Going through the tutorial and really wanted to do strokes in AE, however the CE color Effect doesn’t seem to exsist? Is there another filter that would work? Any thoughts?

I have Streamers hanging from my dragons bottom jaw that I would like to realistically deform with the jaw movements. Any ideas on how to do that? Each streamer is a separate bitmap.

TIA,

Chris

That’s the typical look of the echo time preset. You need to change the number of echos to more than 1 and the adjust the Echo time setting depending on the length of the comp.

BTW I was so wrong…EchoTime is in Effects/Time…DUH!

This is the correct syntax:

thisComp.layer(index-1).transform.rotation.value_at_time(time-thisComp.layer(“Dragon Control”).effect(“Rotation Control”)(“Slider”))

Thanks for getting me on the right track.

Echo Time in the layer/time menu Your footage must have the motion pre-comped to use this.

Gives me a message stating no property or method named ‘yRotation’

Sorry just found this and it seems to work….

period = .03;
maxStartTime = 1.0;

t = time -2;
if (t > 0){
if (Math.floor(t/period)%2) 0 else 100
}else{
100
}
