  I set up a source file for this. feel was write. It has to be separate layers. At first I tried it with multiple effects on one layer but the effects overwrote themselves. I put in expressions for the masks, valueAtTime for the delay and an expression slider to have the delay decrease over time. You'll see when you open it.

  Keep in mind the font used in the original post was a custom that used strokes and not outlines of a font. So that left side of the M is one stroke, not a slanty rectangle. I hope that makes sense.

  • this is amazing. how do i transfer that smoothness to mine? I did ease in/out but it doesn't flow like yoursjuanluisgarcia
  • There are two factors. One is the basic easing in the Blue layer on bottom that I used graph editor to get a very slow ease at the end.CyBrainX
  • Then, I used the expression slider in the blue layer (theDelay) to set the delay between layers. I set it to decrease over time.CyBrainX
