Kinetic typography has recently emerged as a technology to enhance text with speech-like expressiveness. In this paper we describe a framework for an effective user interface of a kinetic typography-enabled messaging application. It supports the user creating a dynamic text that is easy to read, has a coherent appearance and reflects the user's communicative intentions. Our prototype uses automated phrasing and accentuation to enhance readability. The overall design is based on a visual framework, which allows for a wide range of distinct emotions and is still visually coherent at the same time. With this framework the user can concentrate on generating a text that is in accordance with his intentions by specifying a suitable animation for the desired emotion and emphasizing words that are important for him.
