Hi

[bembler] “- then the emitter with an expression: thisComp.layer(“Null”).transform.position”

There is an easier way on this one,just create a maske shape keyframe and paste it into the Emitter’s position.Now the light= “Emitter” has got the position data from the path.So no need for the path layer anymore.
Position the camera where you want it to be and parent it to the light Emitter
Example project here https://rapidshare.com/files/5869558/Bembler.zip.html
As for the toworld expression ,it won’t work proberly with this example,sorry.Apparently,it only works with 3d position data.

hi gigamaus 😉

Do you own particular as well?
You could use Particular to create the stroke.Use a light as an Emitter and animate the light’s position.
As for the camera movement,just pickwhip the Poi of the camera with the light’s position.In addition to that add this Expression for the cameras’position> toWorld(thisComp.layer(“Emitter”).transform.position)or
try any other of this Layer Space Transforms expressions.

Hi

[Mylenium] “The only limitation is that you can’t have more than exactly one obscuration layer.”

that’s a very annoying limitation!
