I don't know exactly what you mean. A "word" is also text. So I cannot see the problem. What you can do:
a) use more than one title. A title is actually a piece of video so you can put a title on video tracks.
b) create a picture with your "word" on it and save it as PNG with transparent background. You can put as many of these PNG to your timeline, let them fade in and out and do PiP effects.

These have examples of what I am looking for. Templates I can change the words. As I said I am not creative so I am looking for templates that have a look and feel that will work for me.

The YouTube presentation link was done with powerpoint. You need to go back and edit your response as you quoted Hatti and put your reply inside the quotes reserved for him causing the text formatting error on the threads of this post. Your reply needs to be outside Hatti's quote if you choose Reply instead of Reply to this topic.

This link should work and demonstrates the kind of templates I am looking for:
Link to word animation video

It shows a variety of ways to reveal words.

Hi strifemit -

About your question:

The YouTube videos you linked are just made with a series of titles one after the other, with each title formatted slightly differently. It would be pointless creating a series of templates for that without knowing exactly what you wanted.

The other words animation video is just that - animation! In PDR, even though you could make slides like that, creating templates would be pointless because each animation is indiviual & appropriate only to that word. Making something like that "without a creative bone in your body" would be a bit challenging!

Quote: I want some examples of templates that have words. Maybe some something that has the same word popping up all over the place or something that several different words pop up all over the place.

That's a different thing than anything in the videos you linked.

Way back in (about) PDR9, I made this little example of kinetic typography. Doing that's a bit simpler in PDR16 because you can have multiple text tracks in one title.

Why not post a screen shot of the kind of thing you'd like to do?

Hi Tony

Thanks

Now I have the words Kinetic Typography which has lots of responses on Google. Unfortunetely nothing recent for PowerDirector although they do generate some ideas.

I was thinking one or two templates which I can change the words and then lay them over each other. I can't give an example because I don't know specifically. I used one title on the intro to a video I put up on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6t0nvzCeoKg

I am looking for more options that I could use. I just look at them and know if I like it or not.

Hi Lance -

Here are a couple of templates that might help get you started...

Kinetic Type 1

Kinetic Type 2

These templates use multiple tracks in each title. Each track can be modified in any way or removed.

To do real animation as shown in the video you linked, you'd need to combine titles with graphics in PiP Designer.
