Text animation

[Devotee007]

I'm about to do some text animation. I want to recreate the animation in the Alien Covenant trailer. Is it a good idea to use SplitText for this or is it better to animate it letter for letter? What do you think?

 

Example here:

My 2 cents - you could make that work with SplitText (remembering that it's a Club plugin)

 

However, if I was doing that, I would probably create the whole thing with SVG and SplitText doesn't work with SVG text.

 

Others may have differing opinions.

 

Happy tweening.

Yeah, I agree with PointC about using SVG. I typically would break each letter individually then run staggerFrom on each, really mimicking the same effect that SplitText would provide.

 

Cheers!

Thanks for your input! I will try and go with SVG.
