Words with depth, flying in.

Start from words that already fly in.

The page opens on a 3D scene with words made solid, a camera, lights and keys that bring the words in. It is made of the editor's own parts and keys, so every part of it can be changed.

Type your own words.

Change the words, the font and its weight. The fonts are the ones that come with the site, and the words are made from their letters' outlines, so they look the same on every device and in every file.

For flat words that move, such as a caption or a price, the 2D editor does it with parts of their own look.

Depth and rounded edges.

Depth sets how thick the letters are; rounding softens their edges so they catch the light. The holes in letters such as A, O and B stay open. Its look is a colour, how metal and how rough it is, and how see-through.

Make them fly in.

In Animate, key where the words stand, how they turn and their size at each moment: start them far behind and turned away, and bring them to the front. Easing decides how they arrive: Slow down for a soft stop, Overshoot to come a little too far and settle.

The camera and the lights take keys too, so the light can sweep across the letters as they land.

Save it.

An MP4 or WebM video for a post or a video editor, a GIF for a chat or an email, or a PNG of one frame, each with no watermark; a video has no clear background, so it is saved with the scene's background colour. An animated GLB has no background of its own: a 3D viewer or a website draws the words over its own. Every file is checked before it is offered.
