Using one of Animography’s Razor animated font, Michael Delaney demonstrates how to make existing animated typefaces work with Characteristic for After Effects. Characteristic is a tool that makes it so much quicker to string together words, sentences and phrases of animated typefaces in After Effects.
Rather than dragging each character from the project folder to your timeline, simply type out your word(s) and see your animated type on-screen in seconds
Michael notes that most newer typefaces from Animography will already be compatible, however, if you have an older one, or are making your own, he walks through the process of how to do that. Characteristic is $39.99 at AEScripts and To find out more about Characteristic for After Effects, check the page at AEScripts here.
