Masked rise animation

Masked rise reveals letters as they move upward through an invisible baseline. The hidden portion stays clipped until it crosses that line, giving the entrance a clean edge. A short stagger lets the word build progressively. This library effect suits restrained product titles, captions, and section headings. Keep enough room above the baseline for the finished text, and use the preview to judge its rhythm.
