1 00:00:01,260 --> 00:00:07,730 Guys and welcome to the repeater the repeater is a very interesting property in aftereffect. 2 00:00:07,770 --> 00:00:11,470 It works on your own shapes and unfortunately you can't use it on textiles. 3 00:00:11,500 --> 00:00:13,850 That's exactly how the repeater works. 4 00:00:13,950 --> 00:00:17,430 I will draw a simple rectangle to make sure the busy is off. 5 00:00:17,430 --> 00:00:19,990 We need to animate it just over here. 6 00:00:20,370 --> 00:00:25,890 Now you're not is the anchor point is 2018 has dumped in the middle of the day but to work properly 7 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:33,460 with the repeater I would like you to come to the transport angle one and set the position to 0 0. 8 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:34,140 OK. 9 00:00:34,290 --> 00:00:39,170 Which means that the shape is in the middle of its own layer lower than you want to move the anchor 10 00:00:39,250 --> 00:00:42,850 point of the lever to the middle of the ship that will be for convenience. 11 00:00:42,900 --> 00:00:49,860 You can use the shortcut control alt one or command Altona on the Mac or you can just come to the pan 12 00:00:49,860 --> 00:00:51,600 behind tool and drag it over here. 13 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,330 So now you have the anchor point zero zero and the position zero zero. 14 00:00:55,470 --> 00:00:58,090 This is the best way to start working with the repeater. 15 00:00:59,170 --> 00:00:59,970 Let's play it. 16 00:00:59,980 --> 00:01:05,590 Peter I will apply the repeated arm the contents not inside the ship group itself. 17 00:01:06,660 --> 00:01:09,310 Come to our aid and go to a repeater. 18 00:01:09,310 --> 00:01:13,040 Here it is OK let's right now repeater. 19 00:01:13,210 --> 00:01:16,380 And we notice that by default we have three copies. 20 00:01:16,420 --> 00:01:21,430 It has created three copies of the only original shape including the original one. 21 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,010 You can add the number of copies for example 6. 22 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,040 You can make them six whatever you like. 23 00:01:26,110 --> 00:01:30,330 You can offset them for example if you set minus two. 24 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,910 It means that the original copy will be offset by two. 25 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,920 It's the third position now and you have to copies it before it if you say man and three of course is 26 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,550 going to be number four and it has three copies before it. 27 00:01:42,820 --> 00:01:49,520 If you put two is going to skip to start giving you or showing you the first copy. 28 00:01:49,610 --> 00:01:57,770 Ok let's face it sometimes it's useful to use the offset you not is here we have the first copy and 29 00:01:57,830 --> 00:02:00,850 the second copy is at 100 boxes. 30 00:02:00,890 --> 00:02:01,670 How's that. 31 00:02:01,670 --> 00:02:06,500 If you come to the default here you are not in that position has been set to 100. 32 00:02:06,500 --> 00:02:12,400 It means repeat this ship every 100 boxes from the previous one. 33 00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:15,280 The first one appears at the original position. 34 00:02:15,290 --> 00:02:21,860 Second one will appear at 100 boxes from the previous one and the third one also will appear at that 35 00:02:21,920 --> 00:02:24,200 100 pixel from the previous one. 36 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,900 So this concept you can see better with the scale. 37 00:02:27,050 --> 00:02:30,340 For example if I give the scale at 120 percent. 38 00:02:30,770 --> 00:02:34,040 So the first copy is at 100 percent of the scale. 39 00:02:34,250 --> 00:02:39,890 The second one is that one had the 20 percent or 20 percent increment from the previous one. 40 00:02:39,890 --> 00:02:44,150 The third one is 120 percent of the previous one and so on. 41 00:02:44,150 --> 00:02:50,990 So you have an increment in the scale and on if you want to witness the rotation. 42 00:02:50,990 --> 00:02:56,350 Let's take this Shepler's just over here and let's give the rotation 45 degrees. 43 00:02:56,430 --> 00:02:57,570 Just for example. 44 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:58,490 What is that. 45 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:04,820 The second one is at 45 degrees from the previous one and the third one at 45 degrees from its previous 46 00:03:04,820 --> 00:03:07,510 one so it's at 90 degrees from the origin. 47 00:03:07,820 --> 00:03:08,780 And so on. 48 00:03:08,870 --> 00:03:11,860 You start rotating 45 degrees from the previous one. 49 00:03:11,950 --> 00:03:14,720 For example you give it an not do unless it 30 percent. 50 00:03:14,870 --> 00:03:17,600 You notice how the increments now is 30 percent. 51 00:03:18,650 --> 00:03:25,660 Now let's do this and you have the start opacity and the end opposite the way it works is you start 52 00:03:25,660 --> 00:03:31,090 with the start opacity and you and with the end opacity meaning whatever value you give to the start 53 00:03:31,090 --> 00:03:38,590 opacity it works its way through the number of copies to reach the end opacity which is at 100 percent. 54 00:03:38,620 --> 00:03:45,010 If I put it for example at it you notice here you have almost 100 percent opacity and it's dividing 55 00:03:45,010 --> 00:03:48,490 the opacity from one to the other to get to 100 percent. 56 00:03:48,490 --> 00:03:51,000 Of course it can work the other way. 57 00:03:51,070 --> 00:03:56,550 So you start with 100 percent opacity and ends with zero percent opacity. 58 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,810 It's pretty cool to see that it. 59 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,390 So now the concept is like this. 60 00:04:01,580 --> 00:04:07,770 You either repeated you set the number of copies and then you decide how it's going to be repeated. 61 00:04:07,820 --> 00:04:14,430 You can use position scale wherever you like good guys in the next lecture will start doing some applications 62 00:04:14,550 --> 00:04:17,030 about the repeater and see you then.
