Simple but really cool ..
thanks …
Nice one man! Always love to see expression tutorials!
What did you say at the end? Oh crap something xD
dope stuff man, dope stuff
kinda copy of this tut http://maxafter.com/heartrate.htm
no, that one is animated by keyframes and loops, this is using expressions and it is connected to the sound so this is at least 2 classes better then maxafter one.
no, maxafter uses keyframes for animating and Jorrit uses expressions and connect them to sound effect witch makes it very easy to edit.
So Jorrit > Maxafter
sorry for double post
Yah I agree with u
Pretty cool to see!
Nice
thx a lot
Hey, ayato has a simpler solution that doesn’t involve 3rd party plug-ins or expressions.
Actually, you can get an easier result with “Write on” plugin and a couple sine wave expressions.
the higher beaty thingy is called a snare
Nice tut, but I think the end result would of looked better with just a black background, and a kind of more electro feel to it.
nice and simple. very useful
paraphrasing
ECG tracings are totally wrong. lol but nice animation nonetheless.
Anyone know where I can get a tutorial for a Flash version of this? I’m trying to do a sort of timeline but what the line to be animated a bit like the heart rate monitor. Tried a few things so far but none working.
Any help gratefully received.
