    Hello all!
    Thank you, Creativecow, for your existing!
    I just started to learn c4d.
    I want to create gradually appear lines effect, like while drawing. Animation of the movement of these parts ready (attached footage). To separate my original scanned image, I used PLA – point level animation. Which method the most suitable?

    You can use Sketch and Toon to animate “drawn” strokes generated from geometry – but based on your animation I’m not sure if you have any geometry other than planes. Are those images on planes?
    PLA animation is really only for animating points on a mesh. Its shortcoming is that it cant ease in or out at the end of the movement (you must use nulls tied to each point with xpresso and then animate the nulls instead with keyframes to over come this).
