This After Effects tutorial shows how to make a growing vine or flourish that thickens as it grows. For more examples, see the Growing Flourishes Collection at creationeffects.com/growing-flourishes-collection.
Most growing flourish tutorials show how to make a vine image appear to grow by animating a mask to reveal the vine bit by bit. It doesn't thicken, it takes longer, and it doesn't look as good. This method will allow you to draw a path, and then apply a growing stroke on the path using the Write-On effect.
The "Growing Flourishes Collection" is an After Effects template that includes a large library of growing elements like grass, branches, leaves, vines, and more. You can easily customize the flourishes, and combine them to create beautiful, more complex designs.
Also included are five finished title animations - simply plug in your text and they're ready to export. Or, build your own designs with the included vines, grasses, leaves, branches, and other elements featuring smooth, natural-looking growth. Best of all, they're completely customizable!
