Overview

In this video, I show how to animate random numbers in Cavalry. I build a rig where each duplicate generates its own random start and end values, then animate those values with a value blend. Along the way, I look at shape time offset with a stagger, and finish by aligning the pivot point with the Align behavior.

Covered in this video:

• Setting up a text layer with a string generator
• Blending between two values with a value blend
• Driving start and end values with random layers
• Using a duplicator to generate varied random numbers
• Animating blend percentage with keyframes
• Keyframing shape opacity and staggering with shape time offset
• Using the Align behavior to adjust pivot point placement
