wondertouch provides particle effects solutions for the visual effects and motion graphics industries. We make amazing effects like smoke, fire, water, and sparkle effects easy.

The company's flagship product particleIllusion, a sprite-based particle effects application, is designed to provide the most comprehensive effects creation tool and efficient workflow.

Considered one of the most popular solutions for effects creation, particleIllusion is now used worldwide by creative professionals working in film post-production and pre-visualization, standard and HD video, commercial broadcast, motion graphics and game content creation.

Today's films are loaded with post-production effects work, often times on very tight schedules.

particleIllusion is so fast and easy to use that it's the tool of choice when the deadline looms and a shot needs some last-minute tweaks (more smoke, a few sparkle effects, an extra layer of snowflakes, etc).

particleIllusion has been used in many feature films including: North Country, Wedding Crashers, Fantastic Four, H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds, Sin City, The Adventures of Shark Boy & Lava Girl in 3D, Stealth, Constantine, Van Helsing, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, The Manchurian Candidate, The Chronicles of Riddick, Hellboy, Blade: Trinity, and many more.

Even when it won't be used in the final version of a shot, particleIllusion is the ultimate high speed particle tool for pre-visualization.

You can understand why particleIllusion is used in the sci-fi shows - they are loaded with explosions, smoke, sparkle effects and other traditional particle effects.

There are so many effects shots on some of those shows and production schedules are so tight that the effects houses involved look for the fastest and easiest way to get believable effects. particleIllusion works perfectly for many of the effects shots needed in these types of shows. Sci-fi shows are one thing, but you might be wondering how a particle effects system is used in those other shows.
particleIllusion is so versatile that it can do a HUGE variety of other effects as well. Fireworks and sparkle effect animation are obvious uses (the title sequence for Sesame Street's Journey To Ernie segment uses particleIllusion-generated sparkles), but particleIllusion makes available an expansive library of artistic and stylized effects that can fill almost any creative need.
