  Connecting dots

  Posted by Emanuel Cohen on June 14, 2010 at 10:20 pm

  Hey,

  Let’s say I have 10 to 15 dots tracking various points in a video. I want to have lines/strokes connecting these dots together, and keeping them connected following their movements…

  i’ve not tried it as i’m not infront of AE right now, but i would try the Beam effect, and for each end point of the beam, i would use the expression pickwhip to connect to the position values of a track point.
