Moving Water – Trapcode Form Preset
Les (aka pentool) has created a nice preset for Trapcode Form based on the Swimming Pool preset. He “used a 480×320 comp. Presets are set to a 5 second seamless loop. Takes about 5 minutes to render a 5 second loop on a 2.4G dual core. ” Download the Moving Water preset here, at Toolfarm’s Expert Forums. Thanks Les!
Here is an example of the preset.

Plug-In Post Q+A: Tradcode’s Peder Norrby
Michele Yamazaki, Peder Norrby and Ko Maruyama (and Jim G. hiding in the back)
Studio Daily interviews Peder Norrby, Trapcode’s founder and developer. Read the interview here.
Peder says, “There is also a business-perspective: our goal is for our customers to wow their clients and make more money using the products than the cost of the products themselves, so it is turns out to be a very good investment for them. Good investments are always popular, and news of them tend to spread.” So, that’s his secret!
