So I would consider myself a biginer in After Effects. I wanted to get blinking animation like 45 sec into this video, as example; http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=fysNTElCYUU
To give an impression of my skill level this is what I tried but didn't work out. I thought of just making different layers for the eyelids; open, mid, closed; and giving them their respective key frames would work but it didn't. Came out with noticeable pauses now matter what I did. So unlike the smooth motion of that video.
Help? Advice?
