overlaid fx tracks and motion....

I have a track I need to "shack and tilt" for an effect. But I have to put on fire and smoke, and explosions on top of it too. Is there a way to move them all identically based on the main track? I'm thinking I should edit and render that part sperately, then bring it in and move it about.
Ideas?

Two ways. The first is to animate the first track in your track motion, then copy/paste those keyframes to the other tracks.

The second way is to make all the tracks child to a main track & use the parent track motion to move them all at once.

I've tried and failed at the child thing... I'll look into that more.
Thanks for the ideas

Do a help search for "parent track". It's easy once you read up on it.
