Here's a YouTube short in which 2 robotic arms write a glowing text. The 2 robotic arms are rendered with the robotic arm layer and animated with inverse kinematics.
BixPack 43
The missing model and textures are part of BixPack 43. Point BluffTitler to these files when it asks for them:
outerspace-software.com...
Save the show afterwards to prevent you have to do that every time.
Glow
Glow works great with sketches. Select the sketch layer, choose LAYER > ACTIVE LAYER PROPERTIES... and mark the GLOW checkbox.
VJ Dialog
To pulsate the glow I have used the VJ dialog to oscillate the GLOW INTENSITY prop of the camera layer:
outerspace-software.com...
Text
To change the text, choose EDIT > CHANGE ALL TEXTURES... and replace Bix20.png by your own transparent PNG. Any picture can be used, not just text.
Robotic arm layer
More info about the robotic arm layer:

YouTube Short
The video is uploaded in portrait format to make it look good on phones.
Choose FILE > SET SHOW RESOLUTION... to switch to a landscape to make it look good on desktops.

Youtube views stay a mistery for me. About Robotic Arms do you plan to add the possibility to add a container to arm joints ? Thank you.

Vincent, when your attach a container layer to a robotic arm layer, it is attached to the tip of the arm.
BixPack 43 heavily uses this feature:

Mi piace molto per due motivi:
1) E' uno spettacolo molto pulito, sembra semplice ma è stato eseguito con varie tecniche ed effetti.
2) Ritornare al passato ( BixPack 43 ) fà si che non si dimentichino tutte le capacità di BT

Michiel,
Thnx or sharing this stylish show.
Your question about the Youtube views. Over time it will be more. Maybe we should try to go with a great an influential site.
I'll try something out.

chaver, 2 years ago
Very nice. And thanks for the download.

Having some fun with your show.

Thank you all!
Realize that you can easily select another robotic arm by choosing EDIT > CHANGE ALL MODELS... The arms of BixPack 43 are normalized so they all work fine.
And tracing another picture is easy by choosing EDIT > CHANGE ALL TEXTURES...
