The only reason for no= t using that is not THINKING of it. :)=C2=A0 I'll check that out too.

Is there any reason why you aren't using the bulge plugin, placing the center a tad under the mustache, cranking up the power with some taper on it and keyframing the center to move from left to right?

Thanks Rachel,

To better understand on the "not enough transform points&= quot;, can you elaborate?=C2=A0 Since that used Mesh Warp, are you sugge= st adding more rows and columns?=C2=A0 (2 and 8 now).

Hi Eric - I=E2=80=99m just catching up here = but my opinion is you don=E2=80=99t have enough transform points (= pos x, y and rotation) to make this look realistic and timing is off - should be faster.

You don=E2=80=99t need fancy plugins for thi= s.

Compositing might also need some thought.

Keep at it - Rachel

As you can see, the smoothness is horrid.=C2=A0 I&= #39;ve tried every suggestion so far here and it is still very jumpy.

That's exactly what I began with.=C2= =A0 :) but then it wasnt smooth so might have to try that again.

I wish there was a way to use a mask as a path except path but keep the object static and just morph with a curved mask.
