Simple scale expression for zooming in on photos

No global variables, but you can use Slider Controls to control the values. You could just apply a Slider Control to a null layer, pick whip from your expression to the slider to get the syntax right, and then control all your values with the slider.

Score. That’s working well. I created null sliders for all three variable, for end, start, and time. Several small steps forward in comprehension. Thanks.

I’ve been using the following expression to scale down a video clip from it’s in point

startScale = 100; // percent of Scale at start
endScale = 60; // percent of Scale at end
scaleUpTime = 3; // time to scale up from inPoint in seconds

s = ease(time,inPoint,inPoint+scaleUpTime,startScale,endScale);
[s,s]

However is it possible to adapt this so that I can the scale back up to 100% 3 seconds before the out point of the clip.

Thanks in advance,

Jon
