scaling a photo without an increase in speed
I’m sure there must be an easy way to do this – I have a bunch of photo in AE that all fade into each other. Some of the photos scale down and change position when they come into view. Thing is, as these photos scale down it looks as if they’re speeding up. I want them to have a consistent speed during the whole scaling-down process.
Is there an easy way to do this without having to tweek the velocity:scale every time?
Hopefully this makes sense. Thanks.

Instead of using scale to re-size them, use Basic3D. When using scale, objects appear to change speed as they move towards or away from the camera. Using Basic3D will fix that.

That works perfectly. Thanks tons Sean!

Sean’s given you a good solution, but just so’s we can be well rounded in our explanations on the COW:
AE has a keyframe assistant called exponential scale that would probably also help you. Just select your two scale keyframes and right-click (or do your mac equivilant) and find the exponential scale.
Basic 3d is probably easier, but nevermind.
