![After Effects Tutorial | Expression Controls
In this tutorial I will show you how to use Expression Controls and Control Layers to control other layers. I will be using slider controls and color controls. I will also show you how to use some basic expressions: index, value, and I will show you how to declare variables. This is very useful and it can help you stay organised.
Expressions used:
Size:
controlIndex = thisComp.layer(Control Layer).index
scaleMultiplier = thisComp.layer(Control Layer).effect(Scale Multiplier)(Slider)
value * (controlIndex - index) * (scaleMultiplier /20)
Stroke Width:
thisComp.layer(Control Layer).effect(Stroke Width)(Slider)
Stroke Color:
thisComp.layer(Control Layer).effect(Stroke Color)(Color)
