You can change the colors to suit your preference and adjust the amount of particles.
To smooth out the sharp movements as it rotates upward, extend the duration. :)

Here is the expression script used in this recipe.

compCenter = [thisComp.width / 2, thisComp.height / 2];
layerPos = thisComp.layer("Null 1").toComp([0, 0, 0]);
(layerPos[0] - compCenter[0]) / thisComp.width;

compCenter = [thisComp.width / 2, thisComp.height / 2];
layerPos = thisComp.layer("Null 1").toComp([0, 0, 0]);
(layerPos[1] - compCenter[1]) / thisComp.width;

compCenter = [thisComp.width / 2, thisComp.height / 2];
layerPos = thisComp.layer("Null 1").toWorld([0, 0, 0]);
zPosition = layerPos[2];
zOffset = 540;
normalizedZ = (zPosition + zOffset - compCenter[1]) / thisComp.width;
