This is a follow up tutorial of my video on animating anime style leaves and foliage. In this tutorial, I am showing how to animate 2d anime style grass field using After Effects. The effect filters I used in After effects are CC Bend It and Turbulent Displace. They are default filters that came pre-install with AE.
