using the 1920 by 1080 resolution at 30 frames per second the first step is to import this earth map image into the project you can download it from the link in the description grab this image and place it onto this comp icon it will create a new composition with the same dimension as this earth map now go to the effects and the presets and here search for the CC ball action apply it onto the layer and let's adjust a few settings first change grid spacing to 10 and then change the ball size value to 7 now make a duplicate of this layer and then right click on it go to the layer styles and select stroke but this is not what we wanted let's remove this CC ball action from this layer and yes this can work now expand this blending options and then advanced blending here change the fill value to 2% now open this stroke and change the color to white also change the stroke size value to 2 cool minimize all layers then switch back to the main composition and then get back to the project window here place this earth map comp into the timeline again go to the effects and the presets and here search for the CC sphere apply it onto the layer and it's time for some changes first increase the radius value to 450 then open this shading option and change the ambient value to 100 cool this looks good to me now let's animate it open this rotation option and I am going to use rotation why value to add some rotation make sure you are at the first frame and then make sure to change the rotation Y value to zero now add a keyframe on it then go to around 10 seconds forward and change this first value to 1 if your science is strong you can apply some exact rotation to it just like the real Earth but I have no idea about it so I am doing some random adjustment cool now our animation should look like this let's rename this layer as Earth map inside now make a duplicate of it and call it earth map outside select this outside layer and here change the render value to outside let's select this inside layer and change its render value to inside cool now go to the effects and the presets and search for the fast blur effect apply it onto the earth map inside layer and then increase the blur value to 10 here we have this nice looking depth of field kind of look cool let's add some more elements to it open this earth map comp and create a new solid here I'm calling it particles make sure it has the white color again go to the effects and the presets and this time search for the CC starburst apply it onto the layer and change the size value to 20 cool switch back to the timeline and now our animation looks like this let's make another duplicate of it and we will call it huge I am also changing the render value to full for it let's increase the radius value to a higher number and make another duplicate of it I am increasing the radius of it as well [Music] this looks ugly to me let's go to the effect and the presets and search for the simple choker and apply it onto the layer change the choker value until you have the same look as you are watching here now select this effect and copy it select this bottom layer and paste it here you can also adjust the opacity value to make these lighter do the same with this layer as well cool this looks good to me now create a new adjustment layer and call it glow make another duplicate of it and call it cc go to the effects and the presets and search for the hue and saturation apply it onto the layer and click on this colorize box it will allow us to add some colors to it just tweak some settings and you are good to go you are free to use any color you want I am using this fire orange color but you can use some neon color as well let's place this CC layer below this glow layer and then select this glow layer now go to the effects and the presets once again and search for the glow effect apply it onto the layer and let's adjust a few settings I am changing glow threshold to 65% and glow radius to 30% Ram preview this and our animation is complete I'll see you next week thanks for watching this tutorial have a good day [Music] now you can download premade After Effects templates sound effects stock
