O.O?

Right, the computer (after effects) did most of the work while I set the keyframes, although I'd say it's rather daunting either way.

I do think you're uunderestimating yourself if you think you're unskilled.

I don't think it could get any more accurate than that, that's exactly how it's done. I rather liked hearing the phrase "tween the hell out of it until it looks sexy", haha. Thank you for the positive feedback.

Thanks apollo. You're right about it being relatively simple after using it for a bit.

Here are a few screenshots of the procedure to help clear up any further mind blowing.
