Exercises:

Morphing DNA
In this exercise, you are going to create an animation where flying bubbles will morph into a DNA strand.

In this exercise, I want to show you that particles don't have to look like spheres you can import any object and we can even make an awesome looping animation.

Keyboard animation
After the more simple forms in part 4, we are going more into depth into looping animations

Particles give realism to our scenes. coca-cola and bud light have been using these techniques for years and now you can do it yourself.
