This quick after effects tutorial will show you how to create complex and super customizable text animations with only using 2 keyframes. Follow along and create your own text animations. plus learn a thing or two about expressions.

For those following along with this tutorial. here is the expression as used in this video
text.animator("Start").selector("Range Selector 1").offset.valueAtTime(time-(1/24))

make sure you use the same names, or change the names in this expression, and if you want to adjust the frame delay, pick whip to a slider replacing the "1" in the expression (at 1/24)

Be sure to comment if you have any questions.
