    Not quite sure what you mean when you say

    The comps themselves don’t procedurally shift over time. I’ll still have
    to manually shift every layer to the modified transform properties

    Can you explain what you want them to do?

    Hi Stephen,

    Referring to my project, let’s say that my in-animation is 10 frames, stay is 10 frames, and out-animation is 10 frames. Now, I have duplicated the comp and placed it at the out-animation of the previous comp so that when the first comp animates-out, my second comp animaties-in. Now, when I modify the transform properties on the null, their speeds will change procedurally, but the comp placement of the second comp does not change. I still have to shift the placement of the second comp to match the out-animation of the first comp.
