After Effects Expressions

The document provides several After Effects expressions for different animation effects: 1. Wiggle, Inertia Bounce, and Scale Bounce expressions use values like frequency and amplitude to generate animated wiggles or bounces based on keyframes. 2. Bounce Back and Drop Bounce expressions simulate bouncing physics with parameters like elasticity and gravity to bounce values back from keyframes. 3. Loop and number counting expressions are also included to loop layers or format number values from sliders with commas.

Wiggle(1, 10)
INERTIA BOUNCE

t = time - key(n).time;
}

amp = .05;
freq = 4.0;
decay = 8.0;
value + v*amp*Math.sin(freq*t*2*Math.PI)/Math.exp(decay*t);
}else{
value;

LOOP (PINGPONG)
Make a key frame then loop using pingpong bounce
loopOut(“pingpong”)
Number counting
*note:copy these values to the source text

num = value; //highlight the value and drag the whiplash to the sider control

function addCommas(x) {
return x.toString().replace(/\B(?=(\d{3})+(?!\d))/g, ",");

addCommas(num)
Number counting 2
*note:copy these values to the source text

num + “prefix”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
