Using Text for Shape Layers
It’s a busy time: I looked at the blog today and bam…a week went by! Production Premium CS3 is out there and the video team is going crazy dashing about the country (I’m typing this on a plane headed towards Orlando). SOOO..during the delay at the airport, I whipped up something I’ve wanted to start exploring. Read on if you’re interested.
Shape Layers is one of the new features of After Effects CS3 and like most things in After Effects, it can be applied to almost anything. I wanted to expose you to using Shape Layers on text. Attached is a tutorial and project file on getting started. The only not included is the audio track. Sorry, didn’t know about the rights.
As always, let me know what you think.
