Man, this video is underrated. Thank you so much!

[@tarazz]

Amazing video, very detailed and well done.

Hello! Great tutorial as always :) I was wondering how do you achieve to randomize the position while following a grid ? (as you showed in the example at the beginning) thanks!

[@NoSleepCreative]

Hey Andy, I arranged the layers via a script that I wrote which is not made available yet. It is also possible to do it with expressions, but it's rather difficult to explain unless I make a tutorial in the future. I'll keep that in mind for when make my next few tutorials.

Thank you!

What if you have different size images? Will this still work?

[@studui]

the first expression (time remaping) isnt working for me, it shows no image, i can figure out why, i did everything the same like you, it is like as if the framestoTime(t) isnt working, in your video at ca 3:25 when you type in random(.... the timecode of your maincomp. changes! what happens there? this could be the reason why its not working for me, becouse in my main comp there is nothing changing when i type in this expr. line

[@studui]

sorry guys i got the error, the framerate of the precomp whas at 29,9 and the framerate of the main comp was at 30... so i changend both to 30 now its working... all the best

[@studui]

but with your expression i get a lot of same images (i have 12 images in the precom) mostly i get the image on frame 12 in my maincomp aprox. 8 out of 10 dups are this frame

[@studui]

ok sorry for me being not really educated in coding... got it switch the t = random(0,100); to t = random(0,12); if you have only 12 images in your precomp and so on... all the best
