    hi want to simulate some fotos dropped on a table on top of each other. it should be in 3d space with drop shadow.
    my problem is that if i animate that manually the movement don’t look very realistic. any idea how i can do this.
    also the fotos have to slide a bit while contacting the table/floor.

    thanks 4 help

    Maybe use a particle generator and instance the layer as a particle. With Particle Playground you can have real world dynamics like wind, friction on surfaces and bounce.
