PLUGINS & SOFTWARE USED

Trapcode Tao is an amazing new After Effects plugin from Peder Norrby.

Tao creates great looking 3D animations using built-in auto paths, mask shapes, and the motion from After Effects 3D lights.

The plugin is easy to use and very fast to render, which makes it ideal for experimenting and generating new animations. I’ve not been this excited about an After Effects plugin in quite a while, which is why I’m creating 30 days worth of Trapcode Tao animations and publishing them here.

I encourage you to give the plugin a try to see what you can create. Download the free trial version here.
