Unveil wipes your word up from behind a bright moving edge, the line of light travelling ahead of the text and leaving it revealed in its wake — the keynote-stage title reveal.
What Unveil is good for

How this animation is built
uv-wipe moves a mask edge upward across the letterforms while uv-edge runs the bright line just ahead of it. Because the light leads the mask rather than sitting on it, the word appears to be uncovered by the light rather than simply fading up.
Tips for Unveil
One line of text. This is a title reveal, not a paragraph animation.
It ends completely static, which makes it a clean base for other elements.
Unveil questions
How is this different from Ascend?
Unveil uncovers a word that is already in position, using a moving mask. Ascend physically lifts the letters up from behind a rule that draws itself.
