Animate the Evolution property of the Fractal Noise plugin and the Offset property on Y. Precomp that layer and use it as a displacement map and it creates decent heat haze/fire looking movement.

Does anyone have a good technique for animating fire?  I am not looking for a process to create fire, but a good animation technique to create the movement of fire. I want to take a vector-based graphic and animate it.

 

Thanks!
