Hey everyone.
I just put together a quick tutorial on how to make that specific burst animation using any particle you want.
You can use this method for text, logos, or imported images.
I attached the video and the project files below for you to play around with.
Here is the quick breakdown:
- Create a Solid and add the effect "CC Particle World".
- Keyframe the Birth Rate from 0 to 15 and back to 0 over 3 frames. This creates the burst.
- Set Particle Type to "Texture Square" and select your custom layer.
- Set Color Map to "Origin Constant" so it keeps original colors.
Just be careful with the color of your solid layer. Make sure the solid holding the effect is white, otherwise it will tint your custom image.
Have fun with the files and let me know if you get stuck.
