What I'm looking for is just to have a black background and a word on top of it in white. then break the word to 2 parts, make one part disappear with a fade effect.. some of the free/open source programs don't even have a text tool so it's a must for me.. I've tried Pencil2D, Tupi, Synfig. out of all these Synfig is the closest to what I need but working in it is not fluid. I had a hard time dealing with the text and the animation timeline.

If anyone knows a good program for that I'll be happy to know..
it has to be:
1. Free
2. Have a timeline
3. Have a text tool.
4. Export as video.

Thank you very much! :)

The best tool I've found for what I was looking for was called "Express Animate" by NCH software which is also free, I got to it from Alin's suggestion here in this thread.

Well, there is a program I have used in the past, it was called VideoPad Video Editor from NCH Software, it has all the free features you need:


Add a bank clip
Add new text clip to project
Transitions to change from one text clip (the one with the full word) to another (the one with the word cut in half)
Plus it has a very simple timeline


It's pretty easy to use, it's the easiest I have ever used.
