I'm not really sure if i'm posting into the right section as this query is a little more vague than usual.
At the moment I'm looking to replicate something like the effect in the frighteners (in reality that kind of effect has been used countless times). Basically the idea that the walls are made of some kind of fabric and faces etc can be pressed thru them.
I have some footage that I've tracked and I wish for a hand to be 'pressed' through a brick wall. My first experiment in Maya using nCloth didn't really yield anything. The problem is derived from the camera movement which although the footage is causing problems.
The shot (this is a fx test at the moment but the camera movement will be very similar) is a nodal pan of a wall and on one side of the wall I would like a hand to start pressing through the wall or at least give the illusion of it. any ideas how i can attain this?
Sorry to be so vague.
Thanks
