Maya Dynamics: Combining nCloth and Bifrost

Simulation tools offer great solutions to complex animations. However, there isn't one tool that can do it all. In this course, Maya Dynamics: Combining nCloth and Bifrost, you will learn how to use the strengths of nCloth and Bifrost to create a combined simulation. This course focuses on using Maya's simulation tools to create a giant blob capable of devouring anything in its path. Starting from simple object, your first task is to turn the shape into a physical volume. From there, the blob will find its own shape as it is allowed to roll around on a rigid surface. To add character, you will animate its direction to attack things along a city street. Finally, you will add a second dynamic layer allowing the blob to ooze and splash in its surroundings. When you are finished with this course you will have the knowledge to direct all types of liquid and semi-solid simulations. Software required: Maya.
