Circles

Sequencer Grid

The Circles effect creates solid sphere like objects that move seemingly in random fashion on a model.

Used most effectively on models such as a mega tree or a matrix. One or multiple colors can be used for the effect. If multiple colors are selected, than the circles will be made up of the selected colors.

Option/Settings	Description
Number of Circles	Number of circles that displays on a model. Can be adjusted via the Value Curves options.
Size	The size of each circle of the effect. Can be adjusted via the Value Curves options.
Speed	The speed at which the circles move on the effect. Can be adjusted via the Value Curves options.
Bounce	The effect creates a noticeable bounce up and down of the circles.
Radial	The circles stretch outwards and back radially.
Plasma	The circle edges blend into each other. Increase the number of circles for this value to be effective.
Radial 3D	The circles stretch outwards and back radially.
Bubbles	Each circle displays an outline rather than being solid in color.
Linear Fade	Causes each circle to blur and have its edges fade to black.

Place the effect to initially span at least a few seconds. After placing the effect on the model, adjust the number of circles and the speed down until the circles can be seen moving around and then adjust upwards as required.

Place the Circles effect on a star and select the Radial option to obtain a nice looking effect.
