Deadline near… Melt needed
Hello everyone,
I’m a bit in a hurry here, you know how this works. So I need to hand in an animation of a bottle (like a cleaning liquid bottle) and they want it to split, creating to instances of itself. But the don’t want one coming from behind the other, they want the to look as if they were stitched together, and therefore creating like a “melty” look effect. As if they were wax balls in a lava lamp.
They are two psd images with an alpha channel, but still I don’t know how to do this. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Alejandro

what i would do is this
Using the liquify filter, move one from behind the other, assuming the first (original one) stays still (and it doesn’t have to move while shooting though you can move them, centering the split as they go). Use the liquify filter to stich them over. If you are having issues of being able to see on through the other. Shoot a plate, as well and mask it off (once again assuming it doesnt move)

Thanks for the help.
I rotoscoped each frame (only 8 of them) in photoshop with the smudge tool and others. I guess it is similar to your proposal. I will try yours also to see if it looks better.
Regards
Alejandro
