Dotted Stroke (With Growing Dots!)
Hello! I would like to create a stroke, but on the end of the stroke I would like the dots to be growing individually (although, very quickly.) The idea is an Aboriginal style dot-painting.
I have searched high and low and cannot find an answer – luckily I have a couple of examples to show
TEST 1 – Is just a tapered stroke that eventually reveals all the dots, but they don’t grow organically like I want them to
TEST 2 – Each circle is its own growing comp and has been placed individually along the path then the layers are offset.. In other words, a lot of manual work.
I know Trapcode must have a way to reveal these properly, similar to the tutorial in this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMOHNfAoHJw
Any pointers would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Alex

I tried to recreate using a Shape Layer.

Was this of any use?

Hi Scott,
Sorry I have been away.
Yes, this was great, thank you. I ended up actually masking all the dots on with a simple stroke – not the same effect that I would have liked (So basically, its a stroke that reveals all the dots which achieves more of a fade-on rather than each dot quickly growing on) but I had let the Client know that one method would take a lot longer than the other, so they opted for a simpler option.
Thanks again.
