Red Giant Trapcode Suite is a powerful set of 11 plugins for Adobe After Effects that provide a wide range of motion graphics, animation and visual effects.

These tools from Red Giant let you efficiently manage titles, create animated backgrounds and logos, design visual effects and 3D objects right from the After Effects native interface.

These are all kinds of 3D particle systems, complex motion graphics, volumetric light effects, organic 3D particle effects and much more.

The Red Giant Trapcode Suite includes:

Trapcode Form is a module for After Effects designed to create animation effects that include fire, smoke, sand, wind. Trapcode Form can create effects of any complexity – from text logos that are carried away by a gust of wind, to a 3D model of the Earth. The module includes more than 60 presets, each of which contains customizable parameters. Through integration with the 3D environment in After Effects, the user can fly the camera around animated shapes. Trapcode Form offers built-in audio reactors where a bass beat, tambourine or rhythmic voice track can control movement, color, transparency, displacement and other variables to create a visualization.

Trapcode Horizon is a 3D plugin for After Effects that is used to work with virtual studios and cameras. The module gives the composition a new look with a unique mapping tool, linking the After Effects camera to 3D space. By applying an image or gradients to the inside of a giant sphere, Trapcode Horizon creates an endless background. No matter where the camera is pointing, simple controls quickly create photorealistic backgrounds or sky gradients. The unique Trapcode Horizon module creates QuickTime VR events in After Effects and provides the ability to update the image with full control over 3D movement and camera field of view.

Trapcode Lux is a module for adding volumetric lighting effects to projects that require realistic spotlights, spotlights or lighting stages of all kinds. The solution is used to simulate the effect of light reflection in a semi-transparent medium, also known as “visible light”. This effect can be observed in cases where the air is not completely transparent, for example, on stage during a concert or on a foggy evening outside. Trapcode Lux automatically creates visible sources for all Point and Spot lights in the scene. The solution integrates with all levels of After Effects Light and automatically updates to reflect changes made to the scene in 3D space. Trapcode Lux provides fast rendering and cross-platform support.

Trapcode Particular is a module for generating 3D particle systems, indispensable for creating a variety of special effects, from realistic smoke and explosions to simulating the movement of various design elements. The user can set controls for the following properties: speed, size, shape, duration, transparency, trajectory, change, depth of field and motion blur. White clouds, shiny bubbles, dust particles, rain, falling snow, natural smoke or a flock of birds can all be created with Trapcode Particular. The solution supports the ability to explore from the inside of the created project thanks to the functions of rotation, three-dimensional navigation and the ability to fly through particles in the created virtual environment. The module supports 64-bit operating systems as well as After Effects CS5.

Trapcode Shine is a module for creating lighting effects. The user is provided with special controls that allow you to simulate volumetric glow, flicker and set the color scheme of the backlight. The solution includes 22 powerful templates and allows you to create your own lighting effects. The module provides 16- and 32-bit support and guarantees high quality lighting effects for any project.

Trapcode Starglow – designed to visualize the glow effect. The implementation of this effect is to create star-like reflections around the brightest parts of the object. The module allows you to simulate the defects of the objective lens and create completely new lighting effects.

Trapcode 3D Stroke – Draws strokes along masks that can be freely rotated along any of three axes using the Adobe After Effects cameras. Masks can be dynamic: the user determines where the stroke start and stop points should be at certain points in time. When working with vector graphics, you can transfer objects from Adobe Illustrator to Adobe After Effects. All transformations occur in one layer. The module has a built-in camera for AE and Combustion and can use the composition camera.

Trapcode Echospace – provides the creation of duplicate layers in image, text, video and layer elements in three-place space. Motion and effects can wobble slightly – with shifting and delay controls, etc. The solution is to create overlapping layers and cast shadows on other layers in the composition.

Trapcode Sound Keys – used to synchronize movement and sound using amplitude or frequency ranges. The solution can be used to generate keyframes for other visual effects, such as combining Sound Keys with Trapcode Starglow to animate light brightness. Users are given the opportunity to visually select a single audio range, after which the program will automatically convert it into a sequence of keyframes.

Trapcode Mir – makes fast rendering of 3D shapes, which is based on the power of OpenGL, with an instant preview of the created effect. Users will play with a simple polygon mesh that is packed with features such as fractal noise for distortion, texture mapping, geometry repeating, and easy integration with After Effects. Mir generates smooth shading or iridescent organic elements, abstract landscapes and nebula structures – beautifully animated with lighting and depth. Break the speed limit in After Effects with fast, flexible and easy motion graphics.

Trapcode Tao – animated 3D geometries along the trajectory. Creation of geometric shapes, ribbons, polygons, etc. Create geometry from masks, paths and motions. Works with After Effects 3D camera and lighting.

There are lot of cool things in this upgrade, but the most awesome, coolest thing is easily our new Dynamic Fluids™ physics engine in both

Particular and Form. See full details on what’s new below. But because we wanted to blow your mind… Here’s a short video from Territory
