Then, I realized that simply displaying the lyrics would be too monotonous, so I added stars and made them move along with the appearance of the lyrics. Fig1.1The animated lyrics of the first line When I was doing the second and third lines of the lyrics, I decided to use a different way of presenting the lyrics. I made the lyrics appear diagonally and also changed their size. The most important thing is that I added a slow movement to the lyrics. For this, I added an extra keyframe.
