I made this gif using Blender after being inspired by a recent trip through a thread.
I did make a few different versions that I’m gonna use the hell out of lol

you added text to a video in blender? how does that work, I thought blender was mainly for 3d stuff
Blender is one of the best 2d animation software according to a lot of people
Blender has a really capable video editor
The text is just a standard element added in that and then hand tracked and keyframed because motion tracking was failing me (super low res noisy footage)
Blender has a lot of cool things in it: 3D modeling, 2D animation, 3D sculpting, story boarding, VFX tools, video editing, and probably more that I’m forgetting
Hell I use it more as a video editor than as a 3D modeling tool lol
This looks like better motion tracking than kden
Hearing that makes me pretty happy
Blender’s motion tracking typically works really well but for this footage I did it by hand adding key frames every few frames based on the amount of movement I was seeing
It’s unironically pretty fun to do
Yeah I’ve been using kden because it’s editing features have a lot of nice to haves, but getting smooth tracking is just always too tedious. The whole transform editing frame work sucks donky balls.
I used to animate 2d stuff in blender by just adding emissive textures to planes and using an orthogonal camera. This was back before the video editor was improved.
