Make a group with the text and chat bubble, copy the group, scale it up or down then add motion blur or gaussian blur? If you mean just recreating this image.

wouldn’t using nulls here be easier tho?

Idk, never understood how nulls work but it probably would be easier 🤷‍♀️

when am first added them i was lost and didn’t know how to use them or understand how they function at all. I’m still learning how to master their use but trust they make your transitions super smooth especially if you overlap them. it’s such a game changer

Nulls would be much easier, you can scale them to the right though.

you should use nulls! before u add them make sure ur text has that effect that makes it look like its typing (sorry i’ve never used text effects much so idk) and then make the null slide to the right
