Text animation maker

Type something, pick a font, and make it move: words that slam in one per beat, a title that sharpens out of a blur, captions that pop, a number that counts up. Every piece of text sits on the timeline, so you decide exactly when it arrives, how it moves and when it leaves.

How it works

  1. 1

    Add a text, type your words and pick from more than 1,300 Google Fonts.

  2. 2

    Choose how it comes in and goes out: fade, slide, scale, pop, bounce, elastic, blur, rotate or flip. A number can count up to its value.

  3. 3

    Export an MP4 for social or video, a GIF, or a transparent WebM to lay the words over your footage.

Timing does most of the work

Good text animation is rhythm: one idea at a time, each line landing a beat after the last, and long enough on screen to be read. Drag a text along the timeline to move it, stretch it to keep it on screen longer, and play it back until it feels right.

Words over video

Set the background to transparent and export a WebM: the text keeps its transparency, ready to use as a title, a caption or a lower third on top of your own footage.

Questions

Which fonts can I use?
Any of the more than 1,300 Google Fonts, from clean sans serifs to scripts and display faces.
Can I animate each word separately?
Yes: give each word its own text element and its own timing. That's how the kinetic typography template works, one word per beat.
Can I add music?
Yes. Add an audio file to the scene and it's included in the MP4 or WebM you export.
Is there a watermark?
No. Every export is free and clean.
