hello guys soft Tony here welcome to
another After Effects tutorial and in
this video Lesson we're going to create
this easy to follow stroke animation
text so without wasting any more time
let's jump straight into after effects
and get started
[Music]
all right we're hearing After Effects
and first like always let's create a new
composition hit Control Plus n or this
little icon here this is going to be
final comp of course you can type your
own text 9020 by 1080 60 frames per
seconds and duration 4 seconds long hit
OK and now let's create our background
goal right click find here new solid
layer I will rename this one too
background of course you can type your
own text 9020 by 1080 hit OK and now
it's time to add our first effect here
on background layer go here in the
faction preset and if you can't find
them just go window and you will find
them here okay now type here ramp effect
drag and drop onto our background layer
and now let's readjust our start of the
ramp upper left corner end of the ramp
lower right corner and change colors
according your needs for this particular
tutorial I will do maybe this type of
pink or purple color like this hit OK
and for the second color maybe dark dark
blue of course you will play around in
every moment later you can change the
colors hit OK I will close this effects
control for now and now let's create
another solid layer go right click find
here solid rename this to grid also 90
20 by 1080 hit OK and then go here in
the facts and preset and find grid
effect drag and drop onto our grid layer
like so change the size from from corner
point to with slider and type here for
the width 10 and also for the Border 10.
also select this option invert grid and
now as you can see in our final scene we
have these tiny dots on our background
also what we can do is to change our
blending mode if you can't find blending
mode just hit here toggle switches and
modes to find them and let's change this
to Overlay and now what you can do is to
duplicate this grid solid layer once
again
to see even better our tiny Dots here in
our final scene okay now let's create
text layer here on our final scene let's
hit Control Plus t or go here on this
little icon I will just type
stroke
outlines of course you will type your
own text I'm using this Baba's my phone
200 font size okay align it to the
center go here file align if you can
find the line just go window and you
will find it here now let's swap fill
and stroke for our stroke outlines
double click here go here on this
character option and just hit this
little icon to swap fill and stroke now
you can play around with the stroke
width like so and for this particular
tutorial I will do maybe four now let's
convert stroke out outlines in shapes go
right click find here create and select
this option create shapes from text now
you can delete these stroke outlines
lower option like so open up this Little
Triangle pull here on ADD find here trim
pads go at maybe 2 seconds open up these
trim pads option set a power first
keyframe for and go at zero frames and
type here zero okay now grab both of our
keyframes hit F9 on your keyboard go to
graph editor and let's draw a curve like
this
and if you can't find curve like this
just go right click and find here edit
speed graph now in our final scene when
we hit 0 we have this cool animation of
our stroke text okay now what we can do
is to duplicate this once hit control
plus d move upper text maybe two frames
ahead
like this
okay duplicate this once again move this
maybe four frames ahead once again six
frames ahead now select our first three
stroke texts go here in the facts and
press it find here
fill effect double click and now as you
can see we have this Red Stroke outline
text that we're going to also change to
another colors for the first let's leave
it to red color for the second one let's
change to maybe dark blue color like
this hit OK and for the third one let's
change to maybe yellow color hit OK and
now when we hit zero we have this really
cool and awesome animation of our stroke
text also what we can do for our upper
text go here in the facts and preset
find glow drag and drop onto our first
text and for the glow threshold type
here 50 radius also 50 and glow
intensity 0.5 and now we also have this
glowy final text in our final scene
okay for the final step we can
pre-compose text select them all then go
right click select here pre-compose I
will rename this one to text o1 hit OK
and now let's duplicate this one once
again hit Ctrl D for the lower text or
one find here radial
fast blur drag and drop onto our text o1
and here basically you can play around
with the options for this Center do
something like this for the amount let's
go to around maybe 85 and also type here
fill
effect drag and drop above our radial
fast blur effect and here basically you
can play around with the option to
change colors of these Shadows according
your needs I will do black color hit OK
you can also find here overlay blending
mode play around or leave it to normal
duplicate once again if you need and now
when we hit zero in our finals we have
also this cool shadows of our stroke
outlines text you can also if you want
animate this Center option to get your
own results okay now when we hit 0 we
have this really cool and nice stroke
outlines text
