Behavior Examples

The following two examples illustrate different ways that groups of behaviors can be
combined to create different effects.

Example 1: Creating an Animated Title

In this example, multiple behaviors are used to bring up four text objects to create a
title. The first three text objects fly in from the sides, while the last text object zooms
out from the center of the screen.

Important:

This example assumes that the Create Objects At preference in the Project

Preferences pane is set to Start of Project, so that newly applied behaviors are placed
from the beginning of each object all the way through the end.

To create an animated title sequence:

1

Arrange the first two graphic objects to determine their vertical position in your
composition.

2

Select both objects, click the Add Behavior icon in the Toolbar, and choose Basic
Motion > Motion Path from the pop-up menu to apply this behavior to both objects at
the same time.
