In this chapter, we learned about the powerful and complex world of shape layers. We learned how to create custom shapes, edit them, and create animation with these shapes. We learned how to use shape layers as transition elements in our projects. We also learned about the exciting world of text animation presets. We learned how to animate in and out of text animation. Remember—text presets are the starting point for kinetic typography. Play with these parameters to get unique animations. You don't want your animations to be too predictable and look as though they came directly from a preset. Alter the text presets to create something unique.
