Getting Started with Red Giant
Welcome to "Intergalactic Forms," a Red Giant Cineversity tutorial series inspired by intergalactic space travel and science fiction storytelling. In this first tutorial, Blake Rizzo teaches you how to create a Galaxy and reveal it as a hologram with Trapcode Particular using Dynamic Form Emitter Behavior Properties and Flocking Predator/Prey dynamics in the physics tab. In the future we will explore how to texture a spaceship in After Effects with Red Giant Geo, spaceship light speed, and more!

Trapcode
Trapcode brings the power of 3D particle systems right into After Effects. Use particle emitters to create fire, water, smoke, snow and other organic visual effects, or create technological marvels and user interfaces with immortal particle grids and 3D forms. With a subscription to Red Giant, get even more 3D geometry input options thanks to Cineware .c4d file import. Use Cinema 4D files (including animation) in particle systems or as 3D models in After Effects.

Maxon Studio
Maxon Studio is a new After Effects template engine and intuitive interface available to Red Giant and Maxon One subscribers. Studio’s collection of Capsules, created in collaboration with visual artist collective CandyMustache, are not prefab templates, which can be hard to customize.
Powered by Red Giant tools, Studio Capsules can be browsed, selected, and fine-tuned with our user-friendly editing interface so you can create standout videos with the click of a button.
