why did you use the stroke effect instead of the trim path? Doesn't it easier and sort of keep the same effect?

Hey Josh, When I create the mask of the text the anchor point for each individual letter is in a different place than where it is on your example. when I try to change the anchor point for the letter it tries to adjust the a.p. for the layer instead. any insight? Thanks for all of your videos and the time you put in. It's appreciated!

This effect is great, and a great tutorial. However, I am trying it with a lot more text. Is there a way of automatically applying the lens flare to each letter, or does each letter have to be done individually?

Josh, I'm curious how you can adjust the starting point of the trace. I understand how to adjust the trim path of a layer, but my Auto-Trace starts in the same spot every time. (Or will I have to manually edit the keyframes for each object?)

Could you do one where yu edit a logo from eps or vector format? Every time I paste all the paths from my outlined layers into a mask layer the outline then only goes rectangle around the border of the group of masks on the individual masks. For the life of me I cant work around it.

HI, JN - is there anyway we can get the inner part of letters (as in the R and O in your example) to fill in? The effect kind of works with stylised text such as this, however when I use a different font with lower case text it looks a bit weird. Some really useful things here especially the flare effect and how to attach to the text motion path. As you American chappies would say that was awesome Enjoyed the Skillshare video on GLOW that was awesome too. Many thanks as always for taking the time out to do these videos I can see I am not the only appreciative subscriber. KP Doncaster, UK somewhere...

@desmanage 3 жыл бұрын

Cracked it, JN - hadn't realised that inner strokes are kept in the Stroke effect as a repeat of the letter - so an 'a' is shown twice in the drop down, the 2nd 'a' being the inner stroke. Great stuff - having fantastic fun with this one! KP

@steveloudon7491 3 жыл бұрын

Great tutorial but there is something I don't understand at all. That is duplicating effects. For example you duplicated the drop shadow and on the second copy you changed the softness to 80. Why couldn't you have just used that setting on the first copy and not have to dup. it? Similarly, with the glow effect you dup. this three times and ended up just resetting everything. I must be missing something. Please help. I've had this question for several months now but can't find an answer. Thanks. Keep up the good work.

@happycrayon7621 3 жыл бұрын

Actually the thing is, when you duplicate the drop shadow, the softness increases same goes for glow. Imagine it like this, if you pour sugar into a cup about 3 spoons, if you add one more, the sweetness will increase. But using excess sugar can cause taste odd.
