Fractal Volume, from irrealix and sold through aescripts, is an effect for Adobe After Effects that generates true three dimensional fractal noise in space. Instead of a flat noise layer, the volume sits inside the scene: move the camera and the cloud like forms shift with correct perspective, and scene lights shape how they look. Artists use it for fog, smoke, clouds and abstract energy fields that belong to the shot.

Key Features

• True 3D fractal noise generated in space, not a flat overlay
• Fully responsive to After Effects cameras as you move through a scene
• Reacts to scene lights for volume shading that matches your setup
• GPU based rendering for faster previews and final output
• Useful for fog, smoke, clouds and abstract volumetric effects

How to Download

1. Open the Fractal Volume product page on aescripts and complete your purchase.
2. Download from the official site and run the installer or use the aescripts manager app.
3. Restart After Effects and apply Fractal Volume to a layer in your composition.

System Requirements

Fractal Volume needs a Mac running a supported version of Adobe After Effects and a capable GPU, since rendering is done on the graphics hardware.

FAQs

How is this different from ordinary fractal noise?

The standard effect is flat. Fractal Volume builds the noise as a volume in 3D space, so cameras and lights in your scene interact with it naturally.

Which host app does it need?

It is an After Effects effect, so an installed and working copy of After Effects on your Mac is required.

Can I use it for fog in a live action shot?

Yes. Fog and atmosphere are common uses, because the volume responds to your tracked camera and can be lit to match the plate.
