Create sequential animation with the repeater all on one layer. Just one layer for hundreds of animated pieces? Oh yeah! And it can be controlled with like 6 keyrames? Also yes. You’ll love how this frees up your timeline, simplifies transitions, and adds complexity to otherwise boring elements without bogging you down in precomps, large stacks, or 3rd party plugins.

If you have any questions just let me know in the comments.
