Due Sunday, Nov. 9th, 11:59 pm)

  • What sort of water simulation will help tell your story or sell your emotion you've selected.
    • Do you need to animate your water sources to make things playful or do you want your simulation to be very smooth and tranquil if you picked something zen. 
    • Look at your reference photos and video. Think through what you might want set up that will tell the story before starting any simulation.
    • Run a water simulation that helps convey the emotion which may include animating your water sources. Create a flipbook showing your final fountain and water effect.

    Respond to your peers' WIP Piazza posts. Respond to at least 3 of those posts with constructive feedback.

Reference Demos This example steps you through flip simulations.
But definitely use the rig for doing your 2b assignment since it has more available controls than this example.


Demo video to step you through using the rig to add water simulation.

Below is a link to the Water Simulation Rig you should start from for doing Assignment 2b.
