Hey Brad,

I'm new to the community, I would very much like to know what is the best way to make hexagons in AE. I have this SUPER COOL idea for a video involving Naruto and Bleach. Can you please lend a brah a hand.

Regards,

Ryno

More dots?

On a more serious note: mebbe upload a little video showing how you made the intro to my "The Last Song" video making it 2.5d. Pretty simple stuff but interesting none-the-less.

I think I can do that, but before I get into recording it, what type of look are you going for? Meaning, do you want it to look like a drop of water is falling onto a piece of footage and the footage ripples away, or is it something closer to what you would see in a real shot? Like, camera looking down at a roughly 45 degree angle, drop falls in from the top of the screen, it ripples out into 3D space. It's a somewhat common looking shot in anime (Ah My Goddess comes to mind)

Im kinda needing a shot of about a drop of water falling onto a body of water. Not the footage but just something similar to the 45 degree angle. I havent seen Ah My Goddess but if you have seen Code geass,

Spoiler :

its something like when C.C tells Lelouch her real name but its covered by the water drop

Do you think you could find a clip online somewhere? Or post it on Youtube? Just so I understand what it is you're looking for.
