Maybe through an expression?

 

I'm sure many have asked about this, but when you use a text animator like (ex.) Fade Up Words/Slide Up By Word, could there be a way to pickwhip the keyframing to a waveform of the audio track (or something), so you could quickly animate a block of text timed to the VO? They do it on TikTok, right?

You would need to change how the animator itself works, since it doesn't realyl have a way to just arbitrarily reset a value. Until then refer to this:

Could easily be modified to work on opacity in conjunction with animting the source text. There's also a ton of other "subtitle" examples out there, so it's realyl not that we'd need a new function for this. People already do it all the time.
