  • expressions for unfolding layers in 3d space

    Posted by Karolina on August 17, 2005 at 5:02 pm

    i need to build a sequence of unfolding squares to create a “house of cards” effect, where new squares unfold out of the older ones in 3d so they create cubes. ideally i should be able to control the direction the layers are unfolding (since it shouldn’t be uniform in all directions).
    i tried working with trapcode’s particular, but it needs to be more structured in 3d, so i moved on to expressions and got stuck. any suggestions?

    Ahem, classical keyframe animation? Shouldn’t be to difficult, since all you need to worry about is properly setting your anchor points. Using expressions seems way off for this kind of project – it takes longer to adjust the formulas before you can get to work. Anyway, you’d have to be more specific about what you are trying to do. Expressions is such a large field.
