shatter doesnt work
hi folks
as i understood, the time i apply a shatter effect and make a prewiew, it supose to blow up the bricks by default. well, in my case it didnt. i checked the blue sphere radius and also the distance..still it didnt.
does anybody can guess what the problem is?
pls
thanks a lot in advance

I just created a solid, then applied shatter and made a RAM preview. It blew up the solid, with all falling bricks gone after 3 seconds. I made no changes to any shatter settings.
You must have changed something. Did you try spinnning the camera around to see if the sphere is actually touching the object to be shattered?

Try hitting the “reset” for Shatter, at the top of the Effect Palette.
The Effect Shatter effect is coovered in detail in this pdf, After Effects 5.5 Effects Documentation (ZIP: 3.2M) at:
https://www.adobe.com/products/aftereffects/indepth.html
Shatter is in pdf 4, pgs 17-26.
Lots of reading but lots of control.

We also have a beginner’s shatter tutorial in our library:
https://www.creativecow.net/articles/unguren_ben/shatter/index.htmlA really nice tutorial from Ben Unguren. It’s for 5.5, but I’m sure it would still be applicable.
