Aged Film look with Particular

Published by Cameron King on August 4th, 2010 - in After Effects, Trapcode Particular

Here is a nice tutorial on creating that aged film look using Trapcode’s Particular. Save it as a preset and reuse it over and over again. Here

Now that I’ve spread the love a little bit, I will introduce myself.  My name is Cameron King.  I love After Effects and all the things it brings to the storytelling process. I love it so much, I started an After Effects group in Washington DC. I will be posting tips, new tricks, old tricks, and basic AE knowledge on this site from time to time.  I come from a video editing background, so I will approach my posts from a motion picture editor’s view. I hope you enjoy and use After Effects to it’s greatest potential.

You can find my personal website here.

Happy learnings!

In case you missed it, Harry Frank recently showed how to make Trapcode Particular‘s particles dance using Trapcode Soundkeys. Check out the tutorial at Harry’s site or over at Red Giant TV.

If you just gotta have more you can download Video Copilot’s free “Particle Animation to Music” project file. You’ll need After Effects CS4 and Trapcode Particular 2. The music is not included but you’ll be able to get a closer look at Andrew Kramer’s keyframes and amazing Particular settings.

Tutorial: Use Expressions to Speed up Text in AE

Harry Frank has a video up at Studio Daily about Using expressions to speed up lower third creation in After Effects. He explains how to create a document that links to the text document with corresponding scene numbers… a very cool way to speed up simple but tedious work. It’s not difficult, but this is definitely not something you’d figure out yourself, unless you’re a javascript programmer, or a whiz with expressions.

Also, Harry’s Complete training for Trapcode Particular from Class on Demand is half price this week. (DVD | Download), during our One Day Sale. Also, if you haven’t heard, Trapcode Suite is 50% off today only!

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!
