  • warping a person into particles

    Posted by David Ungan on December 15, 2011 at 1:50 pm

    Hi guys, its the first time for me writing here. To forewarn you, me english isnt good.

    I´ve searched for a while in google but couldnt find anything concerning my concept.
    Furthermore i´m not good in searching with the right english terms in forums. So sorry for my lack of independence.

    Question:
    I want to produce an effect where a person on a couch is pulled in his tv while watching.
    I thought about particular,maybe some warpstream or the like.
    But i dont want it too eyecatchy, more in a subtle way.

    Do you know some tutorials or tips to achieve this effect?

    I´ll be glad about every little hint.
    Thank you very much.

    Best greetings from germany.

    David

    There are many tutorials out there for making a logo or text turn into smoke or sand.
    So, if you searched for text to sand or something similar, you would probably find a few tutorials. However, instead of using text, you would use your image of the guy.

    Here is another tutorial for disintegrating a person into Particles: [link] Of course, you would want to adapt it to fit your needs.
