We no longer see a wiggle, as the Slider is now controlling how many times a second the text wiggles. Click the stopwatch to create a keyframe at the beginning, then move the playhead further in time and change the amount for the Slider to increase the wiggle.
You can turn on motion blur to enhance the effect. Now you know how to create a wiggle expression in After Effects and how to control it using a null and an expression slider effect — a huge timesaver. What After Effects expressions do you rely on?

Just drag and drop the wiggle presets directly to your layer and see if you like the movement and controls. If you want to see a preview of the wiggle presets please check the behaviors presets page. Another alternative to make a wiggle animation without using expression is to use the Wiggler tool.
Another alternative to avoid wiggle expression is to use plug-ins below is a list of plug in that have wiggle options with controls. Wants to learn more about after effects expressions? I recommend checking out the websites below.

This case it move 5 time in 1 second The 2nd Number 10 define the how much it will move up and down this case 10 pixels Here is a Wiggle animation example based on the setting wiggle 5,10 Apply a Wiggle Expression in After Effects?
Control the start and stop of the wiggle expression. For this, you can take the assistance of the Wiggle utility feature in After Effects. It can be used to implement effects like camera shake, light effect, vibration, and so on.
In nutshell, Wiggle is an inbuilt JavaScript utility in After Effects that can be used to scale, rotate, move, or adjust any layer in a random fashion.
The complete syntax for using the wiggle command is as follows:. Though, in most cases, we only deal with the frequency and amplitude of the object that makes the syntax as follows:.
Here, the frequency would be the number of times you want an object to be moved while its amplitude would denote how much it can move up and down in the frame. The first parameter in the Wiggle utility is for the frequency value.
Here, you can see how the change in the frequency value and make the object move around. Furthermore, if we change the amplitude of the value in the Wiggle command, then it can make the object move accordingly.
It will have the following effect and would make the object move randomly. At first, you can just place different layers at the timeline in After Effects. Select any layer to edit and press the P key to view its position parameters.
Click on the Stopwatch icon to get the transform position feature on the side. This would let you customize the shake effect results in After Effects. There you go! Wiggle 2,40 will make a layer shake dramatically, but slow.
Wiggle 10,3 will make a layer dart around quickly without moving too much in any one direction. Optional: Adjust the frame rate of your composition.
If you only want the frame rate to affect your wiggling object, create a pre-comp containing the wiggling layer s and adjust only that frame rate.
