Sticky Particles Effect
The Sticky Particles Effect for After Effects places glowing dots or points on your footage that follow the motion of the shot – like hundreds of glowing Christmas lights wrapped around every surface in your scene. It includes twelve preset looks to choose from, ranging from sparkling dream-like fireflies to an animated stippling drawing on paper.
Using only the native tools in Adobe After Effects, this template is 100% procedural. You can customize the effects with intuitive slider controls. Use the Sticky Particles Effect to turn ordinary footage into something artistic, hypnotic, and impossible to look away from.
