Intertwined Text Animation - After Effects Tutorial
Today I will be going over how to animate intertwined text. It’s a fairly straight forward tutorial with a couple of techniques that are super useful in a myriad of situations. It’s also a fun excuse to play around with different fonts and combining them to make something cool lolololol
Anyways, I hope you learned something new from this video or at least just enjoyed following along!
As always, thank you for watching.
