Hi all! Looking for way to create an animated version of this image. Smooth, clean wavy motions, with some colour changes. Any ideas? Need it asap.

About a million ways to do something like that but none of them are a single effect. My first thought was to apply fractal noise to a solid, change Fractal Noise>Transform>Scale to something like 1400%, add an expression to Fractal noise>Transform>Rotation like: time * 90; then add an expression to Fractal noise>Transform>Offset Turbulence to move the noise pattern on the X-axis like: [time * 100, value[1]; This saves me adding keyframes and is easy to adjust for slower or faster evolution.

This gives me a big animated grayscale noise field. You can apply Colorama to give it some color, then pre-compose so that It can be used as the source for CC Blobbylize applied to a white layer. A little adjustment of the Blobbiness>Cutaway and some softness will give you something like this:
You can play with the settings and Colorama to give you some softer or harder edges and edit the Fractal Noise settings to give you a simpler look.
Just one approach of dozens that I can think of.
Another is to use Turbulent Displace, but I don't have the time to play with that one right now.
