A short water splash animation test that I animated in real time in front of the students during my Elemental Magic workshop in Harbin, China last January 2010

Your water looks SO much better than mine still, I have a long way to go.

Hey, I have had over 30 years of practice. That splash only took me one hour to animate, but I have animated hundreds of splashes! Keep working at it, in time it becomes second nature....

cheers

@gilland2000 I just started today and my first animation was of a water splash. I used the process in Bambi as my inspiration. How did you film your animation? I want to work more on animation and share my work.

@guitarman122508 I shoot my animation drawings with a simple digital camera, a Canon. Then I import the images sequence into either Flash or Adobe Premiere.

hey, I'm an Algonquin college animation student, we're trying to do this exact thing in class and this is the only animation reference we could find. i was just wondering if you put it on 1s or 2s or both? when we take it off youtube and go frame by frame, it shows 1s 2s and 3s. i think this is because of the compression youtube does to the video, so i thought id ask you myself.

really nice =)

helped me a ton (I am not used to animate water and looked for tutorials and footage and this was really helpful!)
