    Try using Scribble AND Stroke together to make the effect and Roughen Edges to add some variation.

    1. Clean up the image in photoshop or illustrator. (use single-color vector graphics if possible)

    2. Use the Layer-> AutoTrace: Check the “Apply to new layer” box and select the appropriate channel in the drop down box. (This should generate masks in the shape of your logo/image)

    3. Effect –> Generate –> Stroke: Check “All Masks” and “Stroke Sequentially”

    4. Animate the “Start” and/or “End” values to get the desired effect.

    5. Effect –> Generate –> Scribble: The “Scribble” value should be “All Masks Using Modes”

    5. Animate the “Start” and/or “End” values for the Scribble Effect

    6. Adjust color values as you see fit.

    7. Effect –> Stylize –> Roughen Edges : Adjust as you see fit

    At least that’s the gist of it. Try messing with the values to get the desired effect.

    Hope it helps!
