Animate Any Letter & Shape with Dynamic Lines | After Effects Tutorial

#aftereffects #typography #motiondesign
Transform any character, letter, or custom shape into a dynamic motion graphics piece! In this tutorial, we dive into a procedural workflow in After Effects using the "Create Nulls from Paths" script. This method allows you to create complex, looping line animations that follow your designs perfectly without the headache of manual keyframing.

[Expression Code]
Copy and paste this expression into your Path property to enable the loop:
valueAtTime(time % key(numKeys).time)
