Create the layer with the text and this expression to the anchorpoint
thisComp.layer(index – 1).transform.anchorpoint – [0,0,.5]This’ll push your current layer .5 pixels behind the layer above it. Continue duplicating the layer to add depth. Instead of having to go through each layer to make changes just delete your duplicates, make your change, and reduplicate.

Trapcode’s Lux should be a good start

You can use the set matte effect. One for each layer you’d like to use as a matte.

I’d use CC Light Sweep

When I was into qbasic programming there was a very useful command that allowed you to look at just the first, last, or middle charecters of a string. Is this available in Java, or AE for that matter? It would be great for creating the typing effect via expressions.

I threw something together that was coming along well but I got kicked out of the edit bay.
I duplicated the lines pretty decently by generating a grid with a width thats larger than your comp and a height that leaves 4 or 5 lines across the screen. Set the border for the thickness. Rotate it slightly and then add a turbulant displace. Set the size to about 10 and an amount of about 80 and wiggle the revolution. wiggle(30,180) And I made the lines scroll down the screen.
Then in a second comp I used a grid to make scan lines. The width again is larger than your comp the height and border set to about 2.
In the final comp place your both comps. Use the scan lines as a matte.
This at the moment won’t look exactly like what you want but it’s well on it’s way.

November 16, 2006 at 10:36 pm in reply to: Tyler Paul’s Toonificator V3.0 The Update To End All Major Updates!Well, I’m pretty sure the most current effect that is used is CC vector blur which became available in 6.5. What other ways are there to transfer this template? Like I said, I may make the script but it would be very tedious and I don’t have the time. I imagine you can use animation presets within the script. That would make it a hellovah lot easier. But are there any other possibilities that I’m missing?
