    Growing a tree ?

    Posted by Andy Stokes on January 14, 2006 at 2:04 am

    Hi all,

    I’m about to start work on a project which is a little outside my normal cinema abilities.

    I have be asked to build and animate a tree to grow from a simple branch into multiple branches + leaves and flowers… I have absolutely no idea where to start..

    Can anyone point me in the direction of any tutorials, Or give me some pointers on how I might be able to achieve this efect ? I have been looking at Xfrog, but not sure if I have the time to learn a new app.

    Any thoughts ?

    Cheers,
    Andy

    I replied to this post topic at c4d cafe about 2 weeks ago. I had just finished a similar thing using sweep nurbs and basic particles.
    The emitter used the same spline as the sweep nurb, and emitted leaves that grew over time. Kinda fun. to view a sample go to https://www.birdhausdesign.com/public/
    and download TreeFB.mov
