Trapcode Echospace might be what you´re looking for:

https://www.trapcode.com/products_echospace.html

Also there are some pretty good tutorials about that technic around the web that might be your starting point:

https://www.videocopilot.net/tutorials/3d_offset/

And some posts here on the cow as well. Even if you have to hit CTRL+D some times you can distribute them in a faster better easier way then doing it manually one by one.

Hope it helps.

Cheers.

there is a plugin called echo space (trapcode.com) that can make this easier, but you can also use a simple expression to create an offset based on the index of the layer (the layer’s order in the comp). then it’s just a matter of duplicating the layer 75 times…

an expression like this in the position expression field would offset the layer 300 pixels down:

value + [0,(-300*index)]

if that was on the first layer, you could then duplicate that layer and each duplicate would have a y offset of -300 pixels…

if you’re good with java script, you could write a script that could be applied to a layer with parameters for how many duplicates to generate and how effect various layer properties… but that would take far longer for me than hitting command-d (mac) 75 times….
