1 00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:03,020 Hi guys I hope you're doing very well. 2 00:00:03,030 --> 00:00:08,160 And remember if you have any questions please post them in the Q and A section of the course. 3 00:00:08,350 --> 00:00:13,500 It's very very important that you master text and you feel very confident and very comfortable working 4 00:00:13,500 --> 00:00:18,240 with text and if you have any questions please remember to post them in the queue any section of the 5 00:00:18,240 --> 00:00:19,710 course. 6 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,320 So let's start to always text now. 7 00:00:22,530 --> 00:00:24,610 Of course we need to create a new composition. 8 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,550 You can come to the small button over here. 9 00:00:26,550 --> 00:00:32,940 If you're not in thousands 18 Ortley and you come up you are going to take a standard composition that 10 00:00:32,940 --> 00:00:35,730 will work through in the course of course. 11 00:00:35,730 --> 00:00:39,040 Feel free to change to high resolution if you like too. 12 00:00:39,060 --> 00:00:43,620 But I will work on seven 20:25 which is pretty good for the course. 13 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:43,970 Fine. 14 00:00:43,980 --> 00:00:50,420 So let's change the composition name and write the text size and then I will leave it 25 frames. 15 00:00:50,460 --> 00:00:52,780 It doesn't really matter because we're not going to animate here. 16 00:00:52,980 --> 00:00:54,900 And the time is five seconds. 17 00:00:54,900 --> 00:00:58,930 Now the background color here I will change it to something that is nice for you. 18 00:00:59,140 --> 00:01:00,480 OK you can see it nicely. 19 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,880 Click OK and then click OK to create the compose. 20 00:01:05,110 --> 00:01:11,430 Right when you're working with text the characters palette and the paragraph panel are very important 21 00:01:11,490 --> 00:01:13,840 and sometimes also the align palette. 22 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:19,350 Now for the purpose of this lecture I would click on the character palette and take it outside so it's 23 00:01:19,350 --> 00:01:20,630 visible all the time. 24 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:25,770 We learned that in the previous section I will do the same for the paragraph panel and stick it out 25 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,400 just over here bottom bottom. 26 00:01:28,590 --> 00:01:33,420 I will come over to the correct that Punin and stretch it down so we see everything. 27 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:39,940 OK here you are not just what's happening in the collected panel before you start putting any text. 28 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:47,380 Notice the font is Arial is narrow the text size is so big there is so many settings here. 29 00:01:47,380 --> 00:01:52,260 Well this is not convenient to start writing new text merely in a new project. 30 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,870 What I recall meant is you always reset your corrected Panner. 31 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:01,980 OK please do that because there are some settings here that are very confusing. 32 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:09,020 So when you reset your character panel it falls to Times New Roman and regular and the font size is 33 00:02:09,020 --> 00:02:10,150 very small. 34 00:02:10,260 --> 00:02:12,250 To me that is start changing this. 35 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:17,960 If you click on the arrow next to the font name you will have a list of all the fonts you have in your 36 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:18,680 system. 37 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,820 You can also add some from the type get later on we'll see that. 38 00:02:23,030 --> 00:02:24,310 So I'm going to choose here. 39 00:02:25,640 --> 00:02:27,850 Not just that I have a start on a real meaning. 40 00:02:27,890 --> 00:02:32,520 This is my favorite font and that is the aerial and a sample of it. 41 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:38,540 If it were on this are or just hit between the start and the aerial you get all the phone stars for 42 00:02:38,540 --> 00:02:39,290 this front. 43 00:02:39,470 --> 00:02:41,000 Let's use for example. 44 00:02:41,060 --> 00:02:42,300 I don't know a regular. 45 00:02:42,410 --> 00:02:45,230 You're now the font size is very small. 46 00:02:45,230 --> 00:02:52,070 The best way to change it is just to click inside so you can edit the number and type for example 100 47 00:02:52,090 --> 00:02:53,180 in lowercase. 48 00:02:53,180 --> 00:03:00,600 Put in the paragraph panel here because he said that if you like but I will leave it to center text. 49 00:03:00,650 --> 00:03:06,790 It's easier to work with center X when I will start adding text is going to use the settings and these 50 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:11,190 paragraphs settings to text you come to your text to overhear. 51 00:03:11,450 --> 00:03:15,540 If you long click you'll have a reason to type 2 and vote to get type 2. 52 00:03:15,640 --> 00:03:22,600 For now let's stick to or isn't it that so you can come over to your composition viewer here and click 53 00:03:22,630 --> 00:03:23,710 and start typing. 