    Hi everybody … I am starting a production which we will insert some images ( vector drawings, photos and some other kind of images ) and we would like to make an effect that is used in a video we found in this link : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgmTfPzLl4E

    Is it a behavior as the ones used on Motion or plugins used on FCP ?

    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Which effect are you talking about. Can you give us the time in the video that it occurs at?

    It practicaly occurs all over the video. You can see it beggining at 00:43 . I’m talking about the blinking / shaking and little distortion of the drawings.

    Got it. Check out the Wriggle behavior. Go to Add Behavior, Parameter, Wriggle. Change the Apply To section to: Transform, Position. Drop the Amount to about 4 and you will get a nice jerk in the objects movement. You can do the same for the Opacity but I think you will like the Randomize option better. Go to Add Behavior, Parameter, Randomize. Change the Apply To section to:Object, Opacity. This should get you started. Mess around with the settings and other Parameter Behaviors if you like. Best of luck and hope this helps.
