Trapcode Horizon is pretty neat...

I was trying to figure out a way to render a cinema 4d sky as a HDR spherical map to use in AE with the plugin trapcode particular. I somewhat think I figured it out. This was my first test so its not perfect but will improve in future tests.

Here is a video of my final animation. Sky rendered in C4D as HDR Tiff then brought into PS where I turned it into a pseudo HDR spherical map. I animated the camera in AE as well.

I made all the particle effects in AE with Particular. I can see some pretty cool possibilities with this technique especially when combined with Trapcode Horizon.
