Kalle
Thanks for a great and simple example!

Michael – Kalle Thanks for the input!
I will look at the example soon and update!

Yes!
Thanks Todd!

Wow
Thanks
Interesting! I will give it a test as soon as I get to a station with FORM.
In the meanwhile, by “Feed this” you mean Luma Matte? Letting this “turning them off”? Or did i miss something and only when in front of form i’ll get it :)?

I really appreciate your help here! You helped me numerous times in the past.
Good weekend
Adam

Thanks for the quick reply.
I understand what you say, but im trying to figure out how to begin with a shot where the screen is filled with floating squares
and the spherical field is “killing” the squares from the middle…
If that’s what you meant could you please guide me?
Turning them off from the middle as apposed to push the away. I might need to look for a different direction.

Thank you very much!

OK.
So I tried tackling it from a Fractal noise tinted, boxed etc… and went back to particles.
Walter suggested 2 particle systems, and that was a great idea, having a couple more I can create that circle reveal effect. not 100% but nice.
Still if anyone has expression tips in the area, that would be a nice thing to learn!
Good weekend to you all!

Thanks Walter!
Great tip to achieve what I had in mind.
After messing with it for sometime, i realize I was looking for something a bit different. Guess that happens 😛
I am guessing it can be achieved still with particular (where I assign a few different squares as particles)

the look im after is a mosaic of un-even squares in size and color that will cover the screen like tiles

where it takes them around 70 frames do fade from the middle outwards in either a circle shape or a 45 degree wiper direction.

It can be done manually, but due to the pretty common effect and the fact each particle will (hopefully) have it’s own subtle random movement I had to ask in the forum
Again I have attached quick mock ups to illustrate my thought…

BTW With Walter’s tip I got to my first post question, where these squares will emit and push to the corners
(No tile wall and nice circular disappearance)
Thanks all!
Adam

Thanks!
Nice looking script

[Adam Lewen]

Thanks Walter
Unfortunately the script gave me a similar result to what I had. But I did manage to fine a solution that I was happy with.
Analyzing again and changing the 3D track camera to a fixed and specifying my own angle of view (a really wide one worked great :-0 not sure why, I will test to see more results)

But this way I managed to have the colored planes moving with me in a nice manner!

Thanks for replying and I will save this script for future tasks!
