Video

Nice video!!!!

Is there any way to get it to align right instead of centered?

This tutorial no longer works. There's an expression error on the interpolation code that prevents you from completing the project.

Hey there, is there an easy way to go forward in time instead of back? where the dates are moving in the other direction? Thanks!

Is there a way I can get in contact with you about your intro transitions? I'd like to do a peeling maps transition :D. Would love to pick your brain on that!

Criminally underrated channel. Going to spend some time to go through your loki tutorials and this dynamic text tut so I can use them on my first longform video.

An intimate discussion with Binance's CEO about future developments

please help!!! the very first line of the interpolation code says "Error: object of type found where a number, array, or property is needed." Everything up to this point was going so good i absolutely love this tutorial

I was able to get it to cycle through [by switching to Legacy ExtendScript], but in the end everything just disappears. I never get to see my final text value.

What values need to change in the Text Layer Position expression to make the number/dot move vertically instead of horizontally? Thanks.

@mediaworkbench i got the error 'invalid numeric result (divided by zero ?)' on var datetime line

var step = 100/effect("value step")("Slider"); var ref = (effect("animation")("Slider")%step)/step; if(ref>0.5){ var res= linear(ref,0.5,1,effect("left")("Slider"),effect("center")("Slider")); }else{ var res= linear(ref,0,0.5,effect("center")("Slider"),effect("right")("Slider")); } value = [res,transform.position[1]];

Why do my numbers only change digits when the digits are in the middle? Does anyone know how to fix this? Or is it supposed to be like that?

Woahh! :)

im getting string not defined error at the first step

Excellent video, thank you for sharing!

Did anyone ever figure out the issue with endDate not working?

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Hey man....❤Love ur content and this is a request to make a tutorial about making this in Da vinci resolve...

Hey Guys, In case your code is not working, you can use the following var step = 100 / effect("Value Step")("Slider").value; var ref = (effect("Animation")("Slider").value % step) / step; var res; if (ref > 0.5){ res = linear(ref, 0.5, 1, effect("left")("Slider").value, effect("center")("Slider").value); } else { res = linear(ref, 0, 0.5, effect("center")("Slider").value, effect("right")("Slider").value); } [res, value[1]];

Doesn't work for me either "Object of type found where a Number, Array, or Property is needed" apparently it concerns this first line : var textSource = parent.text.sourceText; Some Help

Suggest me the best sound effect for this animation

"Object of type found where a Number, Array, or Property is needed" Using AE Beta 2024, I followed the entire video typing along with you and was met with the expression error above. Ran the built-in "Update legacy expressions" script and applied it to every expression in the main comp. The only correction I believe was in the interpolation expression (the "function" part of the script to the top or something I can't remember exactly). The text appears upon making a "Source text" keyframe, however the animation is not set in motion. The time remap expression does not work anymore, as each characters pre comp is stuck at one timestamp throughout the whole sequence, therefore not changing unicode. I will now basically have to use 25% of this tutorial and animate the time remap to recreate the effect manually. @MediaWorkBench would love to hear back if you have any insight as to how the script update has effected the expressions, and if there's a sensible fix.

var step = 100/effect("VALUE STEP")("Slider"); var ref = (effect("ANIMATIONS")("Slider")%step)/step; if(ref>0.5){ }else{ } I Keep getting an Error Message "Undefined value used in expression"

These variables keep giving me an expression error

Just Copy & Paste var step = 100 / effect("Value Step")("Slider"); var ref = (effect("Animation")("Slider") % step) / step; if(ref > 0.5) { var res = linear(ref,0.5,1,effect("Left")("Slider"),effect("Center")("Slider")); } else{ var res = linear(ref,0,0.5,effect("Center")("Slider"),effect("Right")("Slider")); } value = [res,transform.position[1]]; var step = 100 / effect("Value Step")("Slider"); var ref = Math.floor(effect("Animation")("Slider") / step); var src = (effect("Animation")("Slider") % step) / step; ref = src > 0.5 ? ref + 1 : ref; value = Math.floor(linear(ref,0,effect("Value Step")("Slider"),effect("Start Value")("Slider"),effect("End Value")("Slider")));

At 24:48 I get the error message "Error: Couldn't turn result into numeric value". How do I fix this?

