Woah, were have you been? Well Portland, obviously, but its been many moons since you have been around these parts of the internets. 

 

Portland is a beautiful city. Hope all is well and you are enjoying life up there.

 

I've been working, but lately realizing that I am getting a bit distant from the community. So, I am making some efforts to get back in touch.

 

As for Portland, we are enjoying it quite a bit. It's a great town with a relaxed culture, reasonable cost of living, decent schools, "fairly" active production community. I can't really ask for more than that. We bought a house and we've been really busy removing the old lady funk and wallpaper from the home.

 

 

We're coming down to an AEPDX meeting soon. See you then, I hope.

We'll have to wear name tags Todd. People will mistake us for each other, cuz.. ya know.. we look so much alike.

 

 

Oh, I thought you meant the REAL Portland (Maine).  

WHUT EVAH.

I made a little expression preset that makes animating an object in Element 3D a lot easier, by connecting the layer space transforms of a 3D layer to Group 1.

Eventually, I'll actually post this on my dormant site, but here's the Vimeo link:



Edit: And by "I made..." I mean I cobbled together some expressions by Dan Ebberts and Kevin Schires and added a few lines of code of my own.

Are the positions evenly distributed? In other words, can the position be rounded to an adjustable grid?

Hey, but only one more year of Bush, amiright!? No way he can get re-elected.

The OpenGL side of things is very new to Trapcode, and MIR represents the first step. There's certainly much more to come.
