The obvious use is in motion, but they can be used on animated properties of any kind. They're applied with an After Effects-ish palette that can be docked, so it's very easy to use.
A while back, Flash guru Robert Penner created a suite of extremely useful easing equations that have been used to build thousands of websites worldwide. These equations were adapted to work as expressions in After Effects. One advantage of using an expression for easing is that the keyframes are editable. You can drag objects in the comp viewer, or move keyframes in the timeline, and the easing will be updated immediately. Usage Simply select the properties that you wish to add expressions to, choose the type of easing from the popup menu, whether it should be "in", "out", or both and click Apply. Types of easing Regular easing (from most to least dramatic) Expo, Circ, Quint, Quart, Quad, Sine Special types Back, Bounce, Elastic A good article is to be found at: http://provideocoalition.com/index.php/cmg_blogs/story/ease_and_wizz/ KeywordsScriptUI Panels(Min.
