Repeat shapes with Radio Waves

“

- [Instructor] In this movie we'll accompany the logo build with some custom repeating shapes using the radio waves effect. So I'm playing to you what we've managed to create so far. I'm going to pause the playback and we are going to create a new solid. So make sure nothing is selected in the timeline and then go to the layer menu and choose new solid. I'm going to name this guy radio waves, because this is the effect that I'm going to use. Now the color doesn't really matter so choose anything you like, but make sure to use this button and create a comp size solid. I'm going to say okay and now I'm going to effect, generate, and apply the radio waves effect. Now by default if I'm going to go to the beginning we can see that it is creating those radio beams effect. Those are basically particles so we can actually define this shape, this particle shape, instead of using the polygon to use an after effect native mask. What I would like to do is actually use the inner u shape over here…
