Question

How to achieve this clean Minecraft text transition? (Premiere & After Effects)

Hey guys!

I saw a really cool text transition in a Minecraft video (0:20)

And I'm trying to recreate it. The creator mentioned they only used Premiere Pro and After Effects for their editing workflow.

The effect is a fast camera fly zoom to the sky where a 3D text (like "INTRODUCING") appears in the middle of the screen, perfectly locked in place with zero jitter.

I tried using the 3D Camera Tracker in After Effects, and also tried 2D tracking (Position + Scale), but because of the repeating Minecraft textures and the fast camera rush, the text constantly jitters, shakes, or the tracker points just slide off the blocks.

How is this transition actually made? What is the proper, clean workflow in Premiere or AE to get that rock-solid, smooth look without any shaking?

Thanks in advance!

Hi there,


Thanks for reaching out. Check out the text animation preset. There are a lot of them: https://adobe.ly/4f8K3oc

Or you can do this manually as well: https://adobe.ly/4poRL0J

Let me know if there are any other questions.


Thanks,

Hi Nishu,

Thanks for the links, but you completely misunderstood my issue.

The problem is not with the text animation or presets.

The actual issue is the tracking. I am trying to track a text layer into a fast-moving Minecraft cinematic using either the 3D Camera Tracker or 2D Motion Tracker. Because of the repeating textures of Minecraft blocks and the fast camera zoom, the track constantly slips, and the text jitters/shakes heavily.

I need help with stabilizing the track or a proper workflow for tracking fast Minecraft footage, not animating the text.

Thanks,
