Mathias Möhl Shows How a Little Basic Math Goes a Long Way With After Effects Expressions.

MamoWorld’s Mathias Möhl has been covering the very basics of after effects expressions, helping people who are new to the world of expression languages. Mathias does a great job of simplifying involved topics and building upon them. With this tutorial, Mathias covers using basic math with Ae expressions to do some cool things.

“This class gives you a systematic overview of the basics of the expressions language in After Effects,” Möhl says. “You learn how to do math and how to use variables to access almost everything in your project.” Using basic math, you can do things like place layers relative to each other, or let them adjust to the size of the composition automatically. Also covered is how to scale and offset a motion path with expressions. All handy stuff!
