Nik Kottmann | Create Looping VFX Animation with Blender! @BlenderDaily | Uploaded October 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Learn how to create a visual effects shot that loops seamlessly. I demonstrate the whole process from start to finish. The main part of the tutorial is done in Blender, but I also used After Effects and Photoshop. They are not necessarily required though, as I also present free alternatives.
