  • Struggling/resisting scale expression?

    Posted by David Cabestany on April 28, 2017 at 4:32 pm

    I need to scale up an object but make it look as if it’s struggling to grow, much like something trying to get out of a box, at first there will be some resistance but eventually the box will subside and the object is free to grow.

    I have no clue as to how to create those first stages when the object attempts to scale up but something prevents it briefly.

    Does that make sense?

    Hi,

    You could add a varying wiggle effect to your scale property.
    There are a few tutorials out there to do that ????

    Cheers !

    Hey Steve,

    Thanks but that’s not what I’m looking for, I need more like a combination of a bounce effect with a stop in between steps, if that makes sense.

    Thanks,
    D.

    Hi David,

    Sorry, I don’t really understand what you’re looking for… Do you maybe have an example you can share ?

    Cheers !
