Hey
Started using After Effects today, since I found it was actaully better to use to animate 2D then Premier. Now I have this burning question which I can't seem to find an answer to - how do I make a looping animation go for longer with out stretching the frame rate. Like the animation consists of 13 frames @ 25 per second, now how would I make it go on a timeline for say 10 seconds using the same settings (so that the 13 frames are looping @ 25 frames per second for say a duration of 10 seconds).
What I'm trying to do is make a motion of it on a background which is already in motion as well. Here is a more down to earth explanation:
Say I have a panning camera view of a background (slowly moving to the left for e.g), how do I make an animation of a say a dot that's blinking to move across the background while still playing the little blinking animation. So basically an animated clip(constantly looping animation) moving on top of an object been animated.
Hope it makes sense:sad: , thank you for your help in advance :D
EDIT: the animation I'm using is an import of a sequence of png files :)
