Design Production for Digital//Top 10//After Effects Shake Effect.

For the start and end solid layer key frames in each of my four ident compositions (storyboards and developments of which can be found on my Design Practice blog) I wanted to learn how to create a shaking effect to make my text "bob" up and down- and I found this video on Youtube which proved really useful- and taught me about how to apply the wiggler effect and combing layers with null objects to also mask the effect over them. In my tests, I found that even on a minimal movement, smooth setting the effect was a little too rapid and sharp for what I had in mind- but a great tool nonetheless- and an effect to consider at a later stage for my title sequence.
