Applies wave-driven motion to text and layer properties in After Effects, with dozens of wave types and live preview.

What TypePlay does

TypePlay, by Othman Ahmed, is a wave-based animator for After Effects. Rather than keyframing, you let waves drive any text or layer property, producing flowing, rhythmic motion.

Dozens of wave types are on offer, together with easing modes and direction controls. Individual controllers can be linked to a master, a live interactive preview shows changes as you make them, and a preset system saves, loads and manages setups. Motion designers building bouncing, undulating titles and organic movements will get results quickly.
