    problem with animating text layer

    Posted by Derrick on April 4, 2008 at 9:02 am

    Hi there

    help would be appreciated a lot please.

    I’ve got a comp where I’m animating a logo to zoom in passed the camera (from the front), and then slowly becoming bigger.

    I’m animating the Z Position property of the Logo Comp to do this, but it’s not working right.

    https://www.malagold.co.za/AE.jpg – VISUAL timeline to see problem
    https://www.malagold.co.za/problem.mp4 – Movie sample of problem. After the flash, it should grow bigger not smaller first. the keyframe is lined up with the flash.

    After the second keyframe which should be the stop point before getting closer, it goes backwards for a couple of frame before coming forward.

    thanks, I’ll appreciate the help!

    Sounds like a simple fix.

    Select your keyframes and right-click to select Keyframe Interpolation.

    Change Spatial Interpolation to Linear and you’re done.

    Hope that helps,
    Ben
