Course Description

In this course, you'll learn all the basic skills necessary to create Dynamic Kinetic Typography using ProShow Producer.

Kinetic Typography is a specific type of animation that uses only words and shapes within the animation.  These can be used as Title Slides, Show Openers, Credit Rolls and much more.

The majority of the Kinetic Typography animations you'll see on the Web or on Television were created using Adobe After Effects.  ProShow Producer is a bit more limited in it's capabilities, but that doesn't mean it can't be done!  In this course you'll learn to create Kinetic Typography Animations using:

  1. Captions Layers
    1. Using Texture on a Caption
    2. Fly-Ins to create motion
    3. Position a Caption using the Text Setting tab instead of the Effects Tab
  1. Text Layers
    1. Blur
    2. Transparency
    3. 3D Tilt
    4. Masking
    5. Parenting Layers to a Modifier
    6. Understand the importance of the Rotation Center

Jennifer as usual does a very good job of explaining how to accomplish kinetic typography. Each movement of the individual elements are simple. It is orchestrating the whole that is complex. While a long time user of proshow, I always learn something new. Thanx

This lady does an excellent job of explaning what she is doing!

This course covers the basics of creating kinetic typography through Proshow. Although that's equally important, the instructor could've taken us through advanced kinetic typography examples as well. KT using the text layers, esp. was inadequate. But whatever has been presented here, has been presented well, as usual.

I love everything that Jennifer does, she is very clear in her explanations and she is very easy to understand. Great instructor

A wealth of useful information on the specific topic (kinetic typography) with numerous tidbits on good design habits and tips & tricks in Proshow Producer. Jennifer teaches at a good pace, and she's very engaging in her approach. She seems to anticipate your questions or problems. I have learned a tremendous amount with her courses.

So far, so good...well explained and animated.

By JoAnn Ellis on 8/12/2017

Jennifer has a very calm and clear voice that makes you want to continue learning. She explains things very clearly and I like that she includes her own mistakes so we can learn from them as well. I also love your "Modifer" portion, lol. Very well done lecture. Thank you, JoAnn
