Activity Forums Adobe After Effects Particular Morphing

  • Particular Morphing

    Posted by Revslide on July 5, 2007 at 7:07 am

    I’ve seen works of particular that morphs from an image(eg: tree) that disintegrates into flying particles and then back into another image(eg; butterfly).

    Here is a link that describes the effect:

    I know how the particular effect works for one object but am completely clueless on how to do it when 2 different objects are used in the scene, especially when you want a designated motion path when the particles are in the middle of morphing.

    If anybody would be kind enough to suggest how to work that out, that would be great and thanks!

    Well, if nobody else is going to weigh in… What if you applied the particle effect to a pre-comp in which your two shots dissolved from one to the next, making sure the dissolve happens when the particles are at their most dispersed? I’ve never done this sort of thing, but if I were going to try, that’s where I’d start.
