At the end of a movie, I want to write some test using chalk on board-effect.

Anyone know how I can do that?

In Motion 5. I've found fonts that work well called "Chalkduster" and "Chalkboard SE". Fontsquirrel.com and 1001freefonts.com offer a nice selection of specialty fonts.

To get them to write themselves on to the screen, you'll need to draw over your text with bezier tool, then apply the Write On behavior.

Something along those lines. Been a long time since I've done that effect.

Two most basic tools, time for some proper Motion training. Do a quick search of Behaviors in the Library tab (search field at bottom). But I believe they are in the Shape behavior collection.

Having a hard time getting this, but I´ve put this on ice at the time. Not on my do-to-list on this side of the year.
But I´ll have this tread in my mind when trying again.
