Fields

Mograph Ripple Loop with Fields

Add a Plane: width and height 700cm
Create Spline Rectangle: width and height 4.5cm → Tick Rounding , Radius 0.5cm → Plane: XZ (Rotate the rectangle if it’s not perpendicular to the plane)
Add Extrude, parent above rectangle (hold Alt) →
In Extrude menu, Object → Direction → Custom → Movement: 0,25,0 → Make the extrude rectangle editable (C)
Add Cloner, parent above Extrude → Grid Array, Count: 50,1,50 → Mode: Endpoint, Size: 600cm,200cm,600cm
Select Cloner layer →
Add Plain Effector: Position: 0,0,20 ; Scale: 1.25,1.4,0 → Color Mode: Fields Color
→ Falloff → Torus Field → Radius 0cm (set keyframe of radius to 242cm), Thickness 25cm
Back to Plain menu, Click Clamp → add Delay (for ease in/out) and Decay (make the movement linger)
Remark: The descending order has to be Decay > Delay > Torus Field
Back to Cloner → Random Effector → Parameter: Position 0,0,5cm ; Scale 0.13, Uniform →
Falloff → Torus Field → same setting as in Plain Effector
→ Falloff → Decay, Layer → Effect Strength: 84%

Make the Animation loopable:
Duplicate Plain and Random layers 4 times → offset Plain 1-4 and Random 1-4 by 50 frames (5:00-6:00)
Put all in the Clone effector box:
