just down and dirty fast sample ).īUT I chose exactly where I want to see it start to fade in, and where I wanted it to be GONE. In my case I just left it at default ( no choosing Bezier, ease out, ease in, etc. So you stick this psd file up there ( the text layer ) and now you can use effects to ( yes, it's true ) use keyframes to move it, fade it in and out, and scale it !!!!! With simple controls inherent in the effect panel !!! So people don't have to THINK about what's going on. The REASON I'm showing this is because everyone tends to go for the 'automatic' fun and fast solution ( pre-programmed by smart programmers ). Stick it above the video you want to put the text ( in this case simple ) but basically you import only those layers you want ( in this case one text layer). Make your Text in photoshop with a transparent background, Hehe, there's such a lack of problems to solve that all of the nice experts are squirming in their seats looking out for someone who needs help !Īs I enjoy a Spring weather Saturday in MN. With the fade out, the text becomes gradually invisible. I need the fade in to gradually reveal the text, but, the moment the clip starts to play, the text becomes visible immediately, and in a jarring way. Surely the text must be able to fade in from 0 to 100, also in a slow, gentle, gradual way.īut, the text becomes immediately visible, despite lengthening the duration of a cross dissolve, or increasing the distance between keyframes when done manually. Logically, if the text can fade out from 100 to 0 opacity in a gentle, gradual manner, So, why is the fade out nice and gentle, and yet, the fade in of the text is immediately visible and jarring? Thus, the settings are exactly the same from the beginning of the clip to the middle,Īs they are from the middle of the clip, to the end. The end of the clip, the opacity back to 0.

In the middle of the clip, the opacity to 100.

So, when I do it manually with keyframes at the start the clip, I set the opacity to 0. The bizarre part, is that when the clip *fades out, it is exactly how I am trying to create the fade in slow and gentle. And I want the text to become *gradually visible. The issue is that regardless of how long the duration of the cross dissolve effect, or the distance I put between keyframes when I do it manually –– the text immediately becomes visible from the start. I have tried ––both manually with key-framing the opacity of the clip, and I've tried a cross dissolve. I'm teaching myself Premiere, and I'm trying to create a *slow, *gentle, *gradual fade in of text.
