Typography that moves with the voice
Each word comes in on the beat of the voiceover, in fonts, colors and textures that fit the mood, with a sound effect on every hit. It is kinetic typography, the look motion designers spend days keyframing, made in about 2 minutes.
Choose the fonts, colors, textures and how each word enters, or let Sleepy decide. Upload your own fonts on paid plans, or put the words inside a 3D scene with Sleepy Pro.

Questions
How do I make an animated text video?
Type what you want to say and Sleepy Motion turns it into a video: the words animate in time with the voiceover, styled with real typography, music and sound effects. No After Effects and no keyframes.
What is kinetic typography?
Text that moves: words that animate in, grow, and change style in time with a voice or music. It usually takes a motion designer days of keyframing. Sleepy Motion does it automatically.
Can I animate a quote?
Yes. Ask for it, for example: Animate this quote: "Stay hungry, stay foolish". Sleepy times every word to the voiceover and styles it to fit the mood.
Can I use my own fonts?
Pick from the built-in fonts on any plan, or let Sleepy choose. On paid plans you can also upload your own font files.
Can the words be inside a 3D scene?
