Absolutely brilliant tutorial. Perfect for what I needed, really easy to follow and worked great first time. Thank you so so much!
Thanks man! I'm nearing the end of a project where particle world comes into play; this really covered an effect I was hoping to figure out.
Josh, it is an amazing tutorial, I really enjoy learning, wow! the knowledge that you have, Thank you!
Josh this a wonderful tutorial using for a Class in AE on Particles, Thank You! You are truly amazing!
I spent an entire afternoon trying to figure out a way to orient the particle emitter to the path. You are the ONLY person who thought to include that, in like 3 hours worth of tutorials I watched.
I don't get why nobody but you saw the need to do this, but there it is. ty for this.
I didnt get it how?
Awesome video! I'm a Graphic Design student who's very interested in motion graphics and I love watching your channel to get some inspiration and trying your tutorials myself. Keep doing what you do!
same ayeeee!
Excellent Tutorial! Easy to follow and had fun trying to create a new animated logo!
Your tutorials are amazing !!! Thank you so much
Thanks for the tutorial, I'm really grateful for all the awesome stuff that you teach on the channel! Just a small request though. Can you perhaps try to zoom in on the panels when you adjust and tweak stuff? Even on fullscreen on a fairly large monitor, the interface looks small and cluttered and it can get difficult at times. Keep up the great work!
I likenhos style of no nonsense full speed work along as fast as you can then rewind. Really really helping me learn.
W video. I cant wait to use this on some of my future projects. Thank you for this tutorial!
Thank you so much for this! Amazing tutorial!
Thank you so much! I have learned a lot through you
Exactly what I needed. Thanks 👍🏼
I love this guy - simple ... but clever
Brilliant. That's exactly what I needed
Thank you mate! You're a lifesaver!

Thank u very much... perfect tutorial
Thanx for your video. I really appreciate it.
This helped, thanks a lot!
superb! thank you!
Best tutorials
I dont know you but I love you
Thank you this is very detailed and well presented. Would it be possible then to track a hand movement and then apply particles to that?
Hey! Thank you so much for the video. Fantastic content, you're an awesome teacher!
Just wondering - are your project file downloads still available? The download buttons don't seem to be connected to working links.
Ez pz, thanks 👍
Might wanna check the expression for Z though. Had to mess around with it because the copy/paste one you gave seemed to be firing errors off with that 2 for some reason. Got it working fine though.
Allways the best!)
Hey Josh, really good videos! Loving it! How do you made your name poping in letter by letter effect? I love it! So smooth
First Comment>>>From Egypt !!All my Support
Wow wow! Thank you so mush Bro!
Love this!! Thank you so much!
you can download the project from the link to Google drive and send it to me, please
You are so slick with Ae Man! Ill be hitting you up on the Discord some day when im better at making stuff like you!
Could you use this simulated effect to make fireworks? Im planning on a title similar to this but instead of a path (or in addition to the path) i am going to creat 7 fireworks (1 central, 3 scaled and symetrically palced around the main one)
Kewp the up the BRILLIANT work! Thank you so so much Josh👊
awesome tutorial bro
Thank you so much!
u are the best i only understand ur tutorials
beautiful!
Nice tutorial Joshua (Y) It would be great if you could explain to me what those expressions doing to the properties? Thanks :)
This is a freaking amazing tutorial dude, thank you sooo much. And thank you for remembering to verbally state what keys you push at certain times, like alt click for the positioning. Makes it so much easier to follow.
If I could ask one question, is there a way to add new particle shapes? Like 5 pointed stars and stuff?
Try this: Import the png of the image that you want to be the particle. Drag that png on to the comp and shut the eye off on its layer. Next, Inside of the Effect Controls twirl down "particle" and next to "particle type" choose "textured square". Then twirl down "texture". "Texture Layer" gives you the option to choose the source from your comp to be the particle.
Excellent job
Superb bro!
Thank you so much!
Keep it up!
😍💛🧡🦋👍😱😘💜🌹☘️🌷💚❤️🍦💞♥️
Thank you! 😊🙏
hold alt as you click the icon stopwatch position X, your welcome
thanks bro i wasted my 15 minutes finding the solution
Thanks a million!!
GOSH THANKS
You save the day man!
that's what he said 2:54 Alt click
Thanks bro.you rock...
can you make the particles follow the path and then split off into multiple directions?
MAGIC!!!😍
thanx bro ,, really appreciate
Great. Best particle effect creation without third party / trap code particular /
Amazing!
Thanks, Mr. Quack
AMAZING! thanks for support whit the tutorial
Thanks alot 👌
Thank You 🙏
Thanks a lot!!!!
Great tutorial and channel. My only complain is the is to hard to see the value you input because the letters are so small to see them.
Im a graphic design student and I really like your tutorials I've been following quite a few to help with some projects. But theres some like this where you don't explain how you made the title. I wanted to see how you did the title as well but can't exactly do that if I can't download. On your website after I press download a 404 page pops up.
i followed this tutorial but my particles seem really mashed together and not really spread out like yours..any advice?
Thank You For the Great trick 😍😍😍😍😎😎😎😎😋😋😋😋
You my friend, have earned +1 sub
Thanks for subbing :)
Bless up.. Thanks..
Nice!
Very nice
Hello! The tutorial works fine when the camera is in its default position but when I rotate it to the left along the Y-axis, I can't make the movement work. The particles are good but the lens flare was always off the screen. They were not moving in the same position. Can anyone help how to fix this?
is this possible with trapcode particular > . < thank u sm for all the amazing tutorials !
thankyouuuuu!!!
I LOVE YOU
I do everything right but when I create the new particles layer, and do the particle world, nothing shows up on screen. no particles. I see the layer etc...
thank you sir
Thank you for your amazing tutorial! I have a quick question: am I allowed to copy and paste these expressions into my work project for both commercial and non-commercial use?
Great turorial Josh. Bur when I past the mask path in the position it doesn't.
I really want to buy that pack from CinePunch but can you just clarify if i purchase the extended licence does that mean I can use elements within the pack multiple times for different end products?
Hello Joshua. How to do the logo reveal that comes in the beginning of the video that is the SONDUCKFILM's logo reveal ? Please tell me.
what if my mask change size? and i can't change the size when its pasted in Position
I am not going to remember anything after this tutorial ^_^ i didnt know expression scripts are a big part of AE!
Hey, good video but it is awfully difficult for me to see the text on your screen on a 15.6 laptop. Could you zoom in on them? It would help a lot! Thanks
thanks bro
I wasnt able to do this step regarding the pasting part of the expressions you mentioned .. its actually not pasting not in the effect controls neither on the time line .. please can you tell me what to do in this case
Where did these expressions come from ???? and my project and paths are different! so this video basically works for just this tutorial and not anything else!
Hey! This has been super helpful, thank you so much for making this! I did have another question - is there a way to i.e. draw or import shapes yourself to use as particles?
Yes, select Texture square in particle type
Incredible 😍😍🔥
you can download the project from the link to Google drive and send it to me, please
@@olekksandr the link is in description
@@HasmieMusic after clicking download writes the file will not find
@@olekksandr it's there i believe... If not, report to sounduck film. He made it free
Hey, what if we are creating particle system in case. how will this expression work there?. can you help me on that
You dont need to copy and paste any code you can attach the simulation to the curve just like you attached the null object
Josh, what could be going wrong and my particles (object) doesn't follow the path? Thanks in advance
can u add the key command at screen pls? im not an english native so i try to follow mostly by looking at the screen lol :'D
Hi dear, i was trying to apply your way but it couldn’t be pasted thr expressions on thr xy position (effects) may you help me or suggest another way?
how to add this particles in unity I wonder. It is posible to use in unity like background spark effect ?
:target = thisComp.layer("Null 1");
(target.position[0]-(thisComp.width/2))/thisComp.width
>>>>> How to apply above code into Producer/PositionX? copy and paste didn't work?
How would one do this if the shape consists of more than 5 paths?
Is there an explanation of the Expressions used here? I can't quite fathom it, simple as it is.
you"re basically rapping, thanks for the tutorial
Anyone has a tip for me? I don't seem to get the 'tail', particles are just flying in all directions. Thanks!
I’m using this effect in 2022 it seems the expressions are not working. Can I get some help? Thank yo so much!
Thank you for this tutorial, it was helpful to create a trail. Is it at all possible to animate particles like that to go along a path very slowly, for a full 6 minutes, but have them leave a trail behind them that doesn't vanish, and instead keeps generating particles? When I increase longevity to 700 seconds, and tune velocity, resistance and birth rate to fit the width of my trail, the particles basically become motionless. Is there any way to fix this and make the particles move?
Hey I know it’s 8 months later but you simply need to duplicate your path and connect it
