IMPORTANT UPDATE: At 2:00, the video says to add a "CC Composite" effect. In AE 2024, this effect no longer works to expand the particles. Instead, use a "Calculations" effect.

Thought I was stupid 😆 so glad you pinned this awesome tutorial 7 years going!!!

This is the first tutorial I have seen that actually explains what all those different settings in Particle Systems mean. Most people just say the numbers they use without really explaining what they really mean, so thank you for that explanation!

I started from zero knowledge of After Effect and followed your steps. It worked so well. Thanks for explanation and demonstration. I'll adjust the techniques and improve my skills. This is the most WORTH watching on KZread ever!!!

I've used this effect about 10 times and always forget how to do it. This video is amazing. Repeat viewer!!

There are some good tutorials out there, but what makes yours great is that you explain what you're doing, and why, and what the different settings do, instead of just giving us settings and values to punch in. Thank you, I really appreciate that! Keep doing what you do, I feel like I've learnt more in the past 20 minutes than I have since I started using After Effect. :)

Dito. The "why's" are, in my view, more important than the" Hows" Keep up the good work, and thanks for the help

Thank you for explaining what the functions/options mean as you were creating this. Most tutorials tell you to do this and that and not explain what they do. I am taking notes on stuff as I do different tutorials, so I appreciate you explaining more!

A particles masterclass in 17 minutes. I am becoming a fan of expressions following this. Superb! Thank you very much indeed KP

Must Comment Again! Easily on of the most informative and well executed tutorials I've seen on Particles. The addition of simple and easy to use expressions made my day! Diving into it now!

This my friend, is brilliant! Informative, and helpful. Thank you!

Noel, you're not only extremely creative, your tutorial videos are great as well. You must have the heart of a teacher.

Thank, Wayne. I've been told that before. If kids didn't scare me so much, I might have gone down that road...

Just wanted to say that your step-by-step process and clear explanations of not only what, but how, everything takes place is incredibly informative and very, very easy to follow. Thank you for your hard work and expertise!

Thanks, Michael!

Awesome tutorial, Love all the explanations for each of the parameters. Keep up the good work.

Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial. It is so magical that I never have used after effects before and I managed to have a result like that. Thank you, thank you !!!

Thank you so much for such a useful tutorial!! I'm totally new to AE and animation, and your explanations of the process/purpose of settings (etc.) were super helpful and enabled me to create particle effects for a logo of my own. Thank you again!

Really excellent. Loved this. Followed along and subscribed. Made my own sand effect! Added a wind look. Excited!

This is timeless and limitless. I love. Thank you so so much. . .

You are the best tutorial guide I've ever encountered. Thank you.

Great tutorial. Thank you very very much! As most here already noticed - one of the best on internets.

You are insane, one of the best tutorial on KZread. Keep it up dude...

All i got good of you is explaination of what you are doing with settings. Keep doing good sir. Thanks...!

5 year after and still an amazing tutorial, thank you

Thank you so much. You explained everything so clearly and the result was fantastic.

very simple and clear explanation of the particle plugin. Thank you

Excellent! Everything works! I realized it on a CS6 version. Thank you very much!

Great Tutorial. Easy to follow along to and outstanding results.

Thank you sooo much for this amazing tutorial!

A bomb tutorial. Hands down. Sooo helpful! Thanks, man!

Thanks! I'm starting a new KZread channel and when it takes off, I'll definitely purchase the full effects set to save time on future videos. Right now, I gotta put in all the hard work myself since I have practically no budget and thanks to this video, I can make my initial videos looks professional!

This is a screenshot of my scene: ibb.co/bBZWUw 1) 3d model of a heart from Element 3D 2) 3d Null 3) Point light with Lens flare from Optical Flares The point light (3) is linked to the Null (2) which should rotate along the y-axis My problem is: i need the lens flare to be visible when it moves in front of the heart but disappear when it rotates behind the heart. I tried using a z-depth of the heart. But that makes the lens flare disappear also when it is in front of the heart. I hope my explanation makes sense. I'm open to try other lens flare solutions if you know any that work properly with a z-dept map. Thank you very much in advance!!!!

I've never used Optical Flares, but can't you animate the brightness of the lens flare? I would think that you could keyframe the brightness down to zero, as the light passes behind the heart, then brighten it again as it reveals itself on the other side. Or am I missing something?

Great tutorial! Keep it up, love the detail in your videos
