“I’m not sure what it says about Red Giant that Apple introduces the ability to stick things on our text messages, and our immediate thought is: how we can use it for lens flares and explosions?!” comments Seth Worley, filmmaker and Red Giant director of content, who created the iOS stickers with Micah Lanier, who also appears regularly in Red Giant’s film projects. “Our customers use our tools every day in their work, and we saw this as a great opportunity to make something cool and fun that they could use every day outside of their work. And we built all the imagery using our products – all the explosions, fire, and muzzle flashes were created entirely with Trapcode Particular; all of the lens flares were made with Knoll Light Factory; and the Holomoji Stickers were all brought to life with Red Giant Universe’s Holomatrix II.”
