after effects lesson 3

Third and final lesson learning about text

There are two ways of adding text

Layer>new>text
or
Type tool>click in composition window and type

the anchor point can be changed by transform. this moves the layer while the anchor point stays where it is on the screen. The pan behind tool can also be used which moves the point itself

to change text as you go along you find the text in the timeline and use source text

animate>range selector allows you to change individual text properties

Mask= whole screen solid layer
Paths=Draw an open ended pen drawing in a text layer.
