I have tried to use keyframes for animating text in some of my videos in the past, but found that its extremely difficult to make the final animations to match the video itself. I am trying to use keyframing in a project i'm working on right now and would love to get some feedback. I am 100% self taught, and feel like I may be lacking some knowledge on this. +K for good feedback

Would love it if you guys could visit my page as well!

Sounds like you're trying to hand track text over a moving background, which is really difficult to do perfectly. What program are you using?

Are you talking about tracking titles? there are way easier ways to do it, you don't need to use keyframes, use 3d motion tracking in after effects.
