    Wave Warp transition

    mentalcase129 Community Member

      I'm trying to achieve an effect using Premiere Pro CS3, that I imagine is doable but a little difficult to put into words.  I have credits dissolving on and off the screen and I wanted the words to be wavy during their transition on and off.  The wave warp effect gives me the effect that I want but the problem is I need to transition from the full on wave effect to nothing, I want it to start out wavy and then settle and be still so that the words are easily ledgable.  The only way I can seem to do this is by keyframing the wave height and width so that they work their way down to zero from their starting position..the problem with that is the nice wave effect that I want is only at the beginning and as the wave size gets smaller it also moves faster and is not at all what I want it to look like.  I want to be able to set the wave height and width the way I want them and keep them there, I just want the movement to slow to a stop with out the effect drastically changing as it happens. 

       

      Any suggestions?  I've seen this effect in movies before and I wish I could provide a link to better illustrate what I'm talking about but at the moment none are coming to mind.
