Why we like it

AEJuice Trapcode Magic earns a spot in the toolfarm library by covering two workflows at once: native, adjustable effects for After Effects users with Trapcode Particular v6, and prerendered clips that drop into a long list of other editors. That range is its main draw for anyone working across more than one app.

What is AEJuice Trapcode Magic?

AEJuice Trapcode Magic is a pack of magical VFX effects for After Effects, powered by the Trapcode Particular plugin. It bundles 15 fully customizable elements, each carrying a magical, cinematic, blockbuster-style CGI look. To run these native effects, you need Trapcode Particular v6 and After Effects CC2022 or later.

For anyone working outside that setup, the pack also includes prerendered versions of the elements. These come as video files with a transparent or black background and work in DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, CapCut, Filmora, Final Cut, Nuke, OBS, Pinnacle Studio, Premiere Rush, Magix Vegas, XSplit, and other video-editing software.

A demo video is available. The pack is listed as free here, so check AEJuice's page for the latest licensing and setup details before you download.

Who is AEJuice Trapcode Magic best for?

AEJuice Trapcode Magic is best for after Effects artists who own Trapcode Particular v6 and want customizable magical VFX, plus editors in DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro and other software who can use the prerendered versions.

How much does AEJuice Trapcode Magic cost?

AEJuice Trapcode Magic is completely free to download and use.

Frequently asked questions

Does AEJuice Trapcode Magic need Trapcode Particular v6?

AEJuice Trapcode Magic requires the Trapcode Particular v6 plugin and After Effects CC2022 or later to run its native effects. Without Trapcode Particular v6, the customizable elements won't work as intended inside After Effects. If you don't have Particular v6, the pack also ships prerendered versions of the elements that run without it, so you can still use the magical effects in your projects. Check the developer's page for details on setup and the current plugin requirements.

Can I use AEJuice Trapcode Magic in DaVinci Resolve or Premiere Pro?

AEJuice Trapcode Magic includes prerendered versions of its elements that work in DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, and many other editors, including CapCut, Filmora, Final Cut, Nuke, OBS, Pinnacle Studio, Premiere Rush, Magix Vegas, XSplit, and any other video-editing software. These prerendered elements come as videos with a transparent or black background, so you can use them without Trapcode Particular. The fully customizable native effects, by contrast, run inside After Effects with Trapcode Particular v6.

How are the prerendered elements in AEJuice Trapcode Magic supplied?

AEJuice Trapcode Magic delivers its prerendered elements as video files with either a transparent background or a black background. That format lets you bring them into a wide range of editors without running Trapcode Particular. The pack contains 15 elements in total, and the prerendered route is the option for anyone not working with the native After Effects and Trapcode Particular setup. See the developer's page for specifics on how the files are delivered.

Is AEJuice Trapcode Magic free?

AEJuice Trapcode Magic is listed as free here. Licensing terms can change over time, so check AEJuice's own page for the current details before you download. Keep in mind that the native effects still need the separate Trapcode Particular v6 plugin and After Effects CC2022 or later, while the prerendered versions can be used in other video editors on their own.
