I think I've learned more about kdenlive watching you animate text than the last dozen videos I've watched on kdenlive period. Thanks for the great content!
WOW - I've been using Kdenlive for ages and I think I just learned more in five minutes of your video than three years of struggling with it myself. Thanks so much.
This is really great, using multiple effects by stacking them and then again stacking it for each letter is some that would not occur naturally for a beginner. one would think it too difficult. You really made it look easy and doable for a beginner. Thank you
Hello Arkengheist 2.0 thanks again for this excellent tutorial. It seems that nothing can surpass you ;) . Good continuation and especially in waiting for your tutorials. Take care of yourself
box blur isn't the same though, it's not normal/gaussian blur as all, so the result isn't what i want... I use it for motion blur but i think it looks too square and geometrical for this
I mean, it's up to you! You could change clips and just have the text disappear, or make it dissolve, or do the same thing but backwards... lots of options!
I was following along and able to make a title screen by rotoscoping words to fade in instead of letters and it looks great! Next, I wanted 5 lines of text to slide in on the bottom left 1 at a time using the same technique. I made the title clip, rotoscoped the 1st line/word, and EVERYTHING, all lines of text disappear. The 1st line/word should still be visible. Any idea whats going?
I tested version 21.04 exporting a video in 720p, 1080p and 4K resolutions and AMD VAAPI h.264 encoding. In all three resolutions the CPU load (6-core Ryzen) remained very low at around 11%. Which is actually nice if you want to continue working on other tasks. Compared to Nvidia GPUs, AMD GPUs still remain useful when doing rendering work in the background, whereas Nvidia video output gets jerky (at least when tested earlier with a GTX 1060). Seems AMD can somehow better support computation tasks in the background without affecting too much the foreground GUI experience. GPU loads according to radeontop: 720p: around 30% 1080p: around 15% 4K: around 6% In 720p a 2:56 min video took 2:11 minutes. In 1080p it took slightly above 3 minutes and in 4K it was way more >10 minuts. I didn't let the 4K finish as I didn't want to wait. No effects. Just a raw clip recorded with OBS. Seems like there's still a lot of optimization needed especially for the high resolutions. It would be also nice if it was possible to combine CPU and GPU power for those who need rendering speed in first place. I personally prefer a relaxed CPU. Results of video quality 720p and 1080p: all good as far as I can judge (not an AV professional here) GPU: RX460 4GB, VAAPI, opensource AMGPU drivers.
Maybe it's easy, but I can't seem to get it. I'm using Version 21.04.3 on Windows an under Effects\Blur and Sharpen - I don't see simple BLUR effect that I've seen you use in this tutorial. I see Average Blur, Box Blur, Gaussian, Shape Adaptive, Smartblur, Square Blur, but there is no just BLUR that is keyframable. Merci beaucoup. I like your work. Best regards.
Nice video, but I noticed a strange thing, when I put screen the writing remains semi-transparent even with 100% opacity. I followed all your instructions but the writing remains semi-transparent.
@@polpettaio that's weird, you should not see the black at all if you used a black rectangle, see the gray semi-transparent and the white fully opaque :/ You would probably need multiple title clip because you keed a multiply composition for the black text with a white rectangle, and a screen transition for the white text with a black rectangle. Grey is quite hard to deal white so I'd recommend black or white text with the opposite color rectangle + add some brightness to the clip once the compositing is done

Your techniques are mind blowing. Thanks for the great video
Amazing and somewhat intimidating. Now I understand why they say the software is so powerful. It takes someone with your skill level to use it.
Very informative. Best channel on kdenlive?
Thank you took me a while, but I got it to work.
Hello Arkengheist 2.0
thanks again for this excellent tutorial. It seems that nothing can surpass you ;) . Good continuation and especially in waiting for your tutorials. Take care of yourself
Wow, really neat effect!
I really liked the sound of your mouse scroll wheel
Zeu top !!
Forza Corsica !!!
Girl... u rock !!!!
Awesome! that's exactly what I was looking for
The offset of the letters really make the difference
Box blur works on transparencies. Now you can use colors other than black or white and don't need a darken/lighten composite. ;)
box blur isn't the same though, it's not normal/gaussian blur as all, so the result isn't what i want... I use it for motion blur but i think it looks too square and geometrical for this
2:03 ~ press RIGHT-CLICK (to close the "thing") .... I got soo frustrated until I found it for myself lol!
Thank's for another great tutorial. Question: How the letters should dissappear at the end?
I mean, it's up to you! You could change clips and just have the text disappear, or make it dissolve, or do the same thing but backwards... lots of options!
@@Arkengheist20 I can't find rotoscope. Can you help me?
@@Iaintnocat umm, you ground find it by searching for it, type rotoscoping. Also be careful of effect tabs
@@Arkengheist20 thanks. On turkish, there isn’t any meaning of rotoscope. So there is nothing like that. Now I’m using english version
another excellent vid :)

It's really hard to understand everythibg from words, but maybe play with composite and which track they are on
amazing tutorial! Thanks!

What if I have two or three words and lines. It will take a long time and tok much tracks!
Well yes it will take a while, thats what I said at the end, it's roughly 30s per letter though, it's not "that" bad
How about grouping effect. Then changed value
oh gawd light mode
Great tutorial! How did u learn this? Keep making videos plz.
Just trial and error
That was cool
thank youuuuu
Very good tutorial bravo🙏👍
May I ask you which kdenlive version are you using on the video tutorial?
sorry, I'm not sure for this one specifically, as i'm always keeping up with the versions, this one may have been 20.08
@@Arkengheist20 OK thanks a lot for the information! I might download the latest 20.12 which might have some new features.
Maybe it's easy, but I can't seem to get it. I'm using Version 21.04.3 on Windows an under Effects\Blur and Sharpen - I don't see simple BLUR effect that I've seen you use in this tutorial.

it's now in deprecated, but you can still use it. It's just that if your preview window isn't in 1:1 resolution, it won't look right
Nice video, but I noticed a strange thing, when I put screen the writing remains semi-transparent even with 100% opacity. I followed all your instructions but the writing remains semi-transparent.
what colour is your text ?
@@Arkengheist White, gray and black, but I see transparency in each of these colors
@@polpettaio that's weird, you should not see the black at all if you used a black rectangle, see the gray semi-transparent and the white fully opaque :/

Grey is quite hard to deal white so I'd recommend black or white text with the opposite color rectangle + add some brightness to the clip once the compositing is done
Makes me wish there is a good way to automate this
Like a script? It would be nice to have such a feature.
