How To Create A Surreal Outer Space Nebula 如何创建一个超现实星空 Step 1 Before we get started I must say that the final rendered output of this comp will take a huge amount of time, but I hope the final result will be worth it. I will be using After Effect CS4 for this tutorial. Also you will need Trapcode Particular 2.0 version of this plugin, because we need its shadowlet feature. Optional plugins: Trapcode Form and Lux, please download demo versions from Trapcode site. So let’s start with After Effects by creating a few folders in the project panel. I created four folders: ‘ALL Comps’, ‘pictures’,sound’. 开始前，必须说明这个最终的输出需要大量时间，但最终的结果是值得的。我将用 AE CS4 做这个，你还需要 Trapcode Particular 2.0 这个插件。我们需要使用它的 shadowlet 属性（粒子类型的一种）。还有 Trapcode Form and Lux，可以去官 网下DEMO 版。我创建了如下图的文件夹‘ALL Comps’, ‘pictures’,sound Step 2 It’s easier to build the scene using guide pictures.

We will just use it as guide to understand location of each element in 3D space. 找到一张星空背景的图片，更容易表现星空的感觉，根据自己需要找吧。 我是在 这个网站找的 Step 3 Download and import it into your picture folder in the project panel. Then select folder ‘Pictures’, and select File-Import-File. Choose your picture and click OK. 如图所示导入你的素材 Step 4 Now let’s create a new composition. Select Composition-New Composition. Use preferences as it is shown on the screencap below. 如图创建合成 Step 5 Select your guide picture, which we imported in the previous steps and place it to the timeline. Scale it down to 60% in my case and make it ‘Guide Layer’ with right click on it. In that case After Effects will be ignored in final render output. After all, with this layer selected, hit ‘Enter’ and rename it as ‘guide nebula’. 选择素材并且缩放 (60%)至合适的大小，右键设置为引导层（就是只用于显示， 渲染不可见）重命名为 guide nebula Step 6 Next we need to create our light ar
