MOTION GRAPHICS

Create flowing surfaces, endless tunnels, and abstract shapes for use in your motion graphics.

TERRAINS

Design realistic or alien landscapes using Mir’s fractal displacement mapping.

3D CAMERA AND LIGHTS

Mir uses After Effects’ 3D Camera and Lights so you can fully integrate your Mir surfaces with your motion graphics and VFX shots.

SPIRAL

Mir 2 adds the ability to spiralize the mesh, deforming the surface with spiral rotation..

SEAMLESS LOOPING

Trapcode Mir 2 now includes the ability to create seamless, looping fractal-based backgrounds.

QUADS AND TRIANGLES

Choose between quad or triangle-based polygons for your surfaces.

SECOND-PASS WIREFRAME

Add a second-pass wireframe on top of your Mir surface. Great for creating grid overlays on terrains and more.

TEXTURE FILTERING

Mir 2 offers three modes for texture sampling. Choose “Nearest” for an unfiltered rendering of the texture. Choose “Linear” to smooth gradients and prevent anti-aliasing. Or choose “Solid Face” to make each polygon get a single color - great for use on low-poly retro looks.

Z-RANGE

Take control of the displacement by setting minimums and maximums. Great for creating plateaus and craters on your surfaces.

FRACTALS

Choose from regular, Multi, SmoothRidge, Multi SmoothRidge for varying displacements of the mesh.

PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENTS

Mir 2 includes many performance enhancements including up to 3x optimized rendering speeds and improved VRAM management.
