creating a windshield and car windows and for bullet hits
hello all,
I am making a feature action film and there are several parts of the movie which require gun shots that hit and break car/truck/bus windows. I was wondering (after i saw an andrew kramer tutorial) how does one create a window and then enable it to collapse when hit by a bullet? how to mask it? and when hit by a bullet (not really hit but for the film’s sake) when it gets hit by a bullet how does it collapse/crash?
Thanks everyone!

also would cameras be needed for this type of effect?
thanks

If Andrew has a window, hit it with Shatter. Worth a try. There is a cracked glass/mirror setting in there.

If you notice in those examples, the glass shatters first, then falls apart. if you maybe had a bullet hole in the glass, and animate some cracks coming out of it, then apply the shatter effect with bigger pieces, it would look more realistic.

LaRonde,
dont worry about time, patience and sleep. This isnt a class project. This is a major feature film that will be sent to festivals and competitions nationwide mind you.
Obviously since i am a student i dont have all of the bells and whistles to make a overpriced action flick but mind you with the skills my team possesses we can damn right make one almost as good.
regardless of it, I hear what you are saying but I am just looking for an answer on how to get bullet hits on car windows and possibly glass shatters..
