    Hi there,

    I have been asked to make a still shoe look like it is walking. It is just a simple side shot. I’m thinking the most tricky part is making it actually look like it is impacting the floor.
    Does anyone have any particularly wonderful way I could achieve this??

    Cheers!

    Puppet Tool or the Mesh Warp are two excellent distortion tools suited for this job. You may end up using them together – it all depends on the level of detail you want to achieve.

    Thanks for that. I’ve heard a little about the puppet and thought that sounded like a possibility. Time to learn a new tool I think 😉
