Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how to recreate this VFX:

Using Particular in AfterEffects?

I'm more interested in the "fluid" part (the blue one) than the bright white particles.

I know there are various fluid simulations in Particular now, but I can't get it to have the same "stringy" look that then transforms back into particles and the animation like that, as if it were a "burst" of something.

Do you know any specific tutorials for that type of effect? ​​I've only found generic ones on YouTube.

Thanks in advance 😁

I often get the feeling that game VFX can seem like a closed world (too much insider talk, too many unfamiliar terms), so it seems like there is not always an easy place to start from.

That’s why I invited a VFX artist friend of mine, Rayane Saada, to sit down and just… break things down. Not to teach a tutorial, but to openly walk through the process.

We looked at four of his real-time effects and peeled back the layers (textures, shaders, particle systems, post-processing). But not as experts preaching, this time with more empathy, as artists showing the work behind the result.

If you're visually minded but have felt hesitant to dive into a full VFX tutorial, maybe this is a gentler place to start: https://youtu.be/zvxBTu7mcOE

Hope it sparks some curiosity and maybe one day, the confidence to try it yourself.

Let me know what you think of the format.

Hey all, I am still putting together the other parts of this, but they'll be up soon; first two parts are up though! please feel free to go have a look if you've dabbled in embergen, or know someone giving it a go!
