  Distort a walking shoe

  Posted by Craig Wetherall on November 14, 2011 at 8:57 pm

  Hi there,

  I have been asked to make a still shoe look like it is walking. It is just a simple side shot. I’m thinking the most tricky part is making it actually look like it is impacting the floor.
  Does anyone have any particularly wonderful way I could achieve this??

  Cheers!

  Puppet Tool or the Mesh Warp are two excellent distortion tools suited for this job. You may end up using them together – it all depends on the level of detail you want to achieve.

  Thanks for that. I’ve heard a little about the puppet and thought that sounded like a possibility. Time to learn a new tool I think 😉
