Thanks so much! Worked like a charm.

The only thing was that Math.round rounds it down at .5 which I worked around by entering beginning value as 30.5 instead of 30 (I’m sure there is a math function to do this as well), then with the right line graph all the other seconds lined up perfectly until the point where I intentionally was able to do the “speed ramp” and speed up the countdown exponentially, this time using a curve.

Hi Kalle,
Thanks for your quick response.
I know pretty much nothing about AE expressions thus haven’t used a slider to modify text values. The problem is I don’t even know what to search for to find a tutorial that can help me with this.
Do you have any recommendations?
I’d also be happy to hire your services (or buy you a beer if it’s something super quick) to teach me how to do this 🙂
In the meantime I’ll keep watching some tutorials and see if I can figure it out.

Hi Filip,

In my AE project, I have a counter that needs to speed up exponentially as it counts down.
The numbers are going down from 30 so I can do this manually by creating keyframes but I’d rather learn from this experience and do it using expressions.

Do you think your solution can be applied to my case?
I’m a newbie in AE programming so hopefully my question isn’t too simple or obvious.

Thanks,

Selim
