Text Match Cut

Create Text Match Cut Animations

The Text Match Cut effect is a classic filmmaking technique often seen in documentaries, investigative reports, and movie titles. It draws the viewer's eye to a specific word or phrase on a page, then uses a camera move (zoom or cut) to transition or emphasize the point.

Why use this tool?

Creating this effect in editing software like Premiere Pro or After Effects requires setting up high-resolution textures, animating a camera, adding motion blur, and simulating camera shake. This tool does it all instantly in your browser.

Perfect for Social Media

Grab attention on TikTok, Reels, or YouTube Shorts by highlighting key quotes or news headlines. The organic "handheld" camera shake adds a layer of realism that keeps viewers engaged.
