affinity photo Affinity Photo Equation Filter Video

[Scott Williams]

Hello all. I have decided to start putting up some tutorials on my YouTube channel. As I absolutely love Affinity Photo, I though I would start with that.

So I have created a little video explaining how to create a water ripple effect using the equation filter.

If you like it then please give it a thumbs up as I need all the help I can get

Cheers. Scott.

A nice set of effects. A few comments though.

I would guess that your equations involve sine functions applied to the x-values. I cannot tell because I cannot read the text on the screen. It would help if you were to provide a caption in a larger typesize.

It is a good idea to have your equation in a text file as you do. You copy and paste the text to the filter dialogue. It is easy to modify your text file then re-copy.

Ripples also have a vertical effect which you can implement by applying a sine function to the y-axis. You need to be more restrained here though.

Cheers for the input John.

I may create an improved mark ii version at some point and will definitely add the y-sin
