    Photoshop Styles are not fully supported, it’s as simple as that. You can manually build any kind of light glows as shown in the video. For soem tricks and techniques, check my lensflare tutorial here at the COW and study the project files that come with it.

    I have a behind the scenes video on the Zoom launch and they said they made it with Particular in AE probably using the the grid/layer function.

    I think I understood you just fine. Nobody stops you from flattening/ rasterizing a PS layer and importing it. In addition to that, you can re-create almost all styles using effects and a little imagination. Check my homepage for some examples. The repeating of the light blips is done using Particular on a layer grid emitter which by itself is based on a animated texture in a pre-comp – very obviously. Download the demoe or Particular and study the help and presets to get an idea how to use custom particles in that manner.
