    Hi Guys,

    I have been going through these forums for a while now digging up information on AE. I want to create moving grass, I have searched here, but there is nothing that really explains in detail how to achieve the effect.

    I basically want the grass to gently sway left to right like as if a breeze is going through it.

    Can anyone please explain how this can be accomplished? I have access to AE, particular and CC hair.

    Something similat to this without the camera moving:

    Or this site has a few good ones!

    Thanks for any help 🙂

    This is the grass I want to animate:

    It’s an image there just to show you guys, but the water was done in after effects, so that is video. The rest is graphics.

    The grass there however I want to get that moving like real grass. I can bring it in AE as a PSD file and hoping to make it work somehow.

    I bet you could get some decent movement with the puppet tool, single blades of grass and particular, or lots of comp nesting..
