In closing, there are a few things to remember from the course.
I created this animation with the dimensions of 1920 pixels by 1080 pixels. This was my preferred resolution. Feel free to change the dimensions of the animation to suit your liking.
The background can be set to an image or a video. This is your preference.
Go ahead and try different font families, colors, point sizes, character spacing and alignments to add to the effect.
Don’t forget to copy and paste the expression into After Effects to make this work.
You can also try different amounts of font rotation for the effect. I set mine to -180 degrees, but feel free to try other amounts.
