In this After Effects video tutorial devoted to Trapcode Particular 2, we will learn how to make an animation with an organic look close to the Cell-Shading (cartoon effect).
- Creating a particle rig using expressions and a null object
- Implementation of random emission parameters (no keyframes used)
- Use of auxiliary particles on Particular, with the new options in version 2
- Establishment of a light setup and adjustment of shading on ??the particles
- Color Grading and Cell-Shading effect through a succession of standard effects
- Improving the quality of the image generated, with downsize
Hi Matt,
Thanks for this great tutorial.
For some reason though, at the beginning when I hook up the xyz position, scale and rotation to the null object and add the wiggle, it makes everything wobble uncontrollably weird (like more so than it's supposed to) and also when it rotates, it's flat and stops the particles from emitting..
When I disable these expressions, it doesn't do it anymore.. really for the life of me can't see what I did wrong, followed that part of the tutorial very closely and re-did about 5 times now..
Any idea what might be causing it?
Thanks for reading.
