Trapcode Form可制作字溶解成沙、舞动的烟特效、轻烟“流”动、标志着火、吉他附着水滴的波纹，Trapcode Form 这个外挂软体可以产生出这样生动的3D外型，你绝对会被这样的效果给吸引，Trapcode Form 超强的粒子系统，效果实在惊人！

Trapcode Form is a grid-based 3D particle system with a twist. It can be used to create fluid, organic patterns, complex geometric structures and swirling stringy animations. Using other layers as maps for various properties provides endless possibilities to create unique designs. Furthermore, Form can be used as an audio-visualizer, automatically generating stunning visuals for your audio.

Form is phenomenally cool but also extremely complex. Harry J. Frank, freelance motion graphics artist, instructor and Adobe Certified Expert, beta tested Trapcode Form and shows you how to get comfortable with Form very quickly. You'll be spinning out gorgeous textures and eye candy in no time.
