  • Something like a scatter brush

    Posted by Ae_newuser5588 on October 9, 2007 at 3:34 am

    Hey CC –
    New to AE, so this may be a simple solution. I’m trying to find something in AE that will replicate the kind of effect a scatter brush in Photoshop is giving me – randomized opacity, size, rotation, etc, with a custom shape.

    I’ve checked out the Shatter plugin and it seems to kind of be what I want, but I don’t think it’s exactly it.

    Ideally, I want to explode a solid fill into bunches of pieces (in this case a custom leafy shape) that fly toward the camera in 3D space, with randomized opacity, size, etc.

    Is this asking a lot?

    Take a look at Prticle systems as well

    Shatter isn’t bad either…

    or combine the two
