Pflow Text Animation

#1

Hey guys,

Wondering if anyone can shed any light on how this guy achieved the first 2 effects in this video - the cubes forming an M and the ring of cubes going into a sine wave etc)

Clearly its done in pflow, but i cant find any tutorials on line that even remotely cover creating an effect like this

Thanks

No ideas?

I’m stumped too!

well the first m is simple i feel he threw it to groung and gave friction so its sticks then give it a goal of m shape and hide geometry u got ur first effect
the second 1 cant figure out will let u knw if i can

Thanks for the suggestion mate, could you elaborate a bit more on the steps you have outlined above?

Cheers

well i cant give step by step tut but here its
the first effect of m
let the particles emit and fall on ground ground plane is high on friction so sticks der
den
den give a test operator to it so after certain frames it gets into new event
new event will be m shape render visiblity hidden and dat is modelled with high geometry
dem make it as a goal geometry done it will stick to it
