    Hey ppl,

    I want to animate a growing bunch of paper money – but I absolutly don’t know how to do this. Hopefully there is a possability to use a particel emulator or something else. I don’t wanna animate every piece of paper itself. 😉

    Thanks for reply.

    If you could be a bit more specific I’m sure some one can get you on the right track.
    Do you want it to grown from below up like a pillar or falling from above to make up a heap etc.?

    You can use Particular for that, but as the previous poster mentioned- what kind of animation you want to achieve? A bit more specific – an example from YouTube maybe would help.

    Hey,

    yeah – sry. Here some more specific details:

    The paper money shall fall down from the top of the window onto the ground. There it should stay and a little “mountain” should develope. (let’s say about 50 pieces of paper money)
    It should be different pieces of paper money. (10$, 50$ etc.)

    I don’t have an example from youtube – sorry.

    Hopefully these informations are enough.

    I believe I saw a tutorial on the web that uses our product FreeForm in conjunction with Particular to this kind of thing with money. In a nutshell, you would create an animation in a pre-comp with the FreeForm on a scan of you favorite currency then use that sequence as a Particle in Particular. Do a Google search for the tutorial.

    HTH.

    Cheers,

    I think found it: https://ae.tutsplus.com/tutorials/motion-graphics/money-makes-the-word-go-round/
    Money makes the world go around

    Thanks a lot for this – I just have one problem: I want the money to fall down onto a bunch papermoney. And this “mountain” shall slightly get higher and higher the more money is falling down to it.

    I think I have to cheat this, eh?!

    Yes. – you would control that part of the effect in Particular.
