2D particle system animation

on a fixed frame

gif animation - 47 frames - 753Kb

1. We take a Thunderbird fixed frame generated with 3d program as a source picture.
2. On the car lights, we compose 2 lens flares (lights), and animate the intensity with after fx.
3. On the ground, we add 2 lights reflects, animated with after fx wave effect.
4. We zoom into the picture to simulate the car is coming to the camera.

1. First step is finished. we still need a life illusion.
2. We're going to add 4 2D particle systems for that.

1. the falling rain is animated with the first particle system.
2. second one, generated from the car roof, simulates the rain is bouncing on the car and the road. we use for that a kind of 2d collision detection. in this case, the road is an obstacle.
3. third one, generated behind the car, creates smoke twist around the car.
4. last one, generated behind the camera, disappears far in the picture bakground and simulates the camera is running too.

1. it could be hard to watch separately these 4 effects, I had to resize a lot this animation.
