Hi all,

A client has asked me = to recreate this shutterstock image as an animation such that the streaks o= f light are flying out from the point where they converge.

I'm using fractal noise to create horizontal lines, but I'= m really struggling to come up with a way of warping those lines into that = shape.


I've pl= ayed around with all the warping effects but don't seem to be getting c= lose to what I'm after in any kind of neat way.

I feel like I'm missing something really obvious as I don't usual= ly struggle to recreate abstract imagery like this in AE, but it has been a= long day!

Any help much appreciated!
