What it is
A 37-minute Blender tutorial by SkywayVisuals that builds a shockwave and fractal energy effect, using a specially textured 3D object with organic motion. The author says the techniques also suit effects like Kamehameha blasts, Rasengans and solar flares, and that the pace is aimed at comprehensive or advanced users.

I am making a wormhole like portal that opens up shrinks and grows for a bit and then dissipates. In the compositor it shows that it is a dark purple color but when I go to render the animation it comes out as black and white and I have no idea what's causing this. I used a youtube tutorial in case you want to comb through it ( [this video] ) (I know it says its for shockwaves, but I'm using it for my purposes) [LINK] as you can see when it renders it loses all color. If you also want to see a picture of my node setup just ask and I'll screenshot it.
Cites Michael · 2017-07 · Blender Stack Exchange · on “Noise texture node is not available”
I am creating a shockwave similar to that in a youtube tutorial, and I want to make it multiple colors (Purple and red), but it seems the noise texture node is not available in compositing, which is EXACTLY what I need. [LINK] Shockwave tutorial: [this video] However, since it's not at my disposal, I need another way of getting this result. Anyone know how to do this? Or, if there is a way to get access to the noise texture itself, I'd appreciate that as well. Anything helps. Thanks!
