  Dynamic BG

  Posted by Ayoife Oni on July 19, 2016 at 2:05 pm

  Hello,

  I am having some trouble using CC Particle World & Trapcode Particular to create a BG like this one in the link. I have tinkered for days with no luck. Any help is appreciated.

  Thanks.

  Here’s the link:

  Also tried to create the Particle effect with Trapcode Form but no cigar. Guess I’m somewhat limited in skill.

  Thank you.

  Here’s a link to an excerpt of the Particular help file concerning custom particles:

  https://gtmediaproductions.com/tony/RedGiant%20Trapcode%20Plugins%20for%20CS5%20%5BDarkman%5D/Red.Giant.Trapcode.Particular.v2.1/Documentation/support_files/particle_custom.html

  The main background of slowly spinning particles could be created with either custom particles as described in the help file, or by using pre-comped movie files of spinning triangles as the particles.

  As you have admitted to being limited in skill I would suggest searching for Particular tutorials. The clouds of particles could definitely be done in Form so look for tutorials for it as well.

  Good luck.

  Worked like a charm.

  Thanks for the link.

  Applied your advice, tweaked a little here & there, & voila, we’re in business.
