i wasnt sure if i was allowed to post other sites here, so here are teh steps

Animation of a Fractal Material

Create a New Solid in a New Composition.
Apply Effect > Render > Fractal Noise.
Create the fractal line animation.
And, Apply Color the Material by “Glow”. (Blue)

of course if its ok to post other sites then i can forawrd on more info.

thankyou for your help

This sounds like an Ayato tutorial. If so, consider that English isn’t his first language (I don’t think there’s any such thing as a “fractal line”), so you should try to match the results he gets in the pictures.

Could you post a link, please?

[Dave Jackson]

indeed your right

Did you try searching the COW for “curtains”?

[Dave Jackson]

no i didn’t but i will now, i wanted a disco ball, curtains never came into my head.

The key is to set your Fractal Noise settings up like his, especially unchecking “Uniform Scaling” and setting Scale Height to 10000.

I just created the effect in AE 6.5

Send me a quick email johnny@ckandco.net and I can send you the project, it would be easier for you to just look at it, then try to translate ayato.

When rendering, I would render the Fractal Precomp layer seperately first, with an alpha, then under post-action, use the “import and replace usage”
