A long time ago, I made a tutorial on simulating reflections over a watery surface which I had to revisit recently. I cleaned the project up a bit and now you can use it as a template with your own video. Play around with the displacement map and you can get some interesting results.

This is just in time for me! I'm doing a nature project, and have been playing around with your easy reflections plug-ins and fractal noise, but was having trouble getting it looking just right.
Thanks, Andrew!

All this rain/water stuff lately has got me curious about what you might be working on. I just happen to be working on a project with a rain/water theme right now. I just set up a very similar comp with the letters reflecting in the water. I used CC drizzle for the displacement map and it worked pretty good, but it was missing a little something. Then I see your project.. Fractal Noise!
Aside from that, I was happy to see that my comp was really pretty close to your setup. It feels good to know I might actually be doing it right!

hey Andrew, Could you pls make a tutorial on how to link HD pictures with footage to achieve a zoom in effect. So that one could link your earth zoom to footage and zoom into a scene
Andrew, I sometimes wish I could kiss your mind, especially the prefrontal cortex. You make every fibre in my body rumble which travels down my vertebral column thus giving me thrills and adrenaline rush by %5. You truly are a great man.

Andrew,
Can you put up a sample video with this?
Although I don't own AE, I own all of your products because I can still many of them in Vegas.
I do like to see all that you do with AE and hope that I can purchase it in the future.
Thanks,
Les

Great stuff man, great stuff. It's cool that you look at older tutorials and projects and renew and upgrade them.
Shavkat, look it up on Google. You can find it on several websites

Man, you did it again, pretty cool.
and I need.
Look that I need a tutorial where you can show us to integrate musical notes in a real environment. ie text as if they were flying, but with volume, shadows and reflections, if possible. like balloons, with very soft and slow movements between the objects and people or behind of them.
Thanx a lot AK & VC Team

Thank you, I was looking at that tut. recently and couldn't really apply it to anything, this project file is much more versatile and accepting of changes.
