Memphis Script - Create random shape backgrounds in After Effects

Memphis patterns make for excellent after effects animated backgrounds, and with the Memphis Script it's easier than ever to create these random shape backgrounds right within After Effects.

Memphis also allows you to customise the look and feel of your pattern: you can add animation, change the shape size, and the size of the grid! Experiment to find a style that suits your project.

How it works

Choose which shapes you want to include in your after effects backgrounds, the size of shape you need, the size of grid to create, and then hit go!

The script will then create a random selection of shapes and place them within your current composition aligned to the grid you specified. There's a slight offset built in to each row to give the pattern the traditional Memphis style. Perfect for creating a unique animated pattern background for After Effects in moments.

In after effects, animated backgrounds can be a great way to add some interest to a scene, and with the Memphis script it takes just seconds to create a unique shape background design.

Choose your colours

The script creates standard After Effects shape layers so you can simply select all the layers and choose a different stroke style!

Each specific shape type also has a unique label colour assigned to it, this means that if you want to change all the triangles to a different colour; you can simply select the label colour group and apply the colour you want.

You can also apply drop shadows and other effects to create your own unique backgrounds in After Effects! The images below show some different examples.

Choose your shapes

The script also has customisable options that allow you to create unique after effects backgrounds, simply by choosing which shapes you want to include in the background.

This means you can create an animated pattern background of just one or two shapes if you wanted to, need a background of circles? Just uncheck all the other shape styles and hit go!
