    June 22, 2020 at 10:40 am in reply to: Distribute multiple layers between two End layers?

    Is there a way to set a time offset on the start and end layer to be able to use this expression?

    I can adjust each layer manually to start 1 frame later than the previous, but it would be great to be able to adjust a slider on the End Layer and have them all interpolate between…

    Thanks again!

  • What, no ease on the end layers? I kid. This is super AWESOME! Thanks so much Dan!

    Sounds wiggy. Maybe, pre-compose or pre-render the working fill effect changing color, and then target the light color to that movie somehow?

    Would like to see the results, sounds cool!

    Looks tricky. Stock video? Voxels in a 3d particle program?

    Good luck! Would like to see the results…

    [Michael Szalapski] “Are you definitely sending it again and not duplicating the project in AME? I’ve accidentally done that before.”

    I would think so?

    I deleted both the “Done” render in the Encoder Queue, and saved my AE file, and hit Add to Encoder Queue again, then said render, and got the old results.

    Do I need to clear it from somewhere else?

    Thanks

  • Thanks Walter!

    I knew it was around some where, but not by right clicking on the comp.

    Well, this example is actually easier than if you wanted the text to just change, without the roll up effect.

    So you need to create 2 separate text layers, one for months stacked vertically, and one for the days stacked vertically. The days will be big and tall as it will go from 1-31,1-30,1-28,1-31(only the right amount of days) and so on for all each day that passed.

    Line the tops up and keyframe the position for each, and then figure out how long you want the entire scroll to take, go to that time and shift up arrow the Days Layer until the bottom day is lined up with the top month. In your example they have motion blur on the layer and eased in and out the keyframes.

    You could just do the same for the months. However, depending on the effect you are going for, I would want it to sit on the month, and then shift up when 31 goes to 1, then sit, and so on. So I think you have 11 months total (?) go 11 frames from your start keyframe and create the end keyframe with the last month at the top. Now create a keyframe on each of the 11 frames between, having letting AE do the interpretation for you. Now select all those frames, and hold down Alt and drag the end key frame out to when the last month should come up, and you will see the keys stretch accross time. Now Ctrl+C to copy all those keys, step forward a few frames, and paste all those frames so you have a stepping motion. You’ll probably have to tweak to get the timing right with the days.

    Finally, pre-compse both layers into a single composition, and then in the main timeline draw a mask around just the top line of dates, then give the mask a bit of a feather, and BAM, you got just what you need! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFrMLRQIT_k&feature=youtu.be&t=7s
