  • 3D Layer affected by anothers speed and collision?

    I’m new to expressions.. All I’ve ever really done is used wiggle or the pick whip or something.
    What I’m wondering how to do (without all the keyframing and stuff) is this:

    I have 2 3D Layers. One is my Logo – the other is a little Illustration that sits on the bottom right of the logo.
    Well, what I want to do is this: have the little illustration zoom in from the cameras position and SLAM into the logo, and when the illustration 3d layer HITS the logo, I want both of them to rotate/tilt back, maybe wobble for a split second, and return to normal position.

    Get what I mean?
    I can probably do this pretty easy with keyframes, but I need to learn to do expressions and stuff, plus it’s a lot easier to tie expressions together so when one thing changes, everything else comes with it.
    Any help would be great! Thanks 🙂

    Well, I suppose I could just pick whip the Y rotations to a slider and just animate the slider amount.
