This was a project I did over winter break because I wanted to experiment with Trapcode Form, which I haven’t used yet, and I was bored on the last day of winter break. This specific project caught my eye on AETUTS and I thought it would be a good project to put on this blog. This project took my approximately 20min and I made it using After Effects. I first started out by creating a text layer with CAP2013 which I thought was appropriate and then I key framed the title to fade in one word at a time to the music. I then created a Trapcode Form layer and messed around with the number of particles and the randomness. By putting it over a grey layer I was able to make the white letters pop out as the particles and then after adding some wave and Shine it was done. I then had it fade to the CAP2013 picture logo I created. After Effects is still a challenge to me but I plan on using it more and more in these blogs and hopefully get better. I used the music Chimerical dream because I thought it sounded good and had the mystical quality that I was trying to portray through the space like particles. Next video project I would like to incorporate this as an intro because it is one of the projects I’m proud of and at least to me, looks professional.
