Adobe After Effects CC 2024: How to Use LoopOut + Wiggle Expression
**Description:
**This tutorial will show you how to use both the loopOut + Wiggle Expression on the same transform property in Adobe After Effects CC 2024.
**Note:
**This tutorial uses the loopOut(“pingpong”) and the Position Property, but it will work with other loopOut expressions and transform properties.

**Expressions Used:
**loopOut(“pingpong”);
wiggle (6,10);
**Variables:
**Container used to define expression
loop = loopOut(“pingpong”);
wiggle = wiggle (6,10);
**Final Formula
**loop + wiggle -value

How To Combine loopOut + Wiggle Expression
- Create variable for loopOut Expression (loop = loopOut(“pingpong”);
- Create variable for Wiggle Expression (wiggle = wiggle(6,10);
- Create formula to add variables together (loop + wiggle)
- Add -Value to reset the position of the layer (-value)
- loop + wiggle -value (final formula to combine expressions)
