Each line is scaled and tracked until it sits flush with both edges of the measure, so a two-word line and a five-word line carry wildly different weight.

Frequently asked
What is the Line Mask Reveal animation?
Each line glides up from behind an invisible mask while an accent bar draws underneath. Editorial and bold. It belongs to the Text Animations category on velements, where you edit it in the browser and download it as a finished video file.
What can you customize in Line Mask Reveal?
Every control in the editor, grouped the same way there. Content: text. Typography: font, weight, size, letter spacing, line height and align. Style: background, text color and accent. Layout: aspect ratio. Motion: duration and easing. Each change appears in the live preview straight away, and editing is free.
How long is Line Mask Reveal?
Line Mask Reveal runs 2 seconds by default, and you can set any length up to 15 seconds before you export. It plays once from start to finish, so it drops straight onto a cut or an opening.
Can you download Line Mask Reveal with a transparent background?
Yes. Set the background to Transparent, then export a PNG sequence for Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or Figma: import the first frame as an image sequence and it drops onto a track above your footage with a straight alpha channel. Export WebM with a VP9 alpha channel for the web and for CapCut. MP4 has no alpha channel, so it keeps a solid color or image behind the animation.
Can you use Line Mask Reveal in commercial projects?
Yes. Each download comes with a perpetual commercial license in your name for client work, ads and products, and you may sell the edited clip on stock footage sites. Reselling the preset itself as an editable template is not allowed.

One shared word stays pinned in place while the rest of the line cuts away and reforms around it, so the whole chain reads as a single moving object.
Every letter independently shuffles through different typefaces, weights, sizes and baselines on twos, re-laying out the whole line each step, until the shuffle thins out and the words land on one clean setting.
A sentence keeps one live slot word: as it swaps, the highlight marker stretches to the new word's width, the rest of the line reflows around it and letters the two words share glide to their new place.
A paragraph pours itself into a silhouette, rewrapping and resizing line by line so the type itself becomes the shape, then reveals row by row.
The headline builds word by word with a confident rise while the subtitle settles in underneath.
Two words made of the same letters trade places: each letterform travels to its new position and reshapes on the way, so one phrase becomes the other without a cut.
