Wow! I learned a lot of new techniques in this tutorial. I need to watch it again so they sink in. Replicators and parameter behaviors are something I'm just beginning to appreciate after years of using Motion. Thanks for taking the time and effort.

It's almost identical except for I didn't make the mask around the edge. I like it spilling off a bit.

Bad ass. I particularly liked the tip on the sawtooth oscillation parameter. Very helpful techniques all around. I just made mine and will drop it in the archives. Thanks a bunch for making this tutorial!
