Note: Complex Elements and Elements were merged in 2021. They're all just called Elements now.

Hi guys! As always, thanks for your support. We have some cool stuff for you this month! The plus side to having a ton of different projects going on is a ton of new stuff.

This month's elements include a ton of noises that have an old school audio vibe. They also work well to give text an interesting feel when you use them as a displacement map. There's a light leak I constructed out of various overlays we've filmed. They were comped into some styleframes, and worked well as a leak with the grade we had applied. There's also an interesting blocky/noisy overlay that could add an interesting glow comped over something.

This month's complex elements are where things get interesting. We have an AE setup that allows you to place and duplicate elements in space and a node line will link them. There's a C4D setup for a balloon popping to reveal an underlying superstructure. There a setup for an X-particles explosion as well as a setup to loop random colors on clones. There's also a C4D setup that's cool, but kind of hard to explain so you have to check it out! Then there's an AE setup for syntax highlighting code as well as UI elements that are resizable and changeable because they're built using master properties. Make sure to check the readme files for more information. Grab all of those complex elements and have fun! Make sure to select Complex Elements in the dropdown!
