ProDAD Heroglyph

Heroglyph is a titling program that lets you do animated 2D and 3D titles easily. It has quite a large variety of tools as well - not just for animating text but also drawing paths and even making video walls. Do you want to draw a route on a map? There is a tool for just this - you can even add an arrow or a little car at the start. Do you want to have some words drawn on screen and appear as if written - again Heroglyph has a tool for just this. Or do you want to have each letter of each word arrive and jump out at you as they do - again easy to do with Heroglyph.

Heroglyph plugs into Adobe Premiere 6.5, Adobe Premiere Pro 1, 1.5, 2 and CS3, as well as all variations of Premiere Elements. It also works in Avid Liquid 7, Avid Xpress Pro 5 and Media Composer 2, and Canopus Edius 3.x & 4.x. You can see more information on the ProDad Website.

Interestingly when plugged into Edius or Premiere it appears just like the other native titling programs - so in Edius you add it to the title track as you would with Title Motion Pro or Quick Titler, and you can even choose it as the default title program so it appears every time you press the T button!

There are two versions of Heroglyph - the full version and Heroglyph Rapid. The Rapid version is the same as the full but with less control and animation capabilities.
