Aescripts - Text At Marker

Text At Marker by Aescripts is a powerful After Effects plugin designed to bring unmatched precision and control to text animation. Created specifically for motion designers and typographers, this tool simplifies complex animation setups while unlocking creative flexibility for animating words, lines, and characters with intuitive marker-based controls.

Instead of relying on traditional range selectors, Text At Marker allows you to trigger text animations using keyframes aligned with layer markers. This method enables clean, straightforward workflows perfect for kinetic typography, explainer videos, and motion graphics projects that demand detailed timing and synchronization with audio or visuals.

With Text At Marker, you gain full control over how text appears and behaves. Customize animations using built-in easing and expressions such as bounce, overshoot, or elastic motion. You can animate text sequentially or in groups by using numbered markers and delay values, giving you precise control over timing and rhythm.

The plugin supports flexible triggering modes, allowing you to animate words, characters, or lines independently. You can define the animation direction—default, reverse, random, or custom order—based on layer names or sequences for more dynamic layouts.

Advanced marker functionality lets you fine-tune animations by skipping specific markers, using starting characters in marker names, or offsetting timing to perfectly match music beats or voiceovers. These features make it ideal for crafting synced, responsive animations in complex compositions.

Text At Marker also includes powerful marker management tools. You can create, rename, remove, and distribute markers with ease across layers and compositions, streamlining your animation process and ensuring consistent timing across projects.

Additionally, the Effects Stacking feature allows you to apply multiple text animation effects simultaneously. You can individually keyframe, ease, and customize each effect for detailed, layered animations that stand out.

Whether you're a motion designer working on cinematic typography or an animator building responsive title sequences, Text At Marker delivers a streamlined, professional-grade solution for text animation in Adobe After Effects.
