- Here's a method that'll work with only one object, no morphing and no image
- maps. It produces radiating, concentric rings that will hypnotize you if you
- watch for too long.
-
- 1) Create a disc with a radius of 500mm and about 50 points.
- 2) Use Bevel: Inset=6mm and Shift=0mm. Cut out the inner disc - it's not needed.
- 3) Clone the resulting ring 30 times, with a Scale factor of .9 (that's
- point-nine) for all axes. This produces your concentric rings.
- 4) In Layout, leave Keyframe 0 as-is, and create a new key at around frame
- 25 or 30. Set the Scale factor for this frame to 1.1111.
- 5) Now make a preview. Watch the hypnotic rings expand! You are getting
- sleeeepy . . .
