Flying Liquid Teardrop Blobs – Adobe After Effects tutorial

Make liquid blobs fly around the frame. I’m sure you’ve seen this before and if you’ve tried particle systems, and just plain drawing it, then you need this lovely solution that uses other paths as guides but still tricks the computer into doing most of the work for you. It’s great.

If you have any questions just let me know in the comments.

    Your tutorials are awesome, thanks so much for your help with AE.. when I get a bit of money i’ll be sure to purchase some of your files in order to make a contribution… Was wondering how to generate those shadows in the 3d layer for the “Flying Liquid Teardrop Blobs”

      Hey Russ. Those shadows are a precomp of the content that’s just been moved in 3d, given a blur and a fill, and made a little transparent. Not much to it. Enjoy.

    Hi! I really like your tutorials. I learn at lot from them. You did mention in your video that the text animation for this will be in another video. Could you please give me the link to that?

      I’m not sure if I ended up getting around to it. If I did it must be on the channel in the tutorials playlist. It was a long time ago or me to remember. If I didn’t do it though, I should soon right?

    hi, thanks for this tutorial! pretty good!
    I’ve learn at lot!
    But why did you don’t use “Turbulent Displace” effect to animate the drop? it doesn’t exist when you make the vidéo?
    thanks again 😉
