Twisty text is a really fun, complex looking kinetic typography technique in After Effects, but it’s really not that hard to pull off. I’ll show you how to get that twisted text look with the Time Displacement effect in After Effects, and how to pull it off using Cinema 4D Lite, which is bundled with After Effects. If you haven’t taken advantage of having access to Cinema 4D with your Creative Cloud subscription, let this tutorial end that streak. Now let’s get to some twisting!
