Advanced Connect Shape Workflow with Data Points in Cavalry - FUI Design

In this tutorial, I will show you how to make FUI type of design, all animated from a single Noise layer. This is a bit complex set up, but I will walk you set by step through the whole workflow. You will learn how to use Duplicators inside other Duplicators, we will use Index Context, Connect Shape, Number Range to Color nodes, Expressions and even Logic and Comparison nodes. This whole tutorial is more like a mini project.
