Re: Creating a simple loop

[mikederk] "1. Make an 13 frame piece of footage. This is Comp 1.
2. Nest Comp 1 into Comp 2. Make Comp 2 only 12 frames long.
3. In Comp 2, enable Time Remapping.
4. In the Animation Menu, go to "Add Expression"
5. In Time Remapping, add the expression "loopOut ( )"
6. Make Comp 3, of any duration. Nest Comp 2 into Comp 3.
7. Play... and see a repeating loop?"

Cut out step 6 and alter steps 2 & 3:

1. Make an 13 frame piece of footage. This is Comp 1.
2. Nest Comp 1 into Comp 2. Make Comp 2 however long you want the footage to loop for.
3. In Comp 2, enable Time Remapping and drag the out point of Comp 1 out to the end of Comp 2.
4. In the Animation Menu, go to "Add Expression"
5. In Time Remapping, add the expression "loopOut()"
6. Play... and see a repeating loop!!!
