Step 1: Setting up the Composition
Create a new composition and name it “Main Comp.” Adjust the width to 1920 and height to 1080. The frame rate and duration can be set according to your preference. In this example, we’ll keep it at 10 seconds.
Step 2: Creating the Text Placeholder
Create another composition and name it “Text Placeholder.” Resize it to 1000 width and 250 height. Enable the title action and use the Rectangle Tool to create a shape. Duplicate the shape and change the color of one to yellow and the other to black. Add the desired text and center-align it. Duplicate the text layer and change the color to create a contrast.

Step 3: Animating the Text Placeholder
Place the text placeholder composition into the main composition. To animate it, we’ll use the Motion Tile effect. Adjust the output width to 260 and the output height to 900. Apply the Tile Center option and set a keyframe at the start of the composition. Move to the end of the composition and zoom out while increasing the Tile Center’s Y position slightly.
Step 4: Applying the Turbulent Displace Effect
To enhance the animation, we’ll apply the Turbulent Displace effect. Adjust the amount to around 40 and keep the size at its default value. This effect adds an organic, flowing motion to the text animation.
Step 5: Adding Rotation for Variation
To further enhance the visual interest, we’ll add rotation to the animation. Set keyframes for rotation at the start and end of the composition. You can experiment with different rotation angles to find the desired effect.

Step 6: Creating the Seamless Loop
By following the previous steps, you should now have a smoothly animated text loop. The motion tile and displacement effects, along with the rotation, create a seamless loop that can be repeated seamlessly.
