    So I need to make it look like a bunch of popcorn is magically floating out of a popcorn bucket. I need to know if there is a way to use 4 different single popcorn images on a transparent background and duplicate them all multiple times to make it look like a bunch is coming out of the bucket, each with a different rotation, direction and speed. I don’t want to set key frames on each individual layer because that would take tons of time with that many layers.

    Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks much!

    Needs to look as if it were really happening, so very real. Thanks

    You could do it with any of several particle plugins. Particular would be your best bet.
