  Trapcode Form. Need advice to make seamless/smooth animation

  Posted by Emil Dahl on August 31, 2020 at 5:47 pm

  Hi!

  I am currently working on an animation in Red Giants Trapcode Form plugin and I’m having trouble getting a smooth animation without bad looking “stops”.

  I primarily believe it’s a keyframes/easing problem, but I can’t pindown exactly where the problem is. It’s possible that it’s a technique I don’t know of or an expression that can solve my problems.

  The project is very light so I can send it easily – I believe its possible to see the animation even without having bought the plugin you just get a watermark.

  The “design” and duration of the animation needs to stay around +/- 10% of what I currently have.

  Project File:

  I hope someone can help ☺

  Kind regards

  Dear Emil
  Thanks for your Post on the CreativeCow Forum!

  As I am not very good with expressions and I had no clue how to make the viodeo smoother, I downloaded the project file you provided and changed the Easings in Comp 7.
  I hope that was the right comp.

  Anyways, here is your Project back as a zip:

  And also I have rendered it out once so you could see it, here is the vimeo link:

  Thanks a lot for the try! I still want the start and other parts smoothed some more so I will take a look at your easings and see if I can learn something to fix the start especially.

  And research some expressions to see if they can make it better
