I suppose it could be done via Expressions, but Plexus seems to be the standard solution for complex line/shape attachment techniques:
That said, there are some other scripts which are less expensive, but not as robust – here’s a free one from MotionBoutique, the genius behind Newton:

It looks as if it may have been done in a 3D package, but you could do it in AE with Vector “ribbons”, each a separate 3D layer. Since the animation of each ribbon is pretty much identical, you could create the animation using the first vector ribbon, then duplicate it and change the colors, make all of the layers 3D Layers, then Precomp them, and add a Camera. And, of course, since the layers are flying past the camera in the frame, you would want to make your ribbon layers multiples of the final frame width.
This might also be something you could do with Form, MIR, or Particular, but you don’t say whether you have any of these, or what version of AE you intend to use.

Hi Rachel –
It could be a combination of a preset and and a script such as Ease and Wizz:
https://aescripts.com/ease-and-wizz/
You could use the preset which sort of drifts the text in, and in some cases sizes it in, with the “bounce” reaction as it hits. You could do all of this from scratch, using a Text Animator and Keyframes, but it would take a bit longer. The trick there would be to put in the time, then save the Effects and Keyframes as a preset, then it’s just a matter of drag and drop your preset.

I’m going to link you to an older post, but it seems that it’s a matter of making sure that your Premiere Pro project matches the specs of your footage. You can test this by just dragging a clip to the New Sequence icon at the bottom of the Project Panel, and see how it plays back then:

It seems as if the prevailing opinion among the “pros” is that, yes, some cards will read and write between camera brands, but that you should always format each card in the camera you intend you use before each shoot. Notice that they say “format” rather than “erase all images”.
Now I use Magic Lantern in my T2i, so I sometimes break the rules – but, that said, the T2i is my only camera. Here’s a nice, quick rundown on some rules for extending the life of your memory cards:

I think that you’ll get better answers if you post some of the specs – OS version, multiple or single hard drives, drive space, PPro cache settings. My first thought would be that you might only have one hard drive, and that the PPro cache filled things up. Just a guess, not knowing any details.

Hi Matt –
Sorry to bury you in information, but I’m working my way through this, know very little JavaScript. I did manage to find a link to the IPTC Schema that this script is drawing upon. It would be possible to put the information you want your client to have, and fool the IPTC Schema into providing different data. You’d just have to know where you’re planning to put the data – for example, in the Description field, you could put the TimeCode, Shoot Location, etc..
Anyway, here’s the link to the IPTC spec:

Good ideas Ivan –
Here’s a decent timeline from 1840 to 1850 that might give you some pivotal events as well:

Of course, I don’t know where your location is, so they might not be pertinent to your locale. And another good one:

I just ran a test on the script – anyone who wants to test, or who knows JavaScript and might want to tweak it –
Open Bridge, in Preferences, show location of Startup Scripts – put the Script in that folder.
When you restart Bridge, you can select multiple files, and when you right click, you’ll see the Script listed at the bottom of the rollout.
Click it, and you’ll be presented with a menu – make sure that you provide a folder name, provide a filename with lowercase “csv” file extension, and then click the boxes you want exported. It’s very basic, and all I got to export was the full path. I’ll have to explore where it’s taking the Metadata from.
My Javascripting capabilities are basically nill, so if anyone wants to jump on this, the link to the script is above. I’m going to play around in my spare time.

I just found a script for Bridge which claims to export to CSV (compatible with Excel) format. I haven’t tried it yet, but here’s the link:
