It is going to be fun trying some variations on this - and I have some perfect background to try it on too. Thanks Michael - plenty of great tips throughout this tutorial!
We've done this technique before in a post or two but haven't done a tutorial on it. People have mentioned wanting tutorials on it before, now we know we really should do it!
Hi Michael, great video! I'm trying to recreate this with a different dancing animation, i'm exporting the animation in c4d exactly the way you told us. When choosing the 3d model in designer only the first frame rendered. Please guide what mistake i m doing.
Is it possible to add these particles to a person that's been key'd or roto'd out? I'm looking to add some sort of trail to someone running and I'm not sure what exactly to look up to accomplish that
Yes! We've poked Michael about making a tutorial for making particles come from footage and he'll likely cover several ways to do it. This example uses footage to drive the particles: facebook.com/31164076610/posts/10158479517676611/ And this example cheats: facebook.com/watch/?v=157493680433856
Love particular. I just wonder if you can somehow use the model you used as an emitter as a mask in the footage? I rendered an Animation with Redshift. Want to add particles in Post, but so far didnt find a way to import the 3D Model as a "Mask".
You can use AOVs in Redshift to get mattes based on any model (or material) in your scene and then you can use that as a layer emitter or as a matte - depending on what you're trying to do.
Hi, I have simulátor problém that others where asking, where i put my first obj to the models its not animating and it’s still image. I have the nesestupuje versions and also námět it as the recommendations in comments and it is still not working.. Could you help please?

@@MaxonRedgiant Hi I was wondering this too, same thing happened to me. The frames were named like this "Object Flyby 05_0000.obj", "Object Flyby 05_0001.obj", "Object Flyby 05_0003.obj"... etc But it only loads the first frame.

@@MaxonRedgiant Hi, thanks for the response. I did eventually get it to work. I made the filename shorter and eliminated spaces and it seemed to do the trick. However it is not rendering my actual camera view?? Its a different view that renders and I can't figure it out?
Try importing the sequence into AE manually and see if AE recognizes it as a sequence. If it does, try putting it into your composition and reference it as your 3D emitter.

Thank you Michael & Red Giant!
Wow nice great tutorial. Thank you Red Giant.
Oh wow nice, Thank you Red Giant, you are the best and the best developer! ❤
You even showed some great new features. Makes it even easier to create rain videos.

Glad to hear it! Please make sure you tag us when you share your results. We love to see what people make with our tools and tutorials.
Great 🔥
Great tutorial. Would love to see if this could be done with real footage.

@@nelsontaylor9165 Understood! We'll give Michael an extra poke.

Hi excellent effect and tutorial. Thank you for uploading it.
Sorry which version of TC Suite you got?
This works in the most recent version as well as the version that came out just before this tutorial released.
Brilliant as always! What's that layer colour labeler plugin you've got going there?
Michael is using Labels 3 to color his labels and keyframes.
is there any way you guys can make a tutorial on zordon effect using particular?
Please make mores advanced vfx tutorials like those days. I remember those Aquaman tutorial days years before!!

Yes!

This example uses footage to drive the particles: facebook.com/31164076610/posts/10158479517676611/

OBJ Sequence also doesn't work - just imports as a single file
Please contact our support team - it should be working!
Can you share the obj sequence
I was hoping to see rotoscope layer from a real dancer video footage
Me too
That's a great idea for a future tutorial! There are a few ways to do it. We'll poke Michael about doing one of those soon.
Yeah, you can even make yourself vanish with those particles

can particular read depth map as control layer to control emitter density? or particular size?
You can control size with a depth map, yes. With Form behaviours in Particular, you can control many features of particles with layer maps.
Hi,
I have simulátor problém that others where asking, where i put my first obj to the models its not animating and it’s still image. I have the nesestupuje versions and also námět it as the recommendations in comments and it is still not working.. Could you help please?
Hello! Please file a support ticket at support.maxon.net so our team can look into the issue.
OK, what am I doing wrong with my OBJ sequence?
Particular only loads in my first frame and not the complete animation sequence.
How is your obj sequence named?

@@MaxonRedgiant Trapcode Suite 2023.4.0 and AE 2023 but not the beta version the normal maybe is AE trouble?
