A simple After Effects effect can go a surprisingly long way.
I wanted to experiment with a liquid-style text animation, so I tried using CC Smear in different ways across individual letters.
Instead of using the same settings everywhere, I used different smear directions and values to create stretches, flows and drips.
Then I added some gradient, glow and a soft background treatment to finish the look.
No third-party plugins, just After Effects and a bit of experimentation.
Here's the final result. đź‘€

What if your motion graphics could react to what's happening around them?
I recreated this proximity-based animation in After Effects, where a moving controller influences the characters around it.
The fun part was taking the basic idea further making the characters move, changing their facial expressions, making the eyes follow the controller, and even adding proximity-based lighting.
It’s a good example of how expressions can turn a simple animation into something much more interactive.
I’ve also recorded the complete tutorial and broken down how I built the effect step by step.

I wanted to move beyond a simple map and turn the location, nearby landmarks, and connectivity into something visually interesting and easy to understand.

A simple concept, but a great way to make real-estate content feel more dynamic.
