Using fireworks to make a font mask animation is a very easy thing, below we may wish to try together.
Finish effect
1. Select an image as the underlying animation of the mask font.
2, the previous step of the map copy/paste 2 times, and then merge 3 pictures, which will make the animation more coherent.
3, select the picture, and then select from the menu: Insert--convert to Symbol, or press F8, and then select animation to define it as an animation. Just fill in the frames number of frames in the animation parameter settings, and we'll fill in the frames 10.
4. Select the red point that the arrow refers to and drag to the right.
5, after dragging, adjust the position so that the last frame of the pattern and the first frame position is the same.
6, in the Frames panel to select the first frame, back to the first frame to continue the following steps.
7, create a new layer, and then enter text.
8, at the same time selected patterns and text, in the menu selection: Modify--mask--group as Mask.
9, selected animation, then in the Layers panel, click on the arrow in the diagram to cancel the relationship between the camera, then select the font, select the font after the object panel will appear two options, select Path Outline (arrow), select the layers panel after the restoration of the relationship between the mask.
10, now shade text animation done, click Play to see it! You can get a better result by sorting out the location and playback speed.
