  forming letters and shapes with sparkle emitters

  Hello,
  Just bought PI3 and was wondering if it’s possible to get sparkles to form letters or shapes? I.e. float up and form a name?

  thanks

  Yes, but you have to think backwards. You can create the letters first with particles, then have them float down. Then after you render, reverse the order of the frames (in another application).

  Use the “area emitter mask” feature to create the particles in the shape of your text.

  Alan.
