    Thanks for getting back to me with this suggestion.
    I ended up making it work with the Write-On effect.

    I very much appreciate your help!

    Hi Cassius,

    Thanks so much the Write-on effect worked!

    My only issue now is that I need the px size to be larger than 200, it seems to cap it at that size.
    I’m sure I can figure that out though.

    Thanks for the suggestion, much appreciated.

    Gabriel

    Hi Tomas,

    Yeah its a null object that follows the path set by the motion tracker. The line is animated by linking it to CC particle.
    As described in the original post though, this means that when I increase the size of the particles to make the line bigger, it becomes clear it isn’t a solid line.

    If you have another suggestion I’d love to try it.

    I should note I’m happy to start from scratch.

    Thanks,

    Gabe

    Hi Graham,

    Thanks for the detailed instructions. I’m pretty sure that this is the method I used to animate the line in the sample video I linked in the original post. The problem being is that when I increase the particle sizes to make the line bigger it becomes obvious that the line is made up of particles rather than being a single, solid line.

    I’ll have another go and follow your instructions and let you know if the same thing happens or not.

    Thanks,

    Gabriel
