New additions like the Effects Builder in Particular 2.5, present a brilliant way to engage with the endless creative possibilities the software can produce, for the very first time. The Trapcode Suite From An Editor’s PerspectiveĪs a film editor, I won’t claim to really know much about the in’s and out’s of the entire Trapcode suite, and so my side of this ‘review’ will be more limited, but represent a new user’s experience. That said, you will save $690 if you buy the suite, compared to buying each plugin individually. For example, a full license of the new plugin Tao is only $99 (‘Academic’ pricing is available at a 50% discount for students and teachers), whereas the suite’s powerhouse, Trapcode Particular, is $399 when sold separately. You can buy each plugin individually if you wish, although the prices do vary somewhat.
At $999 it’s not a cheap collection of software, but if you’re a professional motion graphics artist it’s going to be the kind of money that will return it’s investment in time saved and client’s delighted over and over again.
This introductory video from Red Giant will give you a good overview of each of the 11 plugins and what they can do. Red Giant were kind enough to send me access to the full suite for the purposes of this review. The entire Trapcode suite was recently updated to version 13, and saw the addition of a brand new plugin, Trapcode Tao – which allows you to create 3D geometries along a path (more on that later). Red Giant’s Trapcode Suite, and specifically Trapcode Particular, are often seen by motion graphics artists as an essential item in the creation of superior looking shots.
