animating a wave of grass and dirt
-
bzudo 151 posts07 Oct 2009I'm tasked with animating a wave made of grass and dirt. The client already has an image of what this looks like and wants me to animate it. I need some ideas on how to accomplish this. I'm thinking animate a a wave in C4D and projection map the image on to the wave. In AE, add dirt and debris. Does anyone else have any ideas or tips? Thanks, bzudo.

07 Oct 2009well that depends totally on what the angle will be how long will it be seen how close is it to the camera.
but in overall it looks like a reasonable solution you come up with -
09 Oct 2009Bzudo is it possible for you to do a in-project wip.
so while you work, just post some screenshoots of your workflow and ideas/tests.
looks like a very interesting project.

11 Oct 2009Well, if I were doing it in max I would do this:
-Create my ground
-Add a bend modifier to it with a limited bend range
-Animate the gizmo position of the bend modifier, to give the "curl" effect
-Create spawning particles on the other side of the ground, for the dirt effect
Here's a simple test I did to show you what I mean:
