Hasta La Motion!

Absolutely loving Nuke so far, having only had a brief and traumatic experience with After Effects before. But I’m struggling to work out a few things and was wondering if anyone more experienced could give me a few tips.

Probably easiest if I explain what I’m trying to do:

I’m working on a mockup of a game for an android phone and I have an effect, constructed out of a few nodes, that I’m using for the user tapping the screen.

It works fine when I key each part of the effect manually for each user tap, but what I would like to be able to do is re-use this effect in an efficient fashion – eg group the nodes together, duplicate and move, and then just pipe in a trigger signal as it were which essentially triggers the playback of a predefined set of anims on the groups internal node parameters.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks in advance for any help!
