Create an Animated Homage to Bruce Lee – Day 2

Jan 15th in Motion Graphics by Markus Gustafsson

In day 2 of the training Markus demonstrates how to animate realistic water physics moving between a cup and a bottle. You'll learn how to create pouring water animations and realistic impact ripples.

These clever animations will be combined with the typographic ground-work we laid out in day 1 of the training. The complete video will begin to take shape.

    I got a question. When I export my project & view it on my computer, the background [a radial ramp], like yours, doesn’t look smooth at all. What are your export settings?

    I often get an error message when I try to open new tutorials, does anybody else have the same problem? Today is the first time I’ve been able to watch this tutorial. I guess it has something to do with the capacity of the servers?

    Thanks for the tutorial…In future, can you explain how export 3D files (like particles) in After Effects to a small (700-800kb) SWF?

    If someone can help me, I’ll be thankful!!!
