That was my first stab at cloth simulator, 2D sketches and 3d. It’s already embarrassing to look at now.
But my LATEST one is better. This one went live on our site yesterday. They asked me to knock out three of these a week!
My original vision was to have the sheet yank off of the bed by one of the edges. I couldn’t figure out how to do it, so I just used a couple of balls (hahah oh the humor) to throw it into the washer, and it turned out better than I could’ve imagined.
That second image is definitely a person in robes with a hood on his head, jumping down into the washer with his legs first. Or maybe it’s just me? Also really like the animation!
Update: I’m animating the sketches with shape keys, and so far, it’s working out better than I thought. Previously, I’d used bezier circles to replace the facial elements on the face, but it never looked right.
