Product Overview

Amazing particles with full camera and light support - now powered up for The Foundry's Nuke

Trapcode Particular goes way beyond the basics with realistic natural effects for Nuke. Its powerful features include 3D camera integration, lighting control for shaded particles, custom textured polygons, depth of field, and physics controls such as air resistance, gravity and turbulence. Particular is used widely in motion pictures such as Spider Man 3, Terminator: Salvation and Angels & Demons and in TV shows like Lost. Get the industry standard tool for broadcast particle design, with new features developed specifically for Nuke.

Photo-realistic natural effects
Particular is the industry-standard tool for solving common visual effects challenges like photo-realistic rain, snow, clouds, smoke trails and sparks. Puffy white clouds, shiny bubbles, swirling dust motes, rain, falling snow, realistic smoke and flocking birds are all possible. Particular for Nuke works just as After Effects artists expect so you can move immediately into a powerful and creative workflow.

3D system custom built for Nuke
Particular’s integration with the Nuke camera and lights goes far beyond other plug-ins. Particular fully supports Nuke 3D camera controls and previewing in Nuke’s 3D view, so it’s easy to set up and see results. Emit particles from lights, bounce particles off nodes, and use custom particles with full 3D rotation and fly-through ability. Fast renders and compelling results let you stay inside Nuke and away from a full-blown 3D modeling system.

Editable scripts make setup a snap
The Particular OFX plug-in comes with custom scripts built as groups that you can fully edit to suit your pipeline. The scripts easily tie into the Nuke cameras and 3D view with one click, for the deepest third party support you’ll find for Nuke’s 3D system. Particular supports all of the Nuke platforms: Mac, Windows, Linux, 32-bit and 64-bit systems.

Product Features

Millions and Millions of Particles
The maximum particle limit allows quick bursts of up to one million particles per second!

3D Camera Integration
Particular OFX offers complete integration with Nukes' 3D camera and 3D preview.

Sprites and Polygons
Custom particles allow the use of image node or movies as 2D Textured Polygons.

Light Me Up
Shade the particles with eight built-in lights or tie in Nuke’s lights for greater control. Shading on the particles emulates light falloff to make the particles look more natural.

Dynamic Self-shadowing
Shadowlet rendering can cast shadows on both main and aux particles, adding realistic self-shadowing from a single light source.

Advanced Physics Engine
Particular offers support for glitch free-animation of turbulent properties.

Full Floating-Point Support
Improved bit-depth support offers high-quality 32 bit-per-channel rendering, which allows full-range output with HDR results.

Auxiliary Particles
In Particular, particles can emit their own ‘auxiliary’ particles, enabling objects to leave bright or smoky trails.
Reflection Maps
Textured Polygon particles can use a reflection map to add dynamic color changes to particles as they rotate in 3D. This feature is ideal for adding glints to rotating particles.

Rotation, Rotation, Rotation
Textured Polygon particles can fully rotate in 3D space, with randomized rotation direction and speed, and automatic orientation to the direction of their motion.

Streak It Up
Streaklet particles resemble long-exposure light effects, as seen in Apple's iPod Nano Remastered commercials.

Transform Your World
For animation flexibility, the Transform World feature allows the entire Particular workspace to be offset or rotated in 3D space without moving the Nuke camera.

Motion Blur
Built-in motion blur feature lends realism to moving particles.

Physics Time Factor
Freeze time while moving the camera around in a scene, Matrix-style.

Non-Square Pixels
Particular handles non-square pixel aspect ratios correctly.

Built-In Help
Extensive user guide features and instructive video tutorials give step-by-step examples.
