The following is an example of using Trapcode Form to create some complex animations. The bullet was created in Cinema4D. I used Trapcode Form to create the vortex type stuff around the bullet as well as the blow away effects for the text.

I suggest checking out the Trapcode Form tutorial by Harry J. Frank that's available for purchase ($20) at Studio Daily to learn more about this amazingly dynamic plugin.
