In this tutorial I will show you how to use Expression Controls and Control Layers to control other layers. I will be using slider controls and color controls. I will also show you how to use some basic expressions: index, value, and I will show you how to declare variables. This is very useful and it can help you stay organised.

Expressions used:

Size:
controlIndex = thisComp.layer("Control Layer").index
scaleMultiplier = thisComp.layer("Control Layer").effect("Scale Multiplier")("Slider")
value * (controlIndex - index) * (scaleMultiplier /20)

Stroke Width:
thisComp.layer("Control Layer").effect("Stroke Width")("Slider")

Stroke Color:
thisComp.layer("Control Layer").effect("Stroke Color")("Color")
