Hello!

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLKmHB0hK9Y&t=56s

 

I watched above video today, and I have a some question about Exponential Scale.

 

Q1)

We have a Keyframe like "ease out", why do we need "Exponential Scale"?

 

Q2)

In 2:50 portion of video, I don't understand.

->Pizza_01 Layer->Duplicate->Parent Unlink->Timeline Indicator Shift->Re Parent
Why is the scale value so different when Re-Parent do it? Anyway, It just back in Parent?

 

I want you to make time for the novice.

I really want to understand.

 

Thank you! 🙂

Hello,

Firstly, this is how Exponential Scale looks like in graph editor :

 

And this is Easy Ease Out :

 

As you can see they are completely different.

 

For the second question,

 

First he used Null layer to scale Pizza layer. Then to create illusion of infinite zoom he needs a second pizza inside of first pizza. While first pizza is at end scale first pizza should be at initial scale.

 

Scale of first pizza at 00:00 = 100% and at 03:00 = %1000 --> 10x bigger

Scale of second pizza at 00:00 = 10% and at 03:00 = %100 -->10x bigger

 

So Duplicate->Parent Unlink->Timeline Indicator Shift->Re Parent means

 

By Parent Unlink he avoids the duplicate pizza from growing with first pizza. Then goes to end key where first pizza is %1000 while duplicate pizza is %100. So with Reparent he makes duplicate pizza's end scale %100 and start scale 10%.

 

English is not my native language so I hope I could make it clear and didn't make things even complicated.
