This is the type of videos I'm looking to make. Idk if I can do it in FCPX, let me know if there are any ways. I don't want to download Motion 5, I want ways to do it in FCPX only.
Thanks!

You could make text into compound clips and apply the effect to those.
It's going to be pretty time consuming and clunky though.
Best bet is to buy Motion, download a Motion 5 template from somewhere like Videohive and carefully just change the words inside the template. That's prob how that video example was created.
Search for "typography" on Videohive.
You can teach yourself the basics of Motion with a bit of Googling.
Hope helps.

may I critique something 'fundamental'?
Since Neville Brody revolutionized the usage of Typography in the early 80ies, 'art direction' loves to 'paint' with typography. Compare to the discussion about iOS7' usage of the Helvetica Leicht as 'bread & butter' font...
I'm trying to read, when I see letters.
You're writing vertical - hard/impossible to read.
You add lots of effects.
But the MAIN effect should be to 'stress' or highlight words, sentences, content, thoughts.
Not l'art pour l'art ...
For a first experiment well done!
But try to visualize the IDEA of a text ...............

Like you said... very enjoyable, thank you.
So, I suppose the final effect is when we pull out we see that all that kinetic verbiage was creating the word "language." Clever.

And the title 'Stephen Fry Kinetic Typography' didn't give you a hint?TrixTrax9000 wrote: Fun thread. I just wanted to chime in on how outstandingly excellent the "best example was. At first I thought it was John Cleese rattling on about words, when in fact it was Stephen Fry.
But agreed, it was great. As often is the case with Stephen Fry.
