Move an object along the x axis over a designated number of frames
Hi there.
I’m a bit stuck with the solution for this. I have a number of objects on a grid and want to move them tighter together as I pull the camera back.
I’m hoping some kind of expression might do the trick.
I need to move an object along the x axis for say 100px over a period of 25 frames.
I’ve got this so far but unfortunately this creates continuous movement.
Any help as always is much appreciated.
Cheers
Mike
x = (time / thisComp.frameDuration) * 10;value + [x, 0]

Something like this:
tStart = 1; // start move at 1 sec.
numFrames = 25; //move for 25 frames
dist = 100; //move 100 pixels
x = linear(time,tStart,tStart+framesToTime(numFrames),0,100)
value + [x,0]Dan

Dan, I mean this with the absolute utmost respect, you are a freak with this stuff. Thanks so much.
Thanks so much.
I don’t know if this next question is pushing the friendship, but is it possible to ease with expressions?
Thanks again Dan 🙂 🙂 🙂

In the previous example, just change “linear” to “ease” (or “easeIn” or “easeOut”). See the Interpolation Methods section in the expressions chapter of AE Help.

Ah yes of course, shouldn’t have missed that. Thanks again Dan. It works a treat
