Hi

//begin expression
maxDisplacement = 500;
maxDistance = 700;
//–
cameraPos = thisComp.activeCamera.position;
thisPos = position;
vec = cameraPos – thisPos;
distance = length( vec );
dispAmt = ease(distance , 0 , maxDistance, maxDisplacement , 0);
normalizedVec = normalize( [vec[0] , vec[1]] );
position – (normalizedVec * dispAmt)//end expression

The above expression gives me a division error on line 11

Hi Filip

thank you

Hi
Filip can you give me some explanation on this line of code
“for (t=0; t<=time; t+=f) {"

is it a looping structure?What does it do?

Hi

Dan,would you mind explaining the “to fixed” function .
The above expression also works without this function.

hi
[Bequinta] “BUT you have to buy Film Magic Pro in order to get the tutorial. It comes free with it.”

No, no longer.I’ve just bought it but it’s not included anymore.

Hi

value + Math.floor(time)*6 // for the second hand

hi

create a mask that’s (40px i.e)smaller than your video footage.Center the mask.
Now crank the Mask Expansion value up.

Hi

[Dan Ebberts] “Then what would you want to do with that info?”

I think it might be very useful to know when creating Video walls for example.
Well,it’s not the best example as you can make out the dimension of each video pretty easily without the script.

Hi Filip

thank you very much for your detailed explanation.I really appreciate it!!
I’ll give it a try 🙂

Hi

great expressions guys!!

I also would like to add a sound effect to this animation.
Everything is build up and i’ve also got an appropriate audio file.

A Target layer’s opacity is driven by Filip’s great expression.
What i want to achieve now is,whenever the target’s opacity is 90% i want the audio layer to be enabled.

I applied this expression to the Audio layer’s Audio level:

driver=thisComp.layer(“Target”).opacity;
if(driver=90){
thisLayer.enabled
}else{
0
}

However,it gives me a 2 dimensional error message,why? As both options only have one dimension.
