Next, I’ll add a slider control to each null object by selecting Effect > Expression Controls > Slider Control. To achieve this, I’ll create two null objects and rename them Amplitude and Frequency. I want to control both of these individually. So why did I create two? Well, if you take a closer look at the wiggle expression, you’ll notice two attributes: frequency and amplitude. These layers will give me control over my expression. Let’s take a look at how you can accomplish this without setting aside a week of time to learn a bunch of expression language.įor the first step, I will create two null objects. The client is happy with the look however, they need an animated GIF version for use on a website. For the GIF, they’ve requested that the wiggle effect animate in and out, from no movement to full wiggle, and then back again. I have a wiggle expression applied to the word coffee, giving it a jittery and over-caffeinated look. The project is simple: a coffee mug with text that reads too much coffee. I’m currently working on a very basic motion graphics project.
