Our note
A screen recording of After Effects compositions Opus 5.5 built on request, showing particle fountains, glowing forest fireflies, a neon city skyline and a spiral galaxy; the author says it took about 10 minutes.
The creator’s post
I asked Opus 5.5 to build particle systems in After Effects I wasn’t expecting this 🤯 Took only ~10 mins and less than 3% of usage on my cheapest account. Much more cost effective than Fable 5.1
