  Honeycomb and Vortex effect for Apple Motion

  Posted by Jade Maxwell on November 17, 2011 at 8:03 pm

  Hi! Long time reader, first time posting so bare with me please.

  Anyways, my employer wants me to create an opener for a video using the honeycomb and Vortex transitional effects as seen in Powerpoint 2010.

  Now, I want to recreate it in Apple Motion rather than do it in Powerpoint and record it from powerpoint to have more leeway in terms of changing components. How can I even start to do something like that?

  Or should I just do it in powerpoint and then record it from powerpoint?

  Any help would be appreciated greatly. Thank you!!

  I don’t have powerpoint, so you’d have to show me an example of what that effect looks like before I’d even have a chance at giving advice.

  When you type in your reply look at the options above it. You will see a button with a still camera for stills and a button with a film camera for embedding video. Hope this helps.

  For the honeycome look take a look at this thread: https://forums.creativecow.net/thread/170/869348#869350

  As for the next one take a look at this plug-in called Particle Metrix: https://idustrialrevolution.com/idrplugins/particlemetrix/index.html

  Also take a look at these two Exploding Text tutorials by Andy Neil:
