EC Abrams has posted a great overview including some of the ins and outs of how to use the Wiggle Expression in After Effects including how to link parts of the expression to sliders for more control, localize wiggle in a specific direction, and edit the random seed number – great stuff for reference here all in one place.
Evan Abrams Writes: It’s the wiggler! Not just a really greasy hairless wrestler from the 70s but a really commonly used expression in Adobe After Effects. Everyone uses it but who really understands this strange creature. You’ll learn how to wrangle the wiggler and wiggle your way around riding it like a sandworm.
Also for reference, David Torno recently took a look at using the After Effects Wiggle Expression in one direction, David also explains through some of the simple code and explains what does what in the Wiggle in one direction only expression. Check out the post for Creating an After Effects Wiggle in One Direction Only Expression here.
And, Ryan Boyle recently showed how to Use Wiggle Expression On Position For The Puppet Tool In After Effects which can be found here.
