Use sequences and grouped frames in Anitalk

Keep a phrase together while an emoji changes.

Written By Enrique Bonansea

Parentheses and braces create sequences. Square brackets group content into a frame.

Try this example

{[HELLO (🙂😃)]}

HELLO stays visible while the face alternates between 🙂 and 😃. The square brackets keep the phrase and current emoji together in each frame.

  1. Copy the example into Anitalk.
  2. Preview it before changing anything.
  3. Replace HELLO with your short greeting.
  4. Change the emoji pair and preview again.

The result looks wrong

Check matching brackets and simplify to one changing element. Putting a multi-character word inside a sequence advances its characters instead of necessarily keeping the word together. For mixed languages or joined scripts, keep the phrase fixed and animate a separate symbol until every frame looks right.
