To create this Futuristic FUI element, I used 5 instances of Red Giant’s Trapcode Mir and composited them together to create a complex network of lines and points.
In order to add depth to the lines and add differing levels of value, I used a fractal map created with the Turbulent Noise effect and adjusted the Z Range parameter in the Fractal section of Trapcode Mir.
You can download the project file to see how it was done.
*Please note:- you’ll need the latest version of After Effects CC (2017) and a copy of Trapcode Mir in order to open the project file. You can download a free trial version of Trapcode Mir here.
