Reliable preview

What you see is what you export

Fonts, colors, and motion match the live preview. Use the timeline controls to pause, loop, or restart while you tweak content.

What this tool does

Generate smooth scrolling text for tickers, credits, marquees, and vertical announcements. Swap between horizontal, vertical, and tilted perspective modes; change fonts, colors, and backgrounds; and preview the exact timing before exporting.

How to use

  1. Enter your text or split it into segments for multi-block credits.
  2. Select direction, mode (horizontal, vertical, tilted), and tweak speed until the estimated duration fits.
  3. Pick fonts, sizes, colors, and background (solid or transparent).
  4. Preview, pause, and restart to confirm the exact travel path.
  5. Export as GIF, WebM video, or copy the web embed code.

Tips for best results

  • Use segments for long credit rolls so you can reorder blocks independently.
  • Keep line height comfortable in vertical/tilted modes to avoid cramped text.
  • Transparent backgrounds work well for overlays; solid backgrounds help GIFs compress smaller.
  • Adjust speed to hit a target duration—looping previews help match video intros or outros.
