How to Make a Lyric Video in Adobe After Effects CS6

================================================================================

Adobe After Effects is an industry-standard motion graphics and compositing software that allows users to create stunning visual effects for their videos. One of the most popular features of After Effects is its ability to import audio files, which can then be synchronized with footage or other media elements within a timeline.

In this article, we will explore how you can make a lyric video in Adobe After Effect CS6 by following these simple steps:

Step 1: Import Your Audio File

-----------------------------

To start creating your lyric video, first, import the audio file that contains the lyrics you want to display. To do this:

* Open Adobe Premiere Pro or any other media editing software and export your desired track as an MP3 or WAV format.

* Once exported, go back to After Effects CS6 and click on File > Import -> Interpret Footage.

Step 2: Add Text Layers

----------------

After importing the audio file into After Effect's timeline, it is now time to add text layers that will display your lyrics. To do this:

1. Double-click anywhere in the Timeline panel where you want to place a new layer.

2. In the New Layer window, under 'Layer Type,' select Text and click OK.

Step 3: Animate Your Lyrics

----------------------

Once you have added multiple text layers with different lyric lines within them, it's time to animate these layers so that they appear on screen at specific times while your music plays in sync. With the timeline selected (you'll know this because there will be a little magnifying glass icon next Waistband), drag any of those individual layer names onto the desired points along an empty space bar area above each corresponding frame number label below it Faithfully follow these instructions closely as follows:

1. Select all layers by holding down Command or Control + A on Mac/PC respectively.

2 Click-and-drag one corner point upwards/downwards until you see a blue line appear across its entire width; this indicates that there's been applied motion keyframe data.

Step 4: Preview Your Lyric Video

------------------------------

After adding text layers and animating them, it is now time to preview your lyric video. To do this:

1. Press the spacebar (the default keyboard shortcut) or any other preview keyboard shortcut like Shift+spacebar, Numpad-0, etc., depending on your operating system.

Your lyric video should now play back in Adobe After Effects CS6 with audio and cached frames until you press Esc to stop it or reach the end of your timeline.
