I've got more tutorials I've got in my pipeline, including a review for Stardust (a particle plugin) but if you have any other questions about new After Effects features, let me know.
An in-depth tutorial on the new data-driven animation possibilities would be great. Something showing start to finish from an Excel file, through JSON converter and then how to access/use the data in AE.
This was exactly what I was looking for. I was trying to find a way to animate some simple low poly artwork. The "CreatePath" was exactly what I needed. Thanks for sharing your expertise here! Two thumbs up from me.
Thanks Mikey, even though I've used AE for years I still learn from your videos -- and I prefer your channel to others like Mt. Mograph or ECAbrams because those are sufferingly long considering how much they actually teach. You're concise, precise, and achieve a great balance.
Thank you very much for an helpful video. Do you have any idea - how can I link objects along a path so that they orient along its curves& So that the once-utwards part of an object remains outwards? So that a N-S axes of an object remain perpendicaular to the path? Also it is like auto-orirnting along the path of a moving object, applied to meny objects that are along the path? Mikey, - I failed to find how to do that and would be very gratefull if you'd tell me..
So great thankyou! Helped massively on my current project, attaching many moving greebles to a moving path! Slider: Alternatively you can also ctrl+click on the slider and change the range to 0 to 1. I'd love to know where I'm going wrong when it offsets the child shape layer. Probably a toComp expression would help but to quickly be able to offset when this happens, I add +value; to the end
Hi there, great tutorial by the way. I am trying to do the last example, nulls moving the points of a path, but in reverse, and with a shape rather than a path. Is this possible? I want to attach nulls to the corners of a rectangle that I have resizing to fit a textbox.
I placed Triangle instead of circle for pointOnpath function and it results flip at the end when i give Orient to path.....just before the slider ends its work fine, but at the last few frames its happening Kindly do help me@
I don't have this update yet. Just updated and it says I'm still on Version 14.0.0.207. Is it available to everyone. My CC says I'm running the current version, but definitely don't have this feature.
What If I want to connect Path point of one shape object to Position property of another shape object in the same Shape Layer? Another words, make everything you describe, but in one layer.
createPath(points = [[0,0], [100,0], [100,100], [0,100]], inTangents = [], outTangents = [], is_closed = true) this will make strate lines square, but how can we make curves with these points; bezier shape??? thx
next time show what you're gonna be doing in the tutorial first just so that you dont waste people's time watching something that they dont need. Thanks for the tutorial, anyway.

I had planned to do that as well, but good to know its wanted.
Sorry to ask but at 11:25 where doe the -[960,540] values come from.
assuming compostion to be 1920x1080.mid poi
That is so cool. Exactly what I needed. And it opens so many doorways. Thanks!

Excellent tutorial, pal. Thank you (from Brazil)
This is cool, I going to download the new version tonight. I really happy I get to mess around with some new Expression too!
GREAT tutorial. I was also searching for a simple explanation to control different points in a path individually via Nulls. YES.
Man, this saved soo much time - I wasn't aware AE had this - simply brilliant
Thanks so much. It was exactly what I needed for a spinning globe and locations around the world getting connected!
Thank you thats very helpful!
Exactly what I needed, thanks so much ❤️
This tutorial is priceless, thank you so much for sharing this information!!
Brilliant tutorial. You have no idea how much this tutuorial has helped me. Thanks for making this.
Awesome dude! Pretty helpful for character rigging.
Excellent. I was looking for a way to make a path point follow a tracker. This works beautifully; thank you.
Hello, any chance you could send me that script I didn't understand how it works.
Helped me heaps! Thank you!
Thanks Mikey, even though I've used AE for years I still learn from your videos -- and I prefer your channel to others like Mt. Mograph or ECAbrams because those are sufferingly long considering how much they actually teach. You're concise, precise, and achieve a great balance.
Well I don't know much about Mt. Mograph, but I really do love ECAbrams videos, met him in person as well, super great guy!!!
Thank you for posting this video. This has exactly the solution to my problem in it :)

Thank you this is really useful
thank you very much, this is exactly what I need!
If I have a null set to a point with a bezier that shifts, should the null rotate with the bezier movement?
Thanks you so much, you are my god. Exactly what i want, you are the best !!
Exccllent. Exactly what I need. Thank you.
thanks for this script related tutorial which is few and far between on UA-cam
So great thankyou! Helped massively on my current project, attaching many moving greebles to a moving path!

thank you for watching .. please, ask? how to make a path but "shape 1" to "shape 2"?? i don't working this ,thanks
thank you very much! with love from Russia 🥰
wow thanks man
very nice tutorial, 2022 and still helpful
It's work's with AE later 2017?

how we can add two paths using expression and apply the same effect?
thanks w/ Mikey
can single null object follow multiple path?
How we can apply the same effect on Merge Paths ?
I love you.
yeah Mike where is the other video that you mention about what can be done with this script,,thanx

try checking for app updates, like I showed at 0:37
Yeah, tried that... and signing out then signing back in. I'm thinking maybe I need to update iOS or something.
What If I want to connect Path point of one shape object to Position property of another shape object in the same Shape Layer? Another words, make everything you describe, but in one layer.
Aaaaaaaaaand what about changing already existing path-points?
wow
createPath(points = [[0,0], [100,0], [100,100], [0,100]], inTangents = [], outTangents = [], is_closed = true)
this will make strate lines square,
but how can we make curves with these points; bezier shape???
thx
Hello!!!!!!!!!!!!
7:04 Pickle Rick
"function tPath.points is undefined" ???
stupid Adobe make this whole year. Stupid update.
next time show what you're gonna be doing in the tutorial first just so that you dont waste people's time watching something that they dont need. Thanks for the tutorial, anyway.
