The easiest way to do this is to parent everything to a null which is at the centre of your comp.

So for example, if I rotated each layer individually, it would rotate around the center of the comp. (I don't actually plan to rotate them, but I do need them to have their anchorpoint centered to the comp). Is there any easy way to do this (aside from by hand or using nulls?)
