    Since you are using markers, you would not need to loop every frame, just every marker. You can use the number of markers that you have passed as the loop end number and the current iteration in the loop as the randomSeed, adding the rotations up inside the loop.

  • To keep something parented from rotating, subtract the parent’s rotation from the child object’s rotation.

  • I would not go the complicated way of first moving the camera and then reversing everything. Just move everything but the camera. Link the arm to the non-moving camera and the bear to it, then the position of the background objects to the bear. Done.

  • “Squash and stretch”. The easiest way is to scale along one axis. To get the same look as in that still image, you would use a fat stroke with round caps.

  • How about resetting the anchor points to the layer centers, using a null object at the center, parenting everything to it, then using an expression to keep the original scale in the individual objects while scaling the null?

  • Trapcode Form and Stardust and just about the only plugins that can do strings within AE, and neither of them could give you that result, so I would say you’ll have to look into Cinema 4D for something that advanced. Along these lines except with an image source for color and camera tracking for placement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VtdFp9XdOjM

  • The first debug step would be to see if there’s anything on the top layer by turning off the visibility on the bottom one.

  • Original 2.5K cinema camera shold be fine plugged in and turned on all day. I would not keep the BMPCC on all day. It already heats up pretty good in 20 minutes of recording use. I’ve recorded about 45 minutes in one go at max with the pocket.

    Not having had either connected to a monitor, I don’t know about the latency issues for sure, but I don’t see why there should be any noticable latency.

    Neither camera is particularly good for low-light conditions, with native ISO at 800. Only with a special lens (F1.4), I’ve managed to get the pocket to come out decent in low light.

    The new BMPCC 4K is a much better option for low light with dual native ISO.

  • This will be next to impossible to solve without seeing how you have set up your comp.

  • Hi Alex,

    This is a very complicated expression with cumulative loops and multiple if situations. I could figure it out in theory but writing the expression turned out to be too complex for my liking at this time.

    I would suggest doing the time remapping manually. If you put the camera position keyframes exactly one second apart, it will be an easy task to do the time remapping as each consecutive word will be at the next second mark.
