I have built a presentation welcoming new arrivals to our camp here in
Baghdad and have encountered a problem with the special effect for the
welcoming message from the site manager. The sequence of events for the
opening slide is as follows:
1. Map of Iraq “pinwheels†in, at the same time a wav file of the Star Wars
opening theme begins.
2. As soon as the map settles the site manager’s welcoming text starts to
scroll – “At a Forward Operating Base far, far, away ….†It has the
following properties:
A. Text box,
B. Entrance: Credits
C. Effect:
1. No Sound (Star Wars in playing)
2. After Animation – Don’t Dim
3. Animate text – All at once
D. Timing:
1. Start: After Previous
2. Delay: 0.5 seconds
3. Speed: 39 seconds
4. Repeat: none
5. No rewind
6. No Triggers
E. Text Animation:
1. Group Text: As one object
F. Exit: Fade, Very Fast
3. Text box “Eases In†â€Welcome to Iraqâ€
4. That fades out, the map of Iraq follows and about five seconds later the
presentation automatically transition to Slide 2.
The problem I’m having is with the site manager’s message. I would like to
get the effect used in the opening scene of the “Star Wars†movies; you know,
how the text is sort of laid back and is fed back into the screen. And
actually I can’t tell you what combinations I have tried, because there have
been so many and haven’t been able to hit on the right one.
Is there anyone out there that may be able to give me a hand?
