Need Animated Water Ball Effect

For my current short film project I need a giant spinning water ball that a character will end up holding (like a water bender from Avatar) and he will also throw it.

It doesn’t matter if the water ball is a simulation or an animation, but I do want a realistic looking water effect.


This is one of the scenes the water ball will be edited into, with a rough draft to show you the size of the water ball.

I will provide an environment map for reflections which is this:


For the actual look of the water ball, I would like you to use these gifs as reference:



The last one shows how I want the water ball to spin and swirl around the center X axis

I would want you to provide me with the .blend file once I give you the final payment.

the animation/simulation will need to last 142 frames.

If you are interested in this job offer, please send me a message with an estimate on how much you would charge for this project, along with a sample of any water animations/simulations you’ve done in the past.

Thank you, and I look forward to working with one of you talented artists!

PM’d you just now…

Hey Johnathan… Really sorry about not ever getting back to you on this… The week we talked, my laptop’s hard drive fried, and I had no access to Skype. I still have no access to skype, but I still have the animation file. I am going to me getting a new PC in two weeks, as I finally got the money and parts, and gotta wait on shipping and all that. Once again, I’m really sorry, and if you want to hire someone else, let me know through here, and I’ll send them over my files… Most of the animation is finished… it just needs minor tweaking and rendering…
