Per-character motion.

Animate letters within a text layer.

Text Animators move individual characters inside a single editable text layer. The letters arrive in a staggered rise, share a small wave, then settle into one readable title. Character selectors, offsets and the original words remain editable.

A prompt to start from

Use Tesseract. Create a Charcoal typographic wave study with “Make waves.” as one Exposure text layer in Bone. Use Text Animators with index-based character selectors: each letter rises 100 px and rotates nine degrees into place, staggered by 65 ms with a 900 ms cubic ease-out. After the entrance, pass a subtle 16 px vertical wave through the individual letters between two and 4.2 seconds, then hold the complete line still. Draw three shallow Sea/Sky cubic waves below the title as strokes. Keep the actual characters in a single editable text document, never separate raster letters.

Tesseract plugins and runtime downloads are coming soon.
