Press & reviews of Text Anarchy.

DV magazine, DV.com

From a round-up of text tools in the March 2004 article 'Techniques for Moving Type', by Trish Meyer.

"Don't pigeonhole Text Matrix as a plug-in that replicates The Matrix title sequence. It's capable of streaming text from any direction or center point, with either a smooth or Snap-to-Grid behavior. The streams can conform to Path presets such as Spiral, Wave, Infinity, or a user-set mask shape."

Computer Arts

From a December 2003 article in Computer Arts.

"Working with text is an important but often overlooked aspect of video editing and compositing, and these... filters provide some original and pro effects to video and animations... Try animating text that trails off into space or flows down a drain, and other psuedo-3D effects, without multiple layers or keyframing."

Kenstone.net

From an April 2003 review on the Ken Stone Index, by Ned Soltz.

"I am amazed at the number of controls that the plug-in provides and the complexity of effects that it can create... At first glance, Text Anarchy 2 represents an amazing collection of text effects with more possible adjustments than any creative professional would ever want. The documentation is remarkably extensive and well written. The plug-in is basic enough that a user can become productive immediately... This one is a must have."

Spectrum

From an August 2003 review of Digital Anarchy products, by David Duberman.

"Text Anarchy is itself a whole world of effects, comprising eight different plug-ins... Cool Text [is] essentially a powerful plug-in for animated titles... The remaining Text Anarchy effects are perhaps a bit more mundane, if no less useful."

NE Film

From an August 2001 review on the NEFilm website, by Peter Bohush. [NOTE: Refers to Text Anarchy 1.0.].

"If you need to create hip text effects, such as those in "The Matrix" or on The Weather Channel (nothing hipper than that), Digital Anarchy’s Elements of Anarchy: Text is for you. Designed to make the random text elements used in backgrounds of commercials and films, Elements of Anarchy: Text provides the quickest way to create and control these text elements. Although you can use keyframes for precise control, the three effects have numerous settings so the user doesn’t need to set hundreds of keyframes."
