How did Steve Jobs do this in his Keynote presentation?

[MrDexx]

Hey All,

I'm trying to find the text effect that Jobs used in his recent keynote where the text dropped in from the top of the screen and created a quick poof of smoke when it "hit" the bottom.

Does anyone know if this is a standard text effect (I tried them all and I can't get the cloud effect) or how he did that?

Thanks!

That animation is only available to Steve Jobs himself.

It was an effect he started using a couple of Keynotes ago, and the first time he used it there was quite alot of interest in it, with the general conclusion being he using the latest version of it, as in, one that isn't out yet. Keynote was always designed for him to use to make these presentations, so it's only right he gets to use the special bits first!

Generally that's what happens. You see a new Keynote effect in his keynote and they release it in the next version of iWork.

And it would never be. Maybe it will be in the next iWork version?
