Breathtaking piece by Chris Lavelle. It has many parts with totally different looks and feelings. Uses Trapcode Sound Keys to drive Trapcode Particular. The integration between Particular v2's new shading and Lux is shown well.

Very beautiful, how did you make the gradient/light emitting/glowing backgrounds?

[A fan]

Absolutely beautiful. I felt the need to cry watching it...it was touching in ways I cannot describe.

[DJAyzed]

Wow simply amazing, I cannot describe that. Loved the organic stuff at 1:00.
I would love to know how you/he managed the rainbows at 2:27 which were one of my favorite parts.

Oh yeah, it's really captivating, especially the part with the odd organic form from the 1st minute. I'm looking for several days and try to approach this, but in vain: / How is this done exactly ? What main parameters come into play ?
Any way, it's cool, i like it :D