To everyone that is confused about why the set matte isn't working for them, it is because on the newer versions of after effects, you have to change the other option from "source" to "Effects and masks". Then it will work as it does for him. Your welcome!

its nice but it s not working var step = 100/effect("Value Step")("Slider"); var ref =(effect("Animation")("Slider")%step)/step; if(ref>0.5){ var res = linear(ref,0.5,1,effect("Left")("Slider"),effect("Center")("Slider")); }else{ var res = linear(ref,0,0.5,effect("Center")("Slider"),effect("Right")("Slider")); } value [res,transform.position[1]]; " got the error undefined value used in expression could be out of range an array?"

I can't seem to change the timing, 2 seconds is so fast. Please help!

thanks for the tutorial! I'm stuck at the super long expression (the one that starts with "function findChar(keyIndex,parentLayer,currentNext,seed)" as After Effects gives me the error " Object of type found where a Number, Array or Property is needed". How can I bypass this error?

Hey!! I'm not sure if you still check the comments (since the vid was made 2 years ago lol), but I'm trying to do this but only with months and not years! so my Text is just "December" "November" and the idea is I just want it to animate through all of the months till January!! So at 9:50 I don't really know what to put in the start value or the end value as they are numerical. Is there any way to fix this? Thank you!!

var step = 100/effect("Value Step")("Slider"); var ref = (effect("Animation")("Slider")%step)/step; if(ref>0,5){ var res = linear(ref,0.5,1,effect("Left")("Slider"),effect("Center")("Slider")); }else{ var res = linear(ref,0,0.5,effect("Center")("Slider"),effect("Right")("Slider")); } value = [res,transformation.position[1]]; I'm having an error on the last line. It says "transformation is not defined". Can somebody help?

I can't get the expressions right... can they be written on the 2024 version?

Platilla del 2017 al 23 o 24

Hello i am having trouble in this when ever i put the code for position expression in 21:31 the 0 layer moves to the right but in the video it is in center and i am using after effects 2022

awesome tutorial and I followed it without errors with AE 2024 for my anniversary church project. thanks so much for uploading it. but then I want to make it slide back to the start value and cannot find the expression. Since I am no coder, would you be so kind to give me tips on how to do it? thanks so much.

So turns out I wrote the expression wrong for the latest versions of After Effects CC. Anywhere in the code where "this." is used, just omit it or use "thisLayer." It seems "this." as a selector was depreciated in the latest AE versions. I will be updating the code snippets on the Media Workbench website to be correct to save anyone time. Sorry I missed it... that's awkward to have happen in an hour long tutorial.

next branches animation

Great Tutorial . Thank you sir !!

I have followed the steps well and correctly, when it comes to Main Composition at the Position Expression stage: var numberLetters = this.parent.effect("Max Comps")("Slider"); var xPos = ((this.name - this.parent.effect("Starting Comp")("Slider")) - (numberLetters/2)) (number ofLetters/2)) * this.parent.effect("Letter Tracking")("Slider")); value = [xPos,transform.position[1]]; I got the following error: Warning After Effect: Expression Disabled Error on line 1 in the 'Position' property of layer 2 ('0') in the 'Main Composition' comp. TypeError: Unable to read undefined property (reading 'effect') but where is the error? I have followed the steps correctly.

please, help a property or method named 'ref' is missing or does not exist in the global class. It may have been renamed, moved, deleted, or there was a mistake in the name var step = 100/effect("Step")("Slider"); var red = (effect("Animation")("Slider")%step)/step; if(ref>0.5) { var res = linear(ref,0.5,1,effect("left")("Slider"),effect("centre")("Slider")); } else { var res = linear(ref,0,0,5,effect("centre")("Slider"),effect("right")("Slider")); } value = [res,transform.position[1]];

Oh thank you, this is tutorial what i looking for.

what sound effect do u use for split flap display?

Oh god this is way to complicated for a beginner like 😂 me who only uses the filmora app 😱 there must be an easier way 👀👀👀

var numberOfLetters = this.parent.effect("Max Comp")("Slider"); var xPos = ((this.name - this.parent.effect("Starting Comp")("Slider")) - (numberOfLetters/2)) * this.parent.effect("Letter Tracking")("Slider"); value = [xPos,transform.position[1]]; After Effects warning: Expression Disabled Error at line 1 in property 'Position' of layer 2 ('0') in comp 'Main Comp'. TypeError: Cannot read property 'effect' of undefined I'm using AE CC 2022

Now I need the sound effects used

Nah man!! I tried everything and still the slider not moving 😭😭😭😭😭😭
