Activity Forums Adobe After Effects Expanding circles

    Posted by Adam Goddard on July 13, 2017 at 7:57 am

    Hello
    Can someone please, please advise on how I can create smooth expanding circular lines for an animated logo. I started using ‘Radio Waves’ effect in After effects but it doesn’t have settings that make the circles start thin then get thicker as it animates out … this is as far as I got with ‘Radio Waves’ effect :-(.

    This is this the Illustrator artwork I want to animate. I’m guessing it would be a job for a particle plugin, but I do not know where to start… please help.

    If there is a way to do this that would be fantastic to know. Thank you so much.

    It does let you adjust the size of the rings over time. Under stroke, mess with the Start Width and End Width.
