Create a Black Hole in After Effects

This tutorial shows how to make a black hole animation in After Effects using the “Black Hole” effect from Creation Effects.

The “Black Hole” template allows you to easily and quickly create high-quality black hole animations in Adobe After Effects. Designed with customization in mind, this template includes a 3D black hole, complete with a curved 3D accretion disc, orbiting cloud matter, and warping of the stars behind the black hole. Simply customize their look with the easy-to-use controls, then animate your camera and render. The 360° star background gives you the freedom to create elaborate camera movements, and view the black hole from different angles. Also included are the comps for all seven animations from the main promo video, including an effect that imitates stars and matter being sucked down a 3D funnel.
