Works fine here. Have you tried reloading the page please. I have to see the Fringe TV Intro to see what are you talking about, if you have a link post it please.

Tried playing the preview but it just spins and doesn’t load. Would like to see a ‘Fringe’ TV show text effect tutorial that doesn’t require 3rd party plug ins either in FCP, Motion or AE.
Hope all is well,
Steve

Not a problem. Please understand that with any motion graphic software you will need to have additional plugins to extend the functionality of the program. Even if you have to get one of those plugins it is a good investment as it will pay itself of very quickly.
I know I try to help you people a lot by trying most of the time to create things with the default set of filters, unfortunately I was not able to do this one. I always think about Motion users when approaching any of my tutorials.

Hi Zac- thank you for taking the time to reply. No problem – just a little disappointing getting to the end and realizing I needed a filter not available in motion. Great tutorial anyway and look forward to more.

Hi Back, I am sorry you did not realize that you will need third party filter to achieve this result. Shutter is not available from within Apple Motion, rather you will need as you know third party plugin. I did write in my post that I have used shutter Filter. I have not changed the text to incorporate the words (third party plugin).

Great tutorial – but it should state before purchase that the final effect requires the purchase of a third party plug in. There is no mention of this prior to purchase.

I just looked samples on the You tube. Well this is easily done. Just use a group and inside a group have sets of words which will be animated in a way that you want. Say you have 30 words per group. then get another group and add another 30 words and animate that also. This should not be a problem creating in Motion. Let me know how you get on please.

Wow! Several different projects, then combine them. Your suggestion is interesting. But, there is a tiny flaw. My objective is to sync the animated type to the words in the song. So I’ve imported the song into Motion. If I do several projects, somewhere along the line something is not going to sync. Please have a look on YouTube at Kinetic Typography videos to get an idea of what I’m trying to achieve. It’s nice to actually be able to bounce this off of someone. You’ve really given me something to think about. Thanks again.
