Fractal Noise

[Kevin McQuade]

Hey Dudes,

I would like to create a pink “satin” background for a Father Daughter Ball ad. I know there was a tutorial up recently, but I cannot find it now.

Any help would be appreciated!

I am having a little trouble getting the effect to look like a realistic looking satin sheet. Can anyone give some direction on what effects should be tweaked to acheive the genuine look to the satin?

I have a new composition created in AE with a layer solid which I have applied the Emboss, Fractal Noise, and Colorama effects, and layered in the same order as I just identified them.

Emboss: I have just added this effect as the top layer to get closer to the satin look. I realy havn’t made any adjustments to this effect, as I don’t realy notice any changes in the composition aside from the immediate change when the effect is applied.

Fractal Noise: I have adjusted the Evolution settings to animate the solid, and adjusted the brightness and contrast values to get somewhat close to satin I want.

Colorama: I have simply changed the color to the solid using this effect. Again I have just changed the colors so it give the effect a deeper color with smoother transitions when the solid is animated.

As mentioned the problem I have is that it still doesn’t have the genuine feel to it. It moves like satin, kindof looks like satin, but not realy. What can I do to make it have a more realistic look to it?…I’m a nubie if you didn’t already know.
