Ball & Line Test 

 

here is a little test i did on after effects to see how i would get a ball to drop on to a line

Playing with Line 

another test on a line animation 

Square 

following the other line test i then did one but with 90 degree angles

for any line i made and created i just followed a simple pattern on after effects....

animating a line? 

 layer > new> solid 

reduce opacity 

draw line, put opicity up 

effect > generate > stroke 

change colour, stroke width if needed 

select on transparent 

set keyframes 'end' at 0% then more the slider in the timeline 

and set to 100% where you want it to end... 

then its just a case of playing around with timings to get the correct speed of the line transformation
