  • Animating a whole bunch of strokes?

    Posted by Martin Löfqvist on July 22, 2007 at 12:58 am

    Hi everyone!

    I’m looking for a nifty way to animate a whole bunch of strokes all connected to one shape. I did a test with both the stroke filter (wich only allows stroke sizes up to 50 px) and the new cs3 vector shape stroke, wich might work but I couldn’t get it really as I wanted.

    The ideal would be the same way as the blend tool in illustrator is working. I uploaded an example of what I’m talking about right here:

    Any input would be great!
    Thnx

    Depending on the exact final look you trying to acheive, Trapcode’s 3D stroke is probably your best bet. It doesn’t do a blend between shapes like Illustrator, but you can use the repeater to duplicate the stroke multiple times and offset them in 3D space to get a similar effect.
