I recorded some Unity particle emitters while doing my usual experimental video art animation stuff. I messed around with the 'force over lifetime' settings to force different coloured layers to fire in directions. These loops were edited in Windows Movie Maker using brightness setting and the Edge Detection visual filter. It makes a nice rainbow animation from particle effects. Trying to keep it 2D and colourful.

![Abstract Visual Effects: Hue Cycle [No Audio]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/bn-HJbJKP0Q/mqdefault.jpg "Abstract Visual Effects: Hue Cycle [No Audio]
Just seeing how my free software can cope with the most basic of filters: cycle hue / slight color changes. Layering them together is pretty fun too! Very abstract and colourful, with use of the edge detection and slight metaball visuals with how I recorded and animated this...
Note: I sharpened the edges slightly by adding the threshold effect to my particle effects recording to eliminate blurring / motion blurs and such.
Software Used: Cam-studio, Windows Movie Maker, Virtual-dub and Unity.
