ABSTRACT
The Cycore effects is a collection of over seventy effects that are a great addition to the native After Effects effects. Because the Cycore effects are spread through all of the After Effects effects categories, the best way to see them all at once is to do a search for “cc” in the Effects & Presets panel. The Cycore effects add two all-purpose particle generators: CC Particle World and CC Particle Systems II. Considering that the only other all-purpose particle system in After Effects natively is the dinosaur known as Particle Playground, these additions are most welcome. Like many of the Cycore effects, Pixel Polly presents us an easier (albeit less powerful) way to do some of the same things that native After Effects effects do, like CC Bubbles versus the native After Effects Foam.
