how do they do it?
I love the transition visual effect that Dave Werner uses in his website.
The site is Flash based but uses after effects and trapcode, (I think) to create the 3D transition from the home page to any of the different sections. He also uses it in his videos.
Visit https://www.okaydave.com/
Click on any of his sections and the transition. How do I do that?
Thanks in advance

It looks like two animations, with a dissolve between: 1) a simple animation of the position of a bunch of layers 2) a Trapcode Particular (maybe) animation of a bunch of spheres — tweak the settings in TP to get the look of the floating spheres.
The bunch of layers are made up of the photos grouped together into , well, groups. Each group may have been made in PS, or each group may be a comp with photos in it.
The pictures do not *become* the spheres: it’s just a dissolve. Keep clicking between Home and another page, or relaoding the main page and you’ll see.
Anybody else?

Seems that there are a few layers of multiple images spread out randomly (i would image created in Photoshop). These layers zoom in (3d camera along z axis, or scale) while blurring and becoming opaque) the bubbles could be achieved by a simple solid with a circle mask, feathered and add a glow effect. Maybe Particular to generate multiples instances. Just my two cents. Definitely cool though. I just wish he didnt use the generic flv player skin on his left column videos.

The bubbles were created with one of Particular’s standard presets. I’ve used them in a couple of spots as well.
