Review: Complete Training For Particular 2, Pg. 3

Value vs. Cost
Without a doubt, spending an extra $100 to grab this tutorial is well worth the investment and is actually a steal if you are new to particles or Particular. This little extra expense will ensure that you are getting the most out of this truly mammoth plugin. However, motion designers who have been designing with Particular since version 1 may find significantly less value in this Class on Demand tutorial but will surely pick up some new tips and ideas. Futhermore, Frank does a great job of explaining all of this version's new features in great detail.

Final Comments
Complete Training For Particular 2 does exactly what it sets out to do. It is another great addition to the Class On Demand series. The training is complete, comprehensive, and fun to watch. And it is a great stepping stone to taking your particle-generation design skills to the next level.