54 00:03:23,710 --> 00:03:25,000 This is one way to do it. 55 00:03:25,180 --> 00:03:28,370 Not as the mouse pointer it is indexed now. 56 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,460 But the nicest way to add text is just to double click on the presenter type to. 57 00:03:33,530 --> 00:03:34,390 Here you are. 58 00:03:34,510 --> 00:03:40,630 So start allowing you to add the text just in the middle of the composition 100 percent sent and then 59 00:03:40,710 --> 00:03:42,640 you start typing the text. 60 00:03:42,770 --> 00:03:45,910 Type motion graphics. 61 00:03:46,260 --> 00:03:52,860 So I type motion graphics here and not just my mouse pointer response pointer means that you are in 62 00:03:52,860 --> 00:03:55,390 the edit mode for the text there. 63 00:03:55,410 --> 00:03:56,920 Take it outside. 64 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,300 You will notice now it's in the move as it moved. 65 00:04:00,420 --> 00:04:03,770 It means I will be able to move the layer but still in the not. 66 00:04:03,780 --> 00:04:10,500 If you click out and start moving the layer OK and then if you release you still in the edit mode. 67 00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:13,200 Now obviously I made a mistake here like a grappler. 68 00:04:13,260 --> 00:04:13,930 I don't know. 69 00:04:14,010 --> 00:04:15,830 So let's correct this mistake. 70 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:22,320 What you do is just use the arrow keys if you want left and right or simply what I like doing is clicking 71 00:04:22,380 --> 00:04:27,680 and selecting some characters over here OK and typing again the right word. 72 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,660 There would be graphics but I would click outside and position it. 73 00:04:32,790 --> 00:04:39,990 Now you can of course continue editing by positioning the added pointer anywhere you want it you are 74 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:41,380 and the typing. 75 00:04:41,460 --> 00:04:49,400 More if you like or deleting them with the backspace So now when you finish editing and you're happy 76 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,550 from what you wrote you want to exit the edit mode of this. 77 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:59,280 There you have a couple of options if you press control enter which I will do. 78 00:04:59,510 --> 00:05:06,120 You will exit the edits movement of this text there but stay in the text tool so you can click anywhere. 79 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,320 Now if you are and start adding more text 80 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,530 now if you're happy from your text let me do a correction here. 81 00:05:16,530 --> 00:05:21,690 If this is all the text that you want to add you don't want the text tool anymore to exit the editing 82 00:05:21,690 --> 00:05:22,230 mode. 83 00:05:22,380 --> 00:05:24,500 You just go for your selection tool. 84 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,480 You can't press V because of course it's your right v. 85 00:05:27,690 --> 00:05:29,590 So you go for your selection tool. 86 00:05:29,820 --> 00:05:34,090 Now you have exited the added mode and also exited the text. 87 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,300 So you can click now and adjust your layers wherever you want them. 88 00:05:39,370 --> 00:05:43,930 I see now after exiting you wanted to edit your text. 89 00:05:43,990 --> 00:05:45,730 My favorite way is to come to the layer. 90 00:05:45,730 --> 00:05:52,960 You this I have the bounding box appearing and I double click it will highlight and select all the text 91 00:05:53,020 --> 00:05:57,360 within the letter pull then I can highlight whatever I want. 92 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:58,010 OK. 93 00:05:58,180 --> 00:06:01,810 Or even put it in the middle and type more text. 94 00:06:01,810 --> 00:06:06,280 Highlight another text for example and delete it to exit. 95 00:06:06,280 --> 00:06:07,840 Now I have the choice. 96 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,950 I can press control enter or I will go for the selection tool. 97 00:06:12,280 --> 00:06:18,460 So to edit at x day or just double click on it and then you can click anywhere and start editing or 98 00:06:18,460 --> 00:06:25,690 using the cursor left and right and if you like Koum and and and you can edit your text so it's pretty 99 00:06:25,690 --> 00:06:27,640 easy pretty simple. 100 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:33,590 So now you have learned how to add the text and how to edit the text and how to move the text layer. 101 00:06:33,630 --> 00:06:38,300 So not just what happened in the timeline a text layer has been created. 102 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,080 Not is the Tiefer text there. 103 00:06:40,330 --> 00:06:45,480 And it's actually showing you what you have written and this is the motion graphics text. 104 00:06:45,580 --> 00:06:48,620 If you throw it down a bit you will notice that you have text. 105 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,980 This is the content itself and you have the transform. 106 00:06:52,060 --> 00:06:59,440 This is transformation for any meeting the text layer itself within the text you will have several options 107 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,210 here that we will see later on in the course. 108 00:07:02,380 --> 00:07:03,880 Thanks very much for listening. 109 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,380 I will see you in the next lecture.
