How to make star wars-style text animation in Storyline

Hi Rebecca,

You've got to love a good pop culture inspiration for a project!

An easy solution would be to create a video of the Star Wars-style crawl animation outside of Storyline 360 and then import it in.

We have a tutorial on the Articulate 360 YouTube channel that covers creating this kind of effect in PowerPoint. It's a few years old, so the user interface for PowerPoint has changed since then, but the approach still works. Once the animation is all set in PowerPoint, all you'd have to do is export the file as a video and then bring it into your Storyline project.

Another option is to search for Star Wars into crawl generator sites. Just input your copy and the site will quickly generate your customized crawl video. They often have a fee for downloading the finished video or removing the company's watermark from it, but it could be the quicker option if you have a small budget for this.

I hope this helps. And if you're able to share it, I'd love to see the final solution you go with.
