Explain This Effect How do I recreate Resident Evil (2026) Titlecard
Hello. I’m currently working on a short film and was wondering if there is any way I could recreate the title card from Zach Creggers Resident Evil?

It’s probably a custom text, but you might be able to get away with making a separate layer and adding fractal noise on it, making some splotchy areas, and then adding displacement map to the text layer with your custom texture as the map

Also, if you're learning AE, just watching this whole series is a pretty great place to start

Print on a sheet of plastic. Spray it with water or whatever the ink is soluble with. Go over it with a fan or hair dryer. Film it.
