Kinetic typography is the slick-looking
effect you may have seen before with easy
animations on clean,
brightly colored backgrounds.
You can actually create these
text videos in Keynote.
You will use these frequently for
explanatory type videos, for example.
Let's start on a slide design like this
one and add our very first text box.
Let's change the font by
clicking on Format and
then change it to a nice big
Sans Serif font like Futura.
Next up, let's switch over to animating
this by clicking on the Animate tab.
Now I'll click on Add an Effect,
I'll choose Flip for this first one.
Then I'll go ahead and click on the second
text box and choose another animation.
And this time I'll choose Move In, which
will bring the text in from the side.
One of the key parts of the kinetic
effect is that these kind of happen at
the same time.
I'll click on Build Order and
then drag these up into the same box to
bring them onto the canvas
at basically the same time.
Then I'll click Preview and
see that all animated together.
Now you just repeat this
effect with more text and
more slides to really create
an animated kinetic video.
And you can even export this to a video
file, ready for YouTube, from Keynote.
