Trick: If you have a pool, place this animated gobo plane over the pool water surface, stretch the plane over the entire surface but fix UVs if stretched.
This will cast a nice pool caustics shadow into the pool without any complex calculations.

Then, use the spot light to cast caustics onto nearby wall surfaces as if the caustics are reflecting off the pool. But make sure the spot light isn’t brighter than the sun, you should only see it in the shadows.
