About Fluxion

Fluxion, developed by grape design, is a GPU‑based particle plugin for After Effects version 1.1. It generates a vector field from one or more masks, allowing control over field width, falloff, scale, and sampling density, and can reverse flow or let particles continue past mask ends. Emission can be driven by Box, Sphere, Point, or Mask emitters, each with size and rotation controls (non‑mask types). Particle attributes such as emission rate, lifetime, speed, size, opacity, rotation, and their variations are adjustable, with built‑in turbulence, gravity, wind, and air resistance shaping motion. The plugin supports 3D cameras, depth of field, motion blur, and custom layer particles, and offers gradient control, graph‑based curves for size and opacity over life, and eight blending modes, all within a clean UI.
