  • Two posts before lunch? expression question

    Here’s the scene:

    Layer 1: Lensflare with unmult (720*486)
    Layer 2: 3d Cam
    Layer 3: 3d Picture layer w/pointer control effect (1500*3000ish)

    I’m trying to figure out how to animate the camera, and have the lensflairs locations point to match up with the picture layer’s point expression WITHIN the lenseflair comp.

    An expression like this for the flare center should do it:

    L = thisComp.layer(“Picture Layer”);
    L.toComp(L.effect(“Point Control”)(“Point”))
