This was one of the first After Effects tutorials I watched back in early 2012 when I was in college, I'm 29 now and I work as a motion graphic animator in a local broadcast company. It's amazing to look back and see everything you've learned. Thank you so much for this.
After watching this tutorial. I fried up AE 5.5 for the very FIRST TIME and I got the hang of it after about an hour. Ran into trouble with keyframes. (Stop keyframes are important you'll learn). But 4 hours later and I've mastered this technique. Best tutorial I've ever seen. Can't thank you enough!! :D
Love this. Just getting into kinetic typography and ae and have watched a lot of tutorials. Yours is really helpful. I loved animating the null instead of having everything flying all over the place independently. Thanks a lot.
The work isn't always exciting. That's why it's key to keep your mind focused on the result. You'll find the enjoyment in putting the pieces together like a puzzle.
I wouldn't usually stay on a video for 22:12 minutes but your voice is so soothing and when I've done mine which may take a couple of days as I'm doing a full song I'll video response it. Thanks for the tutorial mate!
Ohh my bah-jesus! I love (strong word) your sense of humor. It makes these tutorials more easy to live through. I wish you were my own personal editing instructor. Can you hire a effects instructor like you'd hire a private tennis coach...just with longer shorts? What would it cost?
This is a great tutorial, i wish i could see this 3 years ago, when i got my first kinetic typography project and i spent like 4 days trying to find a way to do it quickly. As i sad, its a great example for those whp want to start with animation&typography. Btw theres a nice shortcut to time your text layers without rendering(playback). Hold ctrl(command if using a mac) and drag the cursor across the timeline. You can hear the audio frame by frame if you want ;)
Thank you for this! Informative and fun. (And funny) Speaking from 2016, I guess that means that kinetic typography is now sooo five years ago? Anyway, proceeding to add my secret sauce. Great tutorial!
Thank you so much. I have a Kinetic type midterm and this definitely helped. Though my project has like 200 text layers, multiple null objects, and a background, this vid taught the fundamentals and helped tremendously. Thanks you awesome person you.
wtf?! the best tutorial i have ever seen, since my dad taught me how to ride a bike twenty years ago. you now have +1 suscribe. saludos desde Argentina!
+TheFluffyBirdy No, its 20 minutes to learn how to use this technique in your own future projects. I dont think it would benefit your genre of videos and it doesnt look like you have After Effects experience anyway.
In the layer window, there should be a small "right pointing" arrow. Click on it to show a droptab with another arrow, click the new arrow and you should be able to see it. To preview the whole thing including audio, you could try pressing "0" on the keyboard, or Ctrl+0, different inputs for different systems.
thanks! we were doing this in my video production class and my teacher didnt even know the trick to adding the null object to animate it. cant wait to show my finished project off to him :)
Dude seriously your an amazing tutorial maker lol, your hilarious and you know what your doing and make it simple so beginners can do it to :P keep making videos bro!
Very good tutorial, especially since you gave the disclaimer of not explaining everything. I know nothing of aftereffects, but flash knowledge seems to help against feeling overwhelmed at what's going on. Also keep up the humour, you're very brave to let that show in the hostile world of the internet. *subscribes*
I thoroughly enjoyed that. I loved the way you presented this and had me laughing intermittently between great information. Thank you. Learning for free like a broke chump on the internet should always be this fun.
Dude. Love this tutorial, helped me out on a project for a client so thanks for that. And you definitely got some mad design skills, don't sell yourself short of that, my friend. P.S. I totally lost my shit when you said "KA-BLAM-OH!" Had me rolling.
For people having trouble with their text "jumping around": right click key frame (or group of keyframes), select 'keyframe interpolation', set spatial resolution to 'linear.'
Nice work Jesse, thank you for the tutorial the results looks really slick. I've only ever tied this technique once - it's not as good as yours but it's here - will try to post it...
Poetry comes from the author's reinterpretation of information. Having text act out exactly what text is spelling is not very imaginative.It takes a much deeper read into the subtext of the writing to uncover new and fresh interpretations. This makes for a much more dynamic and interesting way to handle the meaning and representation of the text.

How's everything going now?
what's your major? did you get job that suit on what your title is?
I've looked at an embarrassing number of kinetic typography tutorials, and this one has by far been the most helpful. Thank you.
Love your enthusiasm, its addictive!
lol tommy bae I love you

You may not be a designer, but you got straight to the point with the video and I found it quite helpful. Nice one!

+TheFluffyBirdy No, its 20 minutes to learn how to use this technique in your own future projects. I dont think it would benefit your genre of videos and it doesnt look like you have After Effects experience anyway.
Chino Pisces Stfu, if it takes that long, I wont have time for it anyways, i have school work....

Best tutorial I've ever seen.
Mate you're a top bloke, got me good marks in Motion Graphics! haha
Thanks mate for the time and effort you took to make this. It really helped. Cheers.
Wow. That bracket short cut probably would have saved me at least three hours on each lyric video i made TT_TT thank you sir! Awesome tutorial too!
Despite the video being a mac-oriented video while I have a PC, your tutorial helped me the most somehow. Thanks mate :)
thanks! we were doing this in my video production class and my teacher didnt even know the trick to adding the null object to animate it. cant wait to show my finished project off to him :)
Dude seriously your an amazing tutorial maker lol, your hilarious and you know what your doing and make it simple so beginners can do it to :P keep making videos bro!

Excellent tutorial. Not just the basics. A real pro. Thank you!!! And yes, great sense of humor. Had to think of Steve Carell alot ;)
Love your humor!! (I hate dry tutorials) Thank you for the help!
This helped me finally get how to start doing kinetic typography. Thank you!
tnx a lot! i've learned the basic, ready to go to more advanced tutorials
"t is not for beginners"
YOU UNDERESTIMATE MY POWER.
In the Section with the Play Button, Forward, Rewind; There's one with 3 vertical bars and a triangle. Or hit 0 on the numpad. Hope this helps.
This is so helpful, thank you! Don't know why I'm here nearly 6 years later, haha
I thoroughly enjoyed that. I loved the way you presented this and had me laughing intermittently between great information. Thank you. Learning for free like a broke chump on the internet should always be this fun.

From Argentina, thanks for the tutorial!
Dude. Love this tutorial, helped me out on a project for a client so thanks for that. And you definitely got some mad design skills, don't sell yourself short of that, my friend.
P.S. I totally lost my shit when you said "KA-BLAM-OH!" Had me rolling.
Thank you so much it was very useful, I'll put it in practice in my next videos.
thanks for showing your work flow. it was very helpful
it's easier for me to know how to do it by watching this video. This is definitely not a boring tutorial but a very fun video tutorial ! :D Liked!
For people having trouble with their text "jumping around": right click key frame (or group of keyframes), select 'keyframe interpolation', set spatial resolution to 'linear.'
You want me to memorize sauce and secret sauce? Jeeze!
I'm just learning this stuff. Very helpful. Thanks
Awesome tut, thanks for teaching this stuff! 12 people, sadly, are too lazy to get a trial of After Effects.
Nice work Jesse, thank you for the tutorial the results looks really slick. I've only ever tied this technique once - it's not as good as yours but it's here - will try to post it...
Thank you! this tutorial helped me way more than that of my theacher xD It helped me a lot :)
i learnt typography from this video, thanks man!
Patience is the key here. . . I love it!! :D
Should totally do a sequel and cover transitions from the 1st set to the next set of texts.
I already loved the intro

Loving your humor!
The intro... Is just awesome man :)
