You don't notice that something is up, because they are just blurry things looking at other blurry things. This technique was brought together by effects artist Kalman Ruszkai. Using Houdini, this was possible without distorting the shard’s individual shapes. For the smaller touches, Surface Operators were used to add more subtle control over the shape of shatter on the initial impact. The simulation was then produced using Rigid Body Dynamics with radial activation set up to work over time. The glass was therefore pre-fractured using a mix of voronoi fracturing tools and a custom “for each” network to create more shard like segments of glass once the main fracture was generated. In this sequence, the shattering glass offered quite a challenge because it had to be presented in slow motion over a very long time period while revealing a great deal of detail.
