You can always use Open Source Movies at the Prelinger Archives. Archive.org
https://www.archive.org/movies/opensource_movies.php
Click on the “Information about Uplaoding”.
You have to register and log in.
A great place for freebies and Public Domain stuff (Prelinger and Feature Films my favs).

Or, if no AE6.5, Split the layer at the point you want to select all keyframes, then you can select all the keyframes (select the property) easily in the split layer that goes forward in time.
-
Right Click the keyframe and choose between:
SELECT PREVIOUS kEYFRAMES
SELECT FOLLOWING kEYFRAMES
Select Equal Keyframes
The first two choices are new with AE 6.5
If you don’t have 6.5, maybe your stuck doing the inverse of my first post.
Select the property, thus selecting all the keyframes, then deselect the ones you don’t want change with “Shift” and dragging a little marquee.
Otherwise, I dunno.

Parts of this from Serge might work for you:
Candlelight, comes with an aep and the original post.
Lots of other coolstuff there too.

I dunno if this is what you mean, but:
Select the layer(s) the keyframes are in.
Hit “u” to reveal all keyframes.
With your little arrow cursor, select the key frames from where you want to the end. You can drag a little marquee around the keyframes (like making a rectangular selection in PhotoShop), very fast and easy.

When you paste the AI stroke into a layer in AE(new solid or other) it will become a mask. You’ll apply the Stroke to that mask.
If you have a hang up pasting into AE, Then in AI: Edit>Preferences > Files and Cipboard, and make sure the AICB radio button is checked (mine has PDF checked (AI 10) and it also works).
You can edit masks in AE by hitting “m” on the keyboard, to reveal mask shape.
Selecting a vertex (the little nodes/points), will bring up handles to change it the curve, and you can drag the vertex. Double clicking a vertex will give you a transform box like in Photoshop.
If you want the mask shape to change over time, keyframe the changes over time.The Pen Tool in AE is very similar to AI’s pen tool for adding and removeing points. If you’re familiar with AI, you’ll get it right away.

For that real feel of depth, think about going into AE 3D Land.
“Expresssing the Camera” by Rick Gerard is a must see movie for flying a camera around in AE 3D Land.
https://www.creativecow.net/show.php?forumid=2&page=/articles/gerard_rick/AEWeekly2/index.html
It comes with a cheat sheet, footage and aep.

An advanced search of “one axis only” lead to this:
The above leads to a great tut, “Express Your Wiggle”.
The expression to wiggle only the y axis would look like this:
[position[0], position.wiggle(5,5)[1]]
position.wiggle(5, 5, octaves = 1, amp_mult = .5, t = time)
Or
[position[0], position.wiggle(5,5,1,.5)[1]]
