The Steel Mill Project! Learning the particle systems of Maya.

      In my current class of visual effects, we have been learning all about dynamics and particles. 

It was a fun time playing with the particles. 

Areas I could have improved the speed and color of my melted metal.

It didn't feel like it flowed naturally. 

My smoke could have used an expression to randomize the radius per particle, and also an expression the would have allowed the particles to decrease in size as the lifespan progressed.

This would have made a nice effect.

Hope you like my work!
