Here we had to present Eiffage's Expercité pakcage, which is pretty abstract as it means control over whole cities' electrical network, it also incorporates IoT and more complex stuff... Having nothing to clearly present we decided to go full abstract, particles and futuristic UI. Dark background to be able to turn on some lights in the city in the end, and some colors from the graphical charter.

This was the occasion to play once again with Trapcode Particular, and especially the multi-systems we have access to since the v15 of the Trapcode Suite. Below you can see the 4 systems independently, and how the merge really well together. Add a bit of glow, color correction, some slow motion and a camera move and the shot is done !

Here is another way I like to use Particular: to make path, light paintings, splines... Here a few light emitters are keyframed above the main streets of my 3D model, and emit a lot of streaklets. The lampposts are also point lights, rendered with trapcode Lux so I can light them up one by one in the previous scene.

Most buildings are basic shapes, either quickly handcrafted or kitbashed. Some splines to make roads and wires, particled-spawned some trees, and sent to Element3D for a nice, fast wireframe render.
Some building were re-used in another composition and in top-view, made for the print version.

Although it was supposed to be only a video at first, the very abstract nature of it had the client ask for a small brochure to be made. Firing up InDesign, I exported some images in very high resolution directly from After Effects without a fuss, and assembled a tri-fold brochure.

Here are some HD images to better see the details often lost in Youtube's compression.
