About this software

Trapcode Form is an After Effects plug-in for creating and animating persistent 3D particle grids and particle objects. Its Designer interface lets users build, preview, and customize particle systems visually, with over 150 presets and audio-driven animation controls. Form supports importing OBJ and Cineware .c4d geometry for particle models and includes the Dynamic Fluids physics engine for fluid-like particle interactions. It is offered by Maxon as part of the Trapcode toolset.

Frequently asked questions

What is Trapcode Form?
Trapcode Form is a particle-based visual effects plug-in for compositing and motion graphics software that generates 3D particle fields, grids, and organic formations with adjustable visual and motion parameters.
What production tasks is Trapcode Form suited for?
Used for creating animated backgrounds, particle-driven logos, atmospheric effects, and abstract motion graphics elements that integrate into compositing timelines and layered compositions.
How are particle behaviors and appearance controlled?
Particle behavior and appearance are controlled through parameters such as emitters, fields or forces, noise, size, color, opacity, and by mapping particles to image or text sources and animation keyframes.
How does Trapcode Form integrate into compositing workflows?
It functions as a plug-in layer within the host composition, supporting layer-based blending, masks, parameter animation, and inclusion in the normal render and compositing pipeline of the host application.
