What’s better than 2D particles? 3D!
Particle Illusion 2021 gives you the option to emit particles in 3D with just one simple click. Transform any of the thousands of emitters in seconds and bust open your creative options.
The 2021 release also features a new built-in 3D camera with user-friendly controls. Navigate through generated particle fields using target, position, pan, and orbit modes, new 3D orthographic views, and an off-axis isometric world view with a visible floor grid.
Using the plugin version inside After Effects? Use AE’s host camera to enable easier integration into your 3D scenes.
Connect your particles together with lines to create fresh new geometric mograph looks.
Quickly join particles to parent emitters, birth position, or even to other particles. Transform any emitter into a brand new animation by selecting multiple connection options or by tweaking line opacity, color, and thickness.
Get ready for the most organic and complex looking particles without any hassle.
Turbulence gives users control over the position and size of particles through auto-evolving noise fields. Think subtle wave-like motion, wild particle scatters, or anything in between.
Bounce, crash, boom! Easily create more convincing particle collisions.
Particle Illusion’s deflectors now have a randomness option that allows particles to bounce much more realistically than before, and if you’re looking to add that extra layer of wow, set your particles to break apart when they hit a deflector.
Creative inspiration at your fingertips.
Each new Particle Illusion release includes a collection of professionally-designed particle emitters that show off new features. Search for the new 2021 emitters fast using the Particle Illusion list or library views, by tags, or manually browse through all installed libraries to find the perfect emitter. And don’t forget to star your favorites to easily find them later!
Want to see emitters in action? View Emitter Sample Library
Particle Illusion comes with thousands of preset emitters (via a separate free installer). An integrated search makes it easy to zero in on the effect you’re looking for, and the real-time preview lets you click and drag to see how it will move. Use as-is or adjust the position, shape, life, number size, etc. by scrubbing values in the control panel. Create new presets too by saving any adjusted emitter back into your custom emitter library!
