  Creating Splash

  Posted by Laura Ferguson on November 28, 2012 at 6:35 pm

  Hello!

  I’m trying to create a splash in After Effects.

  Here is the set up of the project:
  There are three devices: phone, tablet, laptop. An icon “jumps” across the three screens. When the icon touches the screen a ripple is created, and the device is turned “on” (the screen goes from a black screen to view of a website). On the final device, the laptop, I would like to create a splash from the icon.

  Does anyone have any simple steps I could follow to make this happen?

  Thanks!
  Laura

  I already have the ripples. I was looking for something more of a splash, like a rock being thrown into water.

  I would create several small splash sprites to emit using Trapcode Particular or one of the particle emitters already built into After Effects.
