big splash
any way to make a splash. there is no trouble making the ripples, even big waves, but I can’t get a splash. In searching the archives it looks like this is a 3d app thing, not ae. I was thinking of maybe a particle system. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Try the plug-in Wave World, it’s included by Adobe when you register.

Wave World generates wonderful ripples and reflectivity (when used with Caustic effect), but no splashes.

if you need this to stay in AE – might be worth finding stock footage or filming it yourself and comping it in

managed to do kind of a splash with particular and mr mercury. it’s still not good.
I think i’ll explore shooting some live footage. I have an actor that drops a glass of water on a table. We’ve covered the table with water, added ripples and reflections, but my splash is still ugly. any suggestions fot shooting a splash that I can key out?

shoot it on black and then when you’re comping it – use ‘screen’ transfer mode
