Hi Umar, no tutorial is planned for this effect but take a look in the Download section and you'll find an example in this download.

I figured you used the mirror option in Form. I was trying to recreate what you did the other night, and moving the strings was the only thing I wasn’t able to figure out. Thanks so much for your wisdom and your talent, JD!

The text was duplicated, blurred and then masked. The duplicate was placed behind the main text and uses the Add blend mode. No Glow effect was used.

To move the strings I animated the Flow Evolution and Flow X, with a Displace setting of around 145. The reflection of the Form was created using Form’s Mirror setting and Offset setting.

is it just the glow effect?

How’d you get it to look like they’re dancing strings? Did you animate the fractal strength?? Also…the reflection of the strings…did you do the same thing you did with the reflection of the text…did you just flip the strings?

The lines are created using the Strings setting. The thick and thin variations were created using a string “density” of 29 and and a “Size Randomness” of 44 . No other effects were applied.

Love the Trapcode Form effect. Very cool. The thin blue lines and the larger blurry blob were both created with Form??? Did you add any other effects to make the blob look gaseous, like Fast Blur?
