  rainfall from above

  Posted by Calla Leonard on June 6, 2010 at 7:29 pm

  I have been searching for a tutorial on how to create particles that look similar to rain that would fall from the camera view (view from above). I am unable to find a tutorial that doesn’t include expensive plug ins. Can anyone help me with this? Here is an example of what I am looking for, however I do not require as high of detail as shown here because this tutorial uses the tradecode particular plug in. https://rhys-works.com/vfx-tutorials/rain-over-water-tutorial

  Any help would be appreciated, many thanks!

  Well- you did not look hard enough it seems- you have on the same site a great tutorial that explains how to do particles with expressions in AE, no extra plug-ins required:

  Also, a lot of stuff you do with Particular can be done with CC Particle World which comes free with AE.
