How to Create Animated Bouncing Text

Earlier, you learned how to have a bounce text effect in Adobe After Effects . However, because AE is a complex application and has a steep learning curve, this section explains the two alternative ways to get the same effect on your existing video footage.

When talking about Wondershare Filmora , the application is populated with several presets for texts and titles, animations, effects, filters, and much more.

These pre-built templates not only make your task easier, they also save your decent amount of time that you would spend while working with After Effects or any other similar app that requires you to build things from scratch.

You can follow the instructions given below to add animated bounce text to any of your video footages with Filmora:

Step 1: Add a Footage to Timeline

Launch Wondershare Filmora on your Windows or Mac PC. By default, the aspect ratio of the project is set to 16:9. Click anywhere inside the Media window at the upper-left section, and select and import footage you want to add bounce text to.

Step 2: Insert Text and Add Bounce Effect

Click Titles from the standard toolbar at the top, and click and drag your preferred title template from the Library to the timeline. In case you don’t want any specific animation or style on the title, you can use the default title.

In the timeline, double-click the title you just added, use the upper-left section to edit the text, go to the Animation tab from the left pane, scroll down the list, and double-click the Up Down 1 or Up Down 2 preset to apply the bounce effect to the credits. Click OK to save the changes and to get back to the main window.

Step 3: Add Shake Filters

Go to Effects from the standard toolbar, expand the Filters category from the left pane, and click Shake. From the Library window, click and drag your preferred shake filter to the timeline. Here, I will choose Mild.

You can customize the default effect by double-clicking the shake filter in the timeline, using the sliders in the upper-left area of the interface to make necessary adjustments, and then clicking OK to save the changes and to get back to the previous interface.

Step 4: Export the Final Output

Click EXPORT from the top of the interface, go to the Local tab in the Export box, choose your preferred output format from the list in the left, make required customizations from the right pane, and click EXPORT from the bottom-right corner to export the video.

Now, you can add the bouncing text video and the background video to the timeline, and then place the bouncing text video above the background video track.

Double click the text track, go to the Chroma Key effect, select the Color Picker tool, and click anywhere in the Preview window to get things right. Finally, export the entire project to your preferred output format as explained in Step 4.

As explained before, Wondeshare Filmora makes the entire process of creating and adding bounce text effect pretty simple. With all the pre-build templates, and the versatility of the options that can be used to customize those presets, you can come up with the effects that are usually obtained when you start generating them from the scratch.

Method 2: Generate Animated Bouncing Texts Online

If you don’t want any heavy and resource-intensive app on your PC merely for some special text effects, you can try any of the online solutions instead. The benefit of using any such web app is that all the processing is done on site’s server, and it is only a web browser and an Internet connection that you need to have at your side.

Some most trusted websites to generate bounce text are listed below:

1. ENGFTO

Website: https://engfto.com/index/create%5Fanimated%5Fbouncing%5Ftext/0-26

You can follow the instructions given below to use Engfto to generate bouncing text for your footages:

Step 1: Get to the Animated Bouncing Text Page

Launch your favorite web browser, and go to the link given above to get to the Engfto’s animated bouncing text page.

Step 2: Customize Text and Preferences

Modify the values in the fields under the SIZE AREA and TEXT sections to customize the text area, the text itself, its size, and font. Next, adjust the values in the fields under the EFFECT PARAMETERS section to get the required bounce effect. Also, use the fields under the BACKGROUND section to either change the background color, or pick a background image from your PC.

Step 3: Obtain the Animated Text

Click the SAVE GIF ANIMATION button from the lower section of the page to download the animated text to your PC.

2. Loading.io

The instructions given below explain how to use Loading.io to get animated bounce text effect for your footages:

Step 1: Get to the Loading.io Webpage

Launch your favorite web browser and go to https://loading.io/animation/text/ .

Step 2: Customize the Text and Choose Animation Effect

Use the options available on the webpage to type your text, and change its font, color, background, transparency level etc. Select Bounce (or any of its variants) from the Animation drop-down list, and adjust the speed using the Speed slider.

Step 3: Obtain the Text

Click your preferred option from next to the Download As section to download the animated text to your PC.

Note: Regardless of the web solution you choose to generate and obtain animated bounce text, you will still need a post-production tool to add the downloaded text to your footage.

Conclusion

Generating bounce text effect is much simpler when you use Wondershare Filmora or any of the online solutions as explained in Method 2. While the former gives you more flexibility when it comes to customizations, the latter doesn’t require any app to be installed on your PC. In addition, many times the web apps offer their services for free, and therefore they are preferred by the novice users who are not much into post-production processes.

Hosting a Webinar for Free

The world’s largest video sharing platform also features broadcasting options that enable its users to schedule events and thus host webinars free of charge. Previously known as the Google Hangouts on Air, the YouTube Live feature is fairly simple to set up, but before you start your first webinar you will need to choose a landing page and a chatbox. If you already have a website you can simply copy and paste the embed link and create a landing page for your webinar, or you can use landing pages software products such as LeadPages or Unbounce if you don’t have your own online domain. For setting up chatboxes for your webinars we recommend using Chatroll or RumbleTalk platforms, although you’ll have to pay a fee if you choose to chat with your audience using these computer programs. So here’s how you can host your first webinar on YouTube for free.

Step 1. Create a YouTube Event

If you don’t already have an account on YouTube, you’ll have to create one before you can schedule your first live event. After making sure that you are logged in to your YouTube account head over to the Creator Studio, and click on the Live Streaming tab. Select the New Live Event option and proceed to insert the basic information about the event such as the title, date when the event should take place, tags or a short description of the webinar you’re planning.

The Advanced Settings tab will enable you the access to options that will allow you to assign the license and the owner of the webinar. You can also choose the language, set the location or select the category of the event.

Step 2. Copy the Embed Code and Paste it To Your Webinar’s Landing Page

When you adjust all the settings for your upcoming event, you should click on the Share button. This action will grant you access to the video’s embed link, so you can just copy it to your website, or to the landing page you’ve created with the appropriate software.

Step 3. Add the Chatbox to The Webinar’s Landing Page

Communicating with the audience during the webinar is important, and for that reason, embedding the chatbox link on the webinar’s landing page is a crucial step that will allow you to interact with the participants of your webinar. Chatbox platforms for live events such as Chatroll or RumbleTalk offer amazing features, but they cannot be used for free, which means that you’ll have to invest a certain amount of money in order to include a chatbox in your webinar.

Step 4. Publish the Webinar’s Landing Page and Get the URL

Making the event public a week or a few days before it takes place will provide you with enough time to promote it. Include the webinar’s landing page URL in the promotional social media posts and make sure to send out invites for your webinar to your friends and colleagues. Email marketing methods can help you get a larger number of attendees, which is the reason why investing time in the promotion of your webinar can prove to be extremely beneficial.

Step 5. Start your Webinar

Hit the Go Live Now button, when you are ready to start your first webinar and enjoy sharing your skills and knowledge with your audience. Even though YouTube offers a simple way to host webinars for free, it lacks the advanced options that enable you to use the prerecorded footage, keep track of the webinar’s analytics or create virtual whiteboards and polls.
