matrix effect


Recommended Posts

i´m working on my second rubberguy short right now, and i want to have a bullet flying through the air effecting those matrix-rings as in the movie... (you know, when you can see the air displaced by the bullet...)

i´m using an animated reflective transparent perlin-combiner as material on the rings, that works pretty well so far....

my question is: how would make the rings scale up as the bullet flows through? and how would you fade them in and out? sure, i could animate that all by hand, but i´m pretty shure there´s a more elegant solution for that, like using constraints or something...

 

thanks ahead...

Check out Jeff Lew's website. Jeff Lew is the guy who did the Killer Bean videos. I believe he explains somewhere on his website how he did the Matrix style bullet effects. He used Animation Master when he did Killer Bean 2.
