Every letter on its own spring, two frames apart, landing wider than it is tall.

Make your own story title card

A bouncy title card where every letter lands on its own spring, two frames apart, so the phrase arrives as a wave. Say a sentence like the one below and your agent writes you a different one — free, in your browser.

Say this to your agent

>A bouncy title card that says "Once upon a time".

Or ask for a different one

Not settings — each one builds something else.

  • >The same bounce but for the words 'The End'.

  • >A storybook title card with a border that draws itself and then holds.

  • >A bouncy card for a chapter title in a children's audiobook.

What it worked out on its own

  • The stagger is the whole animation: at two frames a letter the phrase lands as a wave, at six it reads as one letter at a time and outstays its welcome.

  • The squash comes free from the same spring — take the overshoot past 1 out of the height and put it into the width.

  • The border draws itself in the first twelve frames, so the card is a page before it is a sentence.
