when I am typing, such '2"x4" STUDS' . . . now, I do have a problem with AutoCAPS though:
Example - I copy '2"x4" STUDS" and paste it into another Mtext and the lower-case 'x' is automatically pasted as an uppercase character.
Are there any settings for AutoCAPS, or maybe for the copy/paste command that I can change to allow lower-case characters to be pasted into text when the AutoCAPS is on? It is a bit of a hassle to turn off AutoCAPS and turn it back on.

Just switched to 2012 from 2010. When I try to edit the description format field in the properties window of a selected cogo point, I can't type in caps, it's all lower case. If I right click and edit the point, I can use capital letters, however. (running C3D 2012 sp4, Win7 64bit, 8GB)

I've made a fabulous Smoke Text effect that I then insert the .mov file into Final Cut Pro. The smoke effect I downloaded from the tutorial has a black background and therefore when rendered out, it's a basic white text against a black background. Once in FCP, I have to turn the file's opacity down in order for it to layer over a video file and not black out what I layer over it.
How can I make the file transparent? A simple toggle of the transparency grid isn't going to do it. I need to make or find a video of smoke that is transparent?

I’m trying to add some text effects over my video, but I’m really stuck right now getting After Effects and Adobe Premier to work together.
From the tutorials I’ve watched online, I’ve been trying to create a dynamic link between the two programs so I could easily create texts and other effects in AE that immediately show up on my timeline in Premier. I've been able to create texts, but whatever I create in AE is not showing up on the Premier timeline. Am I missing a step? Also, when I load up my sequence into AE, all of the color correcting that I’ve done with Looks inside Premier goes away, and the clips appear as they did right out of the camera.

I think I may have made a big error. While adding text and applying (experimenting) various "Effects" with the text, I used the garbage can icon to remove the "Effect", thinking it is going to remove the 'Effect" from the text, until I realized I had to remove the "Effect" with the edit button, not the garbage can. Have I now permanently removed the various "Effects" permanently or just off the screen? How do I regain them back onto the menu column? How many "Effects" should be visible in order to have the complete set? This was my first experiment with the lettering effects and hope I haven't lost them forever.

I use After Effects CC and am having trouble with the 3D camera tracker. Here is a link to the video where you can see my problem.URL....
The video works fine, until at the end, when the camera moves through the text. When it moves through the text, it starts to "shake" the text. When the camera moves back away from the text, it stops shaking again.

Photoshop CS. I am using it to print out my wedding invitations and am having a problem.
I printed out a majority of them a few months back and used the font 'poor richard' with the effect 'glowing edges' and it worked perfectly for the look I was going for. Now, when I try the same, the color of the text changes to black as soon as I apply the effect.

I used XPGD7 to do some simple text w/ shadow and added it to my website (as an h1 tagged page heading). I do not pretend to be a graphic designer and would like a designers eye to tell me how to spice it up. Perhaps emboss or engrave? How can this be accomplished?
May I add the url of where it's posted so you can see it on the website (site not built w/ Xara).

A while ago I found a really easy way to make text effects - like fire text etc. It was from a drop down menu and was something like "create logo".

I am having trouble creating 3D text when it comes to adding the light layer effect. I write the text, create a camera, make sure the 3d button is checked, and extrude the text. Then I move the text to see the new 3d angles of the text. As I create a light layer, nothing shows up on the text. I have made sure that I am in Ray-Traced 3D mode, but nothing happens.

How can you mask Text that is a 3D layer, using Ray Traced 3D?
The mask function does not work when it is made into a 3D layer, in to add an Extrusion to it.
It works fine when it is not a 3D layer, or just in Classic 3D. What other ways might there be to acheive this?

I am creating a typographic advertisement and I created the text layers in AI. I imported these files as raster layers and they appear clear within the pre-compositions of AE. The problem that I run into is when I exit the pre-comp and view the final composition the nested layers become pixelated. The layers are vector layers and I have tried everything that I can to correct the problem.

Had a colour effect that was being used and it was only achieved by using a 32bit colour space. However the text came out jagged in the render. I changed the text to 16bit and all was fine. So question is why would the text be jagged in 32bit is there a specific reason for that?

I have some text spiraling inward along a path (about 20 words). How can I make the individual words (or characters) fade as they near the center of the spiral (while leaving new words at the start of the path at their full opacity until they too reach the center)? I've played with various parameters (including start, end, and offset - and opacity) and have come close, but can't quite get it - and after completing spiral, text sometimes becomes opaque again and heads off at tangent to last segment of spiral.

I have a 3D Text using VideoCopilot's Element 3D effect on a 2D Solid Layer. With a camera, I can orbit it around in 3D space with other 3D layers. But when I pre-compose all of it and orbit the camera, the 3D Text doesn't move, only the other 3D layers. How can I move everything together? I've tried all of the combinations of Collapse Transformations/3D switches...
The project file (CS6): https:[url].....

I wanted to add effects to text. The "help" feature said that the easiest way is to use the text effects in the Action palette.
The instructions were very sketchy. I tried, and didn't see any effect, so I closed that particular file and went on to something else.
Well, I guess I did SOMETHING, because now those effects seem to be permanently stuck ON. I've tried everything that I can think of. I even deleted all effects from the Actions palette (apparently you can restore the defaults later.) No effect!
The effects that are haunting me are "rippling water" and a shadow. Also, if I click anywhere in a .gif with the text tool, instead of creating a new text layer, it "highlights" the entire image.
What can I do?
