Agent Smith Tranformation effect
So you know how in the matrix where Agent Smith just jabs someone and they start to morph into Agent Smith? How would you go about creating that liquid-ish effect over the person? I was thinking maybe CC Mr.Mercury? Or something similar to it?

I just watched the clip of Agent Smith doing that to the Oracle. I think they did it in a full 3d program. However one thing I did notice about that scene is that those clips with the liquid in them are very short, about one second each. I think if you took that and made your clips with Mr. Mercury very quick, you could pull it off. You’d definitly have to play around with it a lot. Mr. Mercury doesn’t have any control over the shape of the liquid, it’s like a simple particle system where the liquid just shoots out or appears. I’d give it a try with a quick mask and see if it’s at least decent before tweaking it a lot to see if I can get it to look good.

Hmm.well thanks for the reply. Tbh though, I’m not entirely sure if using masks with Mr.Mercury is going to be too helpful, so perhaps I might turn to the 3D part. Except that I on’t know how to create liquid effects in Cinema 4D.
