'''RedGiant Trapcode Suite''' is a VFX suite developed by [[RedGiant]]. Its effects allow for the manipulation of 3D space to fit any need. This includes abstract (or imported) 3D shapes, terrains, particle arrays, anything you can think of!

~~These~~ are ~~'''~~only~~'''~~ compatible with [[After Effects]].

Most Trapcode plugins are only compatible with [[After Effects]], however there are few exceptions.

==Audio Keys==

==Echospace==

Echospace is more of a scripting tool than an effect, but still needs to be placed in a layer to work. It allows you to easily create ''manual'' [[Trails]] by automatically placing each layer with respective spatial and temporal distortion.

==Mir==

Mir is a plugin that's intended use is for generating 3D fractal terrain. However it can be very easily manipulated to do many kinds of ~~primitive~~ 3D ~~layer~~ distortion.

Mir is a plugin that's intended use is for generating 3D fractal terrain. However it can be very easily manipulated to do many kinds of 3D fractal distortion. In Mir 3 and newer, you can also import 3D models to work with as well.

==Particular==

Particular is a very powerful [[Particle Generator]].

==Tao==

Tao is another 3D shape generation tool, designed to create shapes along splines. Has similar fractal manipulation features to Mir.
