[@rahuldeshpande3516]

This is the first time I have seen a useful usage of the Circle effect!

[@gregkrazanski]

this was and still is an awesome explanation that literally never needs to be redone by anyone haha

thanks so much, i just had a project at work where i needed to animate the eye. m ycollege was stunned and said it looks like flowing water xD

[@EmmaHerron-i9e]

how come my iris doesnt have the black portions in 16:02 i followed most of the things you've said

[@rahuldeshpande3516]

Heads up that you can use the Edge * Thickness property - and create a ring (without having to create 2 Circle effects). Great video!

this is done magicly , but it would have bin alot more helpfull specially for new people showing how you actually build this up in realtime layer by layer , just as a suggestion but true artist for sure !

Where is the Circle effect? I cant find it!

[@Motionworks]

Effect > Generate > Circle or use the Effect & Presets Panel and type in the name.

[@rahuldeshpande3516]

Blend with Original = Opaciyt of effect

It wuld have been 1000% better if you had focused on showing the exact input n output values

[@Motionworks]

Ah but that's where your own creativity kicks in Eriona!
