Thanks for your reply. I’ll give Steve a chance.
I think that I was also getting confused with the two different dvd sets that Mr Holmes has out there (“Essentials” and “Professional Features”), but I’ve got it straight now.

Thanks for your help! You are right, if I follow your directions exactly, then your script works. However, it appears that is the only way to get it to work (a brand new, blank project). If there is anything in the project window other than Comp 1, then the script will not work. For example, after getting it to work with Comp 1, I made another blank comp and tried again. I get the “done!” message, but nothing is created. If I have any footage items in the project window at all, then I recieve the “Unable to execute script at line 26. undefined is not an object” error message, even though I am running the script with a blank comp selected.

I know that there were scripting changes made in AE7 that causes problems with earlier scripts. I am using AE7 Professional on a PC.

Hey man, thank you for the script. Unfortunately, it does not appear to work with AE7. I get an error:

“Unable to execute script at line 26. undefined is not an object”

Aha!
Thank you!

Ummm…right…turn on motion blur….

But where is that again? There isn’t a motion blur swatch for the camera layer in the timeline, and the only blur setting I see when I open layer –> camera settings is when I enable depth of field, which is a different type of blur (correct??).

I guess I don’t know what you mean by “composite settings.”

No, I haven’t tried googling something like that, but that’s a good idea. I’ll look into it.
And I checked the install CD for CC documentation, but I didn’t see any. I’ll check again.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

OR……I could create a null, position the null where I want it, link the layer to the null, and scale the null!
