Flowr is an After Effects tool, sold through aescripts, that grows strands. Give it an image, a text layer or a simple 3D model and it builds a surface, then grows thousands of fine strands from that surface. The strands bend and drift under force fields you control, picking up gradient colours along their length. The result sits somewhere between hair, fibre, grass and pure abstract art, and it moves beautifully.

Key Features

  • Grows oriented strands from images, text layers and 3D model surfaces
  • Gradient colour along each strand for rich, flowing colour blends
  • Multiple force fields including curl noise, base vectors and surface attraction
  • Turns flat shapes with alpha into extruded 3D forms that carry the strands
  • Animated growth and flow for titles, logos and abstract motion design

How to Download

  1. Use the download button on this page to get the installer package for your Mac.
  2. Run the installer or follow the included steps, which usually involve the aescripts manager app.
  3. Open After Effects, add Flowr to a source layer, and shape the fields and colours.

System Requirements

Flowr runs inside Adobe After Effects on macOS, so a current After Effects install is required. Dense strand counts render faster on Apple Silicon Macs with more memory.

FAQs

What can I grow strands from?

Almost anything with a clear shape. Text layers, images with alpha and simple 3D models such as spheres all work as starting surfaces.

Is Flowr the same as Flow?

No. Flow is a keyframe easing tool. Flowr is a strand generator. The names are close, but the two products do completely different jobs.

Can the strands move?

Yes. The force fields can be animated, so strands sway, curl and stream over time, which suits flowing hair, fibres and abstract backgrounds.
