This animation, designed to mimic a real-life black hole, involves the generation of a rotating disk by twisting fractal noise on multiple layers. Distortion is achieved through the implementation of a glow-enhanced circle as a distortion map. Subsequently, stars, a spaceship window, camera shake, and field of view distortion are composited to enhance the realism of the effect. The final touch is applied through Color Grading, culminating in the completion of the animation.
