Wave/Wipe Transition Effect
I’m going to attempt to explain this as best I can.
At my local AMC theater, before the movie starts they play ads and clips and behind the scenes featurettes on upcoming movies. The main presentation takes place on a grid. I’m hoping that some of you will have something similar at your local AMC theaters. In between each of the clips there is a transition that looks like a sine wave that drives a card wipe transition of some sort. Each segment of the grid is “propelled” to flip by the force of the sine wave.
I’m trying to recreate something similar with displacement mapping and a card wipe but I can’t seem to get it to look right.
For anybody out there that might know what I’m talking about, if you have any ideas I’d be thrilled to hear them.
Thanks again! Keep up the good work!

i dont want to oversimplify this, but wouldn’t doing a card wipe to your liking FIRST, THEN animating a wave using any number of plug ins or bezier mesh tools do the trick? I know forge freeform will do the wave with displacement as well. I never seem to get good results with the displacement plug in.
good luck

It’s always good to look at things from a different perspective.
Thanks for the suggestion, I appreciate it.
