That would be the time remapping part.

“Bleeding” onto the page gave me the idea that you could use a large-scale fractal noise for a “depth” map for lens blur and run that from a large radius to zero. Or use levels to offset the white point of the fractal noise so as to get some parts coming in focus earlier than others.

Unless you’re talking about fitting several lines of text.

It would seem this exacerbates the problem by adding extra offset the rather than evening it out. Any offset in position from a linear motion would add the corresponding amount of time remapping offset rather than removing it. At least that’s what my brain says.

Did you get this sorted out?

Not infrequently you can achieve the same thing easier without expressions. I believe precomping the loop and applying time remapping would do it in this case.

If you prefer an expression-free solution, you can precomp all your particle layers and use a track matte with a gradient ramp to make them fade out where you want.

You can always try the easy way (distance of the cursor from the anchor point of the layer) first and if it works, you don’t need to bother with the more complicated one that takes the layer dimensions into account.
The simple version is really quite simple.

A whole bunch of questions about your setup:
– Are you applying the expression to time remapping?
– How does the camera know where to go? Do you also have keyframes for camera position?
– What is the purpose of the markers? I don’t see what they are needed for, since they’re not controlling the timing of the animation. Are they there to show where the keyframes are?
– Are you looking at having easing between the positions?
– Why not move the words rather than the camera?
– Can this not be done as a 2D comp?
– Does the camera need to move closer and further away from the word based on length?
etc. etc.
Perhaps a couple of screenshots showing what you currently have and what you are trying to accomplish…?
