Please tell me there’s a recording/video of this somewhere?

Since we’re all over the place….

Logos in a grid (one layer) and Card Dance driven by an animated gradient (peppered with a little Noise).

In temporary Internet files, wait until the flv tutorial is fully loaded, then click on the Size column, on top and that will sort the files by size (you might have to click twice, sort small, then large). Copy the large flv and paste into where you want to archive it.

Lots of shine sweeps left to right, but depending on the look a combo of:

1) CC Light Sweep, this alone might do it, or add on…

2) Trapcodes’s Shine or CC Radial Fast Blur (with Center the same a Light Sweep, can be a simple pickwhip expression), along with:

3) A duplicated Text/Logo Layer with an animated rectangular mask on it to focus the Shine/Radial Fast Blur above to that band that sweeps across.

If these aren’t close, gimme a link to what you want.

You’re never going to get 2.5 sec, you can get 2 sec 15 frames (assuming a 30 fps comp), but never 2.5 sec, sorry ’bout that.

Change Project settings with File>Project Settings, or Ctrl (Command) Click the Time in the timeline; explanation of what’s what here:

I don’t mess with that evil-eye stuff, but you can setup the frequency and/or the amplitude with a slider to have complete control of your wiggle, example in this earlier post;

I can’t replicate your problem.

If the mask making the shape of the solid is set to Add, and Texturize is added to the solid (Texture Layer: Set to the Rock) referencing a rock layer (eyeball off) to give a rough texture to the otherwise colored solid. Then the texture stays locked to the colored solid when a camera moves.

The only way I get the problem you seem to be describing is if the mask on the solid is actually punching a hole in the Solid (window) and you see the Rock layer below (it’s eyeball still on), but that’s not really using the Texturize plugin.

Maybe I’m not reading you right, but my texture stays locked to the color solid.

I love your stuff.

How about Wave Warp, with an expression on Wave Height that ties it to rotation. Pickwhipping give you an expression:

rotation

Put that on Wave Height.
