    Is it possible to apply a motion sketch path/keyframes to a Knoll flare effect?

    I have several knoll flares on a layer. I’d like to animate them at a certain point in the timeline. I’d like them to travel in independent paths and then meet in the center of frame. I’ve tried pasting motion sketch keyframes into “Light Source Location” of the flare effect box, but the keyframes end up in the layer’s “Position.”

    Thanks!

    Make sure you select the Light Source Position parameter in the left column of the timeline before you hit paste – it should work.

    An alternative is to motion sketch onto a Null layer, and then pickwhip an expression that links the Lens Flare location to the Null position.
