Complex Environment Movement in After Effects

Let’s find the connection in things to bring your scene to life! I’ll be showing you one of my favorite animation concepts, something I like to call -- the Global Variable.

Beginners beware, I'll be covering advanced techniques with expressions and skimming over the basics.

I made more scripts.
It connects things.
It's free.

(These scripts are free and of my own making. Current build ONLY supports After Effects CC 2018/2019/2020/2021 for Windows 7/10 and Mac OSX in English and has had limited testing. These scripts are not required to animate your environment with the global variable concept, think of them as more of a luxury and time saver! Also, currently, 3D position is not support.)
