Evan Abrams takes a look at After Effects Shape Layer Repeater engine to create radial motion graphics and animation easily, showing how simple it can be to get some pretty great looking animation quickly.

The shape layer repeater is a powerful and excellent tool that you should for sure know about and exploit often to make amazing graphics quickly and cheaply

Evan starts out with a simple example and explanation, moving and expanding on that premise to create some more interesting animation, and presents a couple of scenarios to experimenting with. Shape Layer properties are one of After Effects’ shining jewel features; If you understand the options and parameters that are available to you with Shape Layers and their corresponding additions, you can soon realize some pretty complex animation without a lot of hassle.
