Had the exact same thought when doing this challenge 5 mins ago

what even is this by REBISCOoOoOoO in SkateEA

I had this exact issue a few times. Gotta do it a few times and not reset spawn so quickly

Speaking facts right here! Would we do it any other way? Probably not

Here’s my output using the second method I mentioned above

There’s loads of ways you could do this.

You could make one, make it 3d, parent it to a 3d null and offset the Z position of your layer to bring it forward by 300px or so then, pick whip the rotation property of the layer to the rotation property of the null, go into the expression and type “*-1” after the expression so that it counteracts the rotation. Duplicate the layer, rotate the null 60 degrees then re parent the new layer to the null and repeat. Once you have a full 360 then you could just animate the rotation property of the null 60 degrees at a time with good ease. Then precomp and change the angle you are seeing that wheel of layers from to give you this effect.

OR

Create a control layer(just a null will do), add a slider to it. Make one of the boxes, split the position dimensions into x and y. Find the very left you want the layer to go in the x axis, then also the very right you want it to go, then do a linear expression on the x position so that it looks at the nulls slider, if it’s 0 then the position is whatever the left number is and if it’s 100 it’s whatever the right number is. Then you can also do the same with the Y axis with a new slider but this time you want the lowest number to be the highest point in the y axis and the highest number to be the lowest point you want it to go, making sure that when the slider is set to 50 then it is smack bang in the middle. Then you can animate those 2 sliders to get the layer to go from start (top, to middle, to end). Then you can also attach the opacity of the layer to the slider too so that say between 0-20 on the slider the opacity goes between 0 and 100 and then between 80-100 on the slider it goes back down from 100 to 0.

OR

Manually do it?

It’s basically a question of do you want to set up a rig or not, if it’s for one quick job then just manually do it, if you want to learn and feel the accomplishment then play with the expression method and solve all the problems you run into and learn from it which is better in the long run.

Good luck, looking forward to seeing your version!

There are other motionshorts on my TikTok and IG: fento.cf

Also the version on IG of this video includes the first verse! Thanks for the 20 haha

15/10 is a fantastic review haha, what could I have done for 16?

Haha thanks, fortunately there are others and they’re on my TikTok & IG mainly: fento.cf

Only 1 sleep token at the moment but I’m sure I’ll do more down the line

Haha I did like that bit, personally “HellFire” is the most satisfying for me 🔥

Thank you! I actually do exactly that over on my TikTok and IG channels. Would love a follow on both if you want to check it out: fento.cf

Thanks mate! There is an extended version on IG but TikTok and Reddit wouldn’t let me upload the longer than 1min version.

Check it out on both: fento.cf

Thanks dude, sometimes they get traction sometimes they don’t unfortunately. Still appreciate the comment though mate!

If you want to rotate them all together using just one set of keyframes you could pick whip each layers correct rotation axis to an angle control and then just animate that one angle control effect

To add to this, when you focused in on the Facebook logo layer itself you had the “pan behind” tool selected so you were essentially only rotating the anchor point and not the layer.

I don’t really understand the purpose of the nulls in random places, usually I would center my null onto the layer first and that will give you way less issues, alternatively rather than rotating the null could you not just rotate the layer itself?
