Shattering a Glass Ball
I am doing a small piece of compositing for my final Uni project. I am using pftrack and Maya in order to show an apple, looking realistic, rise into the air and then fall to the table and shatter. I so far have the apple, I have videos tracked and rendered out but I am now trying to create the shatter. I have the demo of Pulldownit which should be fine but am struggling with it and how to operate the collision with the floor. Any help with this would be imense as I am new to animation in Maya. Thankyou

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

It's as previously stated. It's DMM.
you can find plenty of tutorial on the web. It's got a easy learning curve. After that it's just tedious adjustments and watching the playblast.
