Adobe Premiere- Crawling Text

  • April 4, 2019

Could anyone kindly guide me on how to go about doing this?

I have created a crawling text in Adobe Premiere Pro. When crawling from right to left I do not want the text to keep moving till the end of the screen instead it should come only, say about three quarter, and the text should disappear as though it is getting hidden behind something while the rest of the entire text should keep following and eventually disappear or I should say hide at that point.

I shall be very thankful to anyone who could guide me on how to get this up.

Thanks a lot

Joseph

    Which layer are you trying to animate:

    • Text 1 on Track V2
    • Title 02 on Track V3

    ?

    Text 1 is the static strip and Title 2 in the text. I want to animate the text which is on layer 3

    From what I can see in the screenshot it looks like you're using a Title (discontinued feature).

    Why don't use Essential Graphics or Text tool?

    Anyway

    With Title, you'll be using Motion section in Effect Controls panel as I advised earlier:

    So, you'll be selecting your title on the timeline,

    adding keyframe in Effect Controls panel (stopwatch), then moving the playhead and moving the text (you can use property values next to Position - 1st one is horizontal position (like I did here)

    1. Select text
    2. Open Effect Controls panel
    3. Inside Effect Controls panel position the playhead at start and click on stopwatch icon next to Position (under Motion):

    this will add a keyframe

    Then move the playhead and move the text on the screen in Program Monitor. This will add a new keyframe

    Sorry, my mistake. Position under Transform for text not under Motion:

    As you're animating text using Effect Controls panel, you can animate movement up to 3rd of the screen as you say, and then animate text disappear animating Opacity property.
