ok i need some help, or a Tut on how to do animations (text animation) on adobe Image Ready

up

can someone just tell me? not a big tut. but a simple answer?

There is no need for that many bumps in that short period of time. The rules state that you should bump when it is on the second page.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A person who knows the answer will most likely when/if they see this thread.

ok sith, sry bout that.

First make a new photoshop document...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ok, to start, make every different letter you want to move/disappear/appear a different layer. So if I wanted to make a text animation that made letters appear 1 by 1, then I would make 1 layer for M, then make a new layer, put the o where I want it, etc. (Sorry if this is confusing)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now, go from Photoshop to Imageready. There should be a little window at the bottom that has tabs, and one of them says "animation". Click that.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ok, so, I want the have the letter "m" appear first. I hide every layer except the layer that has the letter "m". Now, make a new frame (do that in the animation window you clicked in the step above). Then in that one, I would make the layer with the letter "o" appear. Then do that with the l, the i, etc. Then you have to save it, under the file menu. (You probably know this, but animations only work under .gif.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If there was any part of that you didn't understand, tell me.

Can any programs besides photoshop be used?

Well actually youre not doing the animation in photoshop, its in imageready... But thats off topic. Sorry, I dunno any other programs. GraphicsGale can do it, but thats for like pixel stuff, plus you have to be registered. But I'm sure theres some other programs.

uhhh little confusing :cry:

Sorry... what part was confusing? Or was it all of it :shock: ? I'm sure someone here can explain it better, but I dunno how to explain it any other way... But I guess I can try it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm gonna use Mol as an example with one letter popping up after another, like this-

 

 

 

Frame 1- M

 

 

 

Frame 2- Mo

 

 

 

Frame 3- Mol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Open up Photoshop.

 

 

 

2. Use the text tool, type in "m".

 

 

 

3. On a new layer, I type in "o" next to the m.

 

 

 

4. On another layer, I type in "l" next to the o

 

 

 

5. Now I click the little thing at the bottom of the tools palette to go into Imageready.

 

 

 

6. At the bottom, there will be a window with tabs, and one of the tabs say "animation". I click that tab. (If that window is not there, you can find it under "window" at the top).

 

 

 

7. On this frame, I make layer "m" visible (on the layer palette).

 

 

 

8. On the animation window, I click new frame.

 

 

 

9. I make the layer "o" visible

 

 

 

10. I make yet another frame, and make the layer "l" visible.

 

 

 

11. I set the frame delay, which is right under the frame you want, to 2, because I want it to be slower.

 

 

 

12. I save it.
