Starlings Study 02 - flocking using Trapcode Particular

Continuation of Starlings Study 01

This time I used the "Sprite" particle type with a 20x50 px comp as particle; a small triangle. I used Orient to Motion to make the triangles point in their direction of flight. The number of particles was set down to about 4K.

Custom Particles

2009 has been a great year for messing around with Form.  I've created a few simple particles in cinema 4d that I've used in my form experiments as well as a few commercial jobs that I'd like to share.

Most of the quicktimes have alpha channels and are loopable, perfect for particular or form.
