Quick Overview

25% Off until Oct 25. Vectory transforms any image into a living network of moving lines. Thousands of particles travel across your image, changing direction based on pixel brightness and forming dynamic, evolving patterns. Perfect for creating organic motion graphics and abstract textures.

We use particle-based vector algorithms to transform images into dynamic line drawings. Thousands of agents are spawned directly on your source image, each one moving step by step across the pixels. At every step, the agent reads the brightness of the pixel it stands on and changes its direction according to that brightness value. When multiplied by thousands, these micro-movements generate complex trails and structures that reconstruct the source image in a completely new, organic way.

The plugin offers three unique modes: Particles, Static Trails, and Trails. In Particles mode, you see the raw moving points acting as agents. In Static Trails mode, their entire paths are rendered as still lines, creating a vectorized drawing of your image. In Trails mode, the particles move continuously, leaving fading streaks behind them for a flowing, animated effect

Vectory comes with a wide range of parameters for artistic control. You can randomize particle movement, adjust global direction, remap colors, and even influence trajectories with Gravity Points that either attract or repel agents. This makes it possible to generate effects ranging from delicate textures to explosive particle bursts.

The plugin works perfectly in combination with other Zaebects tools like Modulation 2, JPEG Glitch, and Signal. Together, they form a toolkit for pushing video and image processing into experimental and artistic territories.
Features:
  1. Particle system based on pixel brightness scanning
  2. Three main modes: Particles, Static Trails, Trails
  3. Adjustable movement randomness and global direction
  4. Customizable particle size and lifetime
  5. Color control with options to keep, shift, or remap over time
  6. Gravity Points for interactive attraction/repulsion forces
Parameters:
  1. Spawn and Count
    Control how many agents are created per second and their distribution over the source image. Adjust brightness cutoff to define where particles can spawn.
    Vectory
  2. Particle Lifetime and Size
    Set how long each agent exists, whether its size changes over time, and how trails are drawn.
    Vectory
  3. Movement and Forces
    Tune the particle speed, add directional bias, or apply attraction and repulsion using Gravity Points. Perfect for shaping the overall flow of the trails.
    Vectory
  4. Fluctuation
    Add jitter and variation to the movement for more chaotic, energetic results.
    Vectory
  5. Color Options
    Keep the original image colors, use custom palettes, or animate color transitions over time.
    Vectory
  6. Drawing Mode
    Switch between Nice and Simple rendering, with optional transparency and background color control.
