  Particle system: wind and reaction to layer

  Posted by Fabio Liguori on February 8, 2017 at 9:52 pm

  Hi everyone.

  I’ve been provided a couple of stills and I’m trying to recreate them in motion, but i wanted some advice.

  I’ve managed the “water” one with particular, bounce + aux system + lots of motion blur.

  Now the “wind” one, I’m able to animate a few lines using particular + Newton combined but I’ll never be able to manage such a large amount of splines.
  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated,
  Thanks!

  well you could get some really interesting effects with Saber plugin from video copilot…or perhaps even the lightning effect with very low complexity..spline and of course alpha
