Animating Texts with Timeline Panel and Keyframes

Someone asked me for a tutorial on how I made this b99 gifset which involves text animation.

What you need: basic gif making skills, know your way around timeline panel and keyframes in photoshop, and a ton of patience.

TIPS: it’ll generally be easier… if you know or have idea how you would want your text to be animated. Have your basic gif beforehand

This tutorial will be image heavy and very long, therefore I divided to 4 categories:

1. Make wiggly texts using keyframes and warp text

2. Make texts appear using layer mask

3. Make moving texts using keyframes and transform properties

4. Animate an object/shape

But magic is neither good nor evil. It is a tool, like a knife. Is a knife evil? Only if the wielder is evil.

“There are certain rules that one must abide by in order to successfully survive a horror movie. For instance, number one: you can never have sex. BIG NO NO! BIG NO NO! Sex equals death, okay? Number two: you can never drink or do drugs. The sin factor! It’s a sin. It’s an extension of number one. And number three: never, ever, ever under any circumstances say, “I’ll be right back.” Because you won’t be back.“
