1:10
is to create a new composition hit
1:12
Control Plus and or this little icon
1:14
here for creating a new composition and
1:17
I will do 90 20 by 1080 full HD
1:21

1:23
name I will rename it to waves map
1:27
uh duration maybe to around eight
1:30
seconds hit OK and also uh right click
1:34
here in our waves map to create a new
1:36
solid layer okay I will rename it map
1:40
also 9020 by 1080 hit okay find here in
1:44
the facts and preset effects effect
1:46
radio waves drag and drop onto our map
1:51
player and now it's time to make a few
1:53
adjustments here on our radio waves
1:56
effect uh as you can see we have already
1:59
uh these waves effect for this color I
2:03
will do a white color for this uh
2:06
expansion go to around nine and of
2:09
course for the end and start with go to
2:13
around 100.
2:15
okay now when we hit zero as you can see
2:18
we have this uh really cool a circle
2:21
waves okay our next effect is going to
2:24
be a caution blur drag and drop on top
2:27
our map layer and for the blurriness go
2:31
to around maybe 90 or so
2:35
and now as you can see we have this map
2:39
for our future effects okay our next
2:44
step is to create a text composition and
2:47
also another a full HD composition uh so
2:51
I will close this effects control for
2:53
now hit on this little icon and I will
2:56
rename it to this a new account from
2:58
comp 1 to waves and just hit OK and also
3:03
it's time to drag and drop our waves map
3:05
into our wave's composition like so and
3:09
here in our waves we will create also a
3:13
text composition hit here and for the
3:15
width I will do a 850 for height 150
3:21
and then I will rename it from comp 1 to
3:25
text or one and then hit enter on your
3:28
keyboard
3:29
also it's time to create our text hit
3:31
Control Plus t or go here on horizontal
3:34
type tool and I will type random text
3:36
waves
3:38
align it here to the center this is
3:41
really important I'm using this
3:42
monsterat black font to a 200th height
3:46
and now drag and drop our text or one
3:49
here in our waves composition like so
3:53
also we will add a few effects here on
3:57
our waves text go to effects and preset
3:59
and type here
4:01
motion tile like so drag and drop onto
4:04
our text o1 and for the output width and
4:07
height a type 900.
4:10
like so
4:12
and now when we hit zero we have
4:14
something like this
4:18
okay now it's time to create our
4:20
adjustment layer here in our base waves
4:22
composition right click and then choose
4:24
here adjustment layer and for this
4:26
adjustment layer I find here in effects
4:29
and preset caustics effect drag and drop
4:32
onto our adjustment layer and also we
4:35
will do a few adjustments here for
4:36
surface color you can choose from white
4:39
or black I will do also white for now
4:42
one thing we have forgotten to do is to
4:45
create our background right click and
4:47
then go here to pick our solid and I
4:50
will just type BG or background and type
4:54
here
4:55

5:14
this water surface go from none uh here
5:17
to waves map also a turn off the
5:20
visibility of our map player however
5:23
only using it as a map so we don't need
5:26
to see him and now when we hit zero we
5:28
have something like this what we can do
5:30
also is to crank up the smoothing from 5
5:34
000 to around 50 000 and now as you can
5:38
see we have better results also for
5:41
refractive in the index instead of 1.2
5:44
go to maybe one point
5:46
one or so and now as you can see we have
5:50
this really cool wavy animation here in
5:53
our uh waves composition also what we
5:57
can do for our background layer to maybe
5:59
change our color from dark gray to a
6:02
pure black and now we have also better
