Creating synchronised text to music

Jul 24, 2012 3:52 AM

Tags: #text #after_effects #xml

What I want to do is quite simple to explain but possibly tricky to execute.  I want to create synchronised text to match music exactly like you’d see on a karaoke video or a game like Singstar. eg

I have data files that contain the text / timecode information and I understand that Adobe After Effects can import things like XML .  Assuming that I can parse the data so that it fits the Adobe format, does it sound like this might be feasible?   In addition, if this is possible what’s the format / standard for this sort of process?

 

From my limited understanding, Adobe After Effects is the tool most likely do the job but if there is a better one in the Adobe suite or elsewhere (Final Cut?), I’d be interested in knowing this.
