Galactic

I've been searching for a way to really push the boundries of Trapcode/Red Giant Particular by creating a near-perfect galaxy. It's been years since I first thought it up but I only recently found a way to execute it. The interesting thing is theres not a lot of particles and I could even rotate around the galaxy live in After Effects.

If you wanna know how I did it, I would forward you to this awesome tutorial below, although there are several techniques I used that he will not speak to.
