Thanks very much Adam. I’ll give is a shot. My scene only contains 3 simple geometric shapes, but there is a point on the timeline when an object shatters. Im guessing that will be the true test.

I will give it a shot and see where it takes me.

Thanks very much for your help.

Hi Mark

Thanks, understood what you meant. I was missing a 2nd layer on my timeline, so I couldnt target it.

Much appreciated!

Hi thetaxidriver

I know these were just settings you sent. But just to let you know, as a results i was able to track and understand what each parameter was doing and why. And in doing so was able make alterations as you suggested on the fly. Going forward its giving me a far better understand of particulars than i expected.

Thanks very very much for your input. Great!

Hi all

Here is my first attempt at the swirly type ink effect im trying to create. I used the sinedot plugin, and think it done the job far better than expected. After changing a few parameters at keyframes to add movement, I also used the Turbulance displacment filter to give it more fluidness, but its still a little hit and miss. Hopefully with a little more work and time i can create something even better.

@ tb5821 – Best of luck!

Here is the link to it. Using H.264 codec

Hi Morebo and Nate.

Thanks for the suggestions.

@ Nate, unfortunately shooting in a thank will be out of the question because of the time and resoruces, plus I will need to have control over the paramenters of the organic fluid. However, thanks very much for your input. And i may look at this method ata later date.

@ Morebo – I’ve never come across this plugin before, but I will look into Sinedot, and see where that takes me.

Thanks for the advice guys. Much appreciated!
