After Effects Particle VFX Support

Job ID: 40215708

Budget: $15 – $25 USD

I am polishing a short video in Adobe After Effects and need a specialist who can drop in realistic particle-based VFX—think drifting smoke, light rain bursts, or subtle airborne dust—to enhance a few key shots. This is strictly a special-effects pass; the edit, timing, and basic animation are already locked.

You’ll receive the existing AEP, the rendered base plates, and time-coded notes that point out where each particle element should appear. I’m open to Trapcode Particular, Stardust, or native AE particle systems as long as the final result feels organic and blends seamlessly with the footage (motion-blurred, color-matched, and noise-balanced).

Deliverables:
• Updated AEP with all particle layers organised and labelled
• Pre-rendered alpha or add-blend passes for each shot (ProRes 4444)
• A quick preview MOV so I can review before final render

Please keep an eye on light direction and camera movement; parallax and subtle depth cues will sell the effect. If you have questions about look references or plugin versions, let me know and I’ll send style frames right away.
