![After Effects expression selectors for springy text
IM BACK!!! Im rusty, so go easy on me. learn to create a procedural automatic springy text, its pretty cool and youll learn a bit how the expression selectors work for text animations in After Effects.
Here is the main expression. (it wont let me put a greater than or less than sign in the description, so you will need to replace that part. its in the first if statement.
vel = effect(Layer Control)(Layer).transform.position.velocityAtTime(time);
x = Math.abs(vel[0])/10000;
if (vel[0] is less than 0){
nullPos = effect(Layer Control)(Layer).transform.position.valueAtTime(time-((textIndex-1)/24)*x);
}
else{
nullPos = effect(Layer Control)(Layer).transform.position.valueAtTime(time-((textTotal-(textIndex-1))/24)*x);
}
[nullPos[0]*(100/thisComp.width),nullPos[1]*(100/thisComp.height)]
