hi in this video I'm going to show you
0:03
on how you can create a scrolling text
0:06
effect or sometimes called a running
0:08
text animation using Cana now just to be
0:11
clear that this feature is not yet
0:13
available in Cana you cannot create such
0:15
effect in this platform and this is not
0:18
uh not surprising because Cana is not
0:20
really designed for that but there is an
0:23
animation effect that we could exploit
0:25
to create an effect very similar to a
0:27
running text that you might have seen in
0:30
a television especially when you're
0:32
watching news so here we go let's go to
0:35
text and I'm going to insert some text
0:37
that will be shown on uh the running
0:40
text so the text is going to be
0:44
subscribe and paste and after after that
0:48
I'm going to just copy text over and
0:51
over again uh it's going to be very long
0:54
string of text because at the end of the
0:56
day it is uh running text is really just
0:59
a paragraph converted into a very long
1:02
string of text so just one line of text
1:05
and after that you want to turn this
1:07
text box from multiple lines into just
1:09
one line I'm going to zoom out a bit and
1:12
let's increase
1:15
that okay still not enough
1:20
and okay now it's becoming just one
1:24
string of text and I'm going to put that
1:26
at the bottom of the design may be right
1:29
here
1:30
and after that we are ready to start
1:33
some adding some animation to this text
1:35
box let's go to animate and create an
1:39
animation okay I I do recommend to press
1:43
and hold the shift key on the keyboard
1:45
to create a straight lines so I want to
1:48
click on this animation first I want to
1:50
click on the text box and press on hold
1:52
the shift key and after that you want to
1:55
drag that the right slowly it doesn't
1:59
have to be fast just do it slowly the
2:02
slower the better you don't have to be
2:04
consistent because later we can change
2:05
the
2:06
setting and there you go so there's an
2:09
option to change the speed I'm going to
2:10
reduce that to the minimum and the
2:14
Styles is going to be steady so there we
2:17
go let's preview the animation I'm going
2:19
to click
2:20
play and that was the result it's not
2:24
perfect as you can see this is not
2:26
something that are going to be similar
2:28
to a proper Tex that you might have seen
2:31
in a television because they usually
2:32
will loop from the beginning again but
2:34
this method doesn't allow you to do that
2:36
this is only good for a few seconds of
2:39
use and also you you have to increase
2:42
the length of the item sorry the video
2:45
as well so one thing to keep in mind is
2:48
to make sure the video or the file that
2:50
we working on has more than 5 seconds in
2:53
this example I do have almost 40 seconds
2:56
of this particular file if you want to
2:59
increase the you can go to thumbnail
3:00
View and you can increase the duration
3:03
right here so it's going to make sure
3:06
that the animation will have a a very
3:09
slow and steady movement and will appear
3:12
throughout the whole video anyway that's
3:15
exactly how you can create an running
3:17
text in Cana
