Follow the leader, till a point, then change order
I’ve tried a bunch of things, but I’m stuck on what to really do…
I have a series of images that will drop into the viewing frame and be located at different z depths. The image at the farthest z depth will fall first with the final image falling closest to the camera. The camera view point will allow all of the images to be seen as they fall. Once all the images are showing, the image closest to the camera will turn and face the camera, zoom/pan as necessary and then the opacity will drop to zero. The rest of the images will follow suit and follow the leader.
I’ve got the following on the “Y position”
thisComp.layer(thisLayer, 1).position.valueAtTime(time -thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).effect(“delay”)(“Slider”)) [1]
and the following on the “Z position”
thisComp.layer(thisLayer, 1).position[2]-thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”)
All that get’s me is the first part of the motion, but I stumped on the second part. Any insight you guys might be able to give would be greatly appreciated. Now if you have a CATIA question, I might be able to help you out in return… Hey, that would be the only way I could pay this debt. Many thanks.
