Let's get loopy with the loopOut. A simple script with many possibilities. Also it's a good way to ease yourself into scripting things to save time, which is the first step to making the computer do all your work for you. And when you figure that out I'll be out of a job and go back to living in my mom's basement.

The correct spelling of loopOut is just like that and it should look like:
loopOut("cycle")
loopOut("pingpong")
loopOut("continue")
loopOut("offset")
and that's about it. If you have trouble just let me know and I'll do my best to helo you out in the comments below!

And you can see the loop out hard at work in my cat keyboard animation *plug* here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhE0XFlNQtM

See you around the Internets!

  • im getting a error when opening Adobe After Effects it said unknown Adobe Player Engine Scripting will be disabled

  • @GoldRushStudio sounds like one for the adobe folks. Could be a corrupted install. Could be conflicting plugins. Best bet is to google that bad boy, even I call tech support when the poops hit the fan like that.

  • Your tut is really nice, love your pace, tone of voice, slight touch of humor (in my case I found it hilarious), not only that, but it's super useful!!

  • @PokerStrategyEnglish well thank you kindly sir. Glad you enjoy.

  • great video bro!

  • @SikKidMusic thanks champ, I am way to lazy in my publishing cycles though.

see all

  • Thanks man. Exactly what I needed. I can use this like I used nested movieclips in Flash.

  • Dude, you can put loopOut on time remap, then you will have to make one expressions instead of many.
