Mograph 2 Dynamics Question
Setting up an animation with a bottle of pills. I’d like the bottle to tip over, hit the ground and the pills to spill out.
I’ve set up a scene where I’ve made the bottle as a sweep nurbs object and placed clones of the pills inside the bottle. The issue I’m coming up against is this:
Since I’d like the bottle to be a dynamic object (to fall over and react to the ground), I’ve placed it in a cloner and added the Mograph Dynamics tag. When I do this (and the pills are inside the bottle) the pills fly out in all directions automatically. If the bottle isn’t in the cloner and the tag is applied, the pills rest inside the bottle like they’re supposed to.
Is there a way to have both the bottles and the pills as dynamic objects so they can both react to the rigid bodies (floor)?
Thanks,
Christian

Hey Cristian,
To achieve what you want with Modynamics is difficult. (it has its limitations). For more info on your particular challenge, look at
Cineversity.com : Tutorial Track>> Motion Graphics, MoDynamics : MoDynamics: Concave Shapes Part 1A (and 2 and 3 as well)If I had to do what your talking about, I would try to fake it by maybe making the bottle opaque, and then Rendering the clone dynamics separate and comping them in after effects.
hope this helps

You can set a trigger for your dynamics to start. You may have to keyframe the bottle falling, but you can then, once it falls, trigger dynamics for the bottle and the pills.
