    Hello, I am trying to make an animation where the camera circles around a pitri dish that has growing bacteria in it. I have the dish, camera animated, and bacteria. The only thing I cant figure out is how to make the colonies appear as the animation goes. Is there any way that I can say key frame the cloner object with the bacteria in it at 0 for frame 0 and then have it grow over time? If there are any videos or tutorials that are out there it would be great to see. Thanks.

    Sure, you can keyframe the clone count as you can almost every parameter in Cinema. Just Ctrl + Click on the small circle to the left of the parameter name. It will turn red, indicating that there’s a keyframe on the parameter.
