Physics, only one of the most important parts of animation. Without physics we wouldn't be able to have animation look realistic at all, everything would just be weird and would stand out (most of the time). This is where Ron Henderson comes in. Ron is a physicist that instead of preparing a lesson at Caltech, went to go help Dreamworks with their newest and upcoming movie home. Rob is doing whatever he can to help the movie have as many realistic properties as possible. For example, Rob had to help them make bubbles in the movie, so he gave them a visual reference. He did this by giving the artists a lecture on Bubbles, where one thing they did was make a hydrogen bubble and set it on fire. This showed artists things that they were never thinking about. Rob also worked on Rise of the Guardians, Kung Foo Panda 2, and How to Train Your Dragon 2.
Before we get into anything, lets get something clear. This was boring. I want to hear more about the bubbles, not this guy named Rob life story! If your going to make an article about physics and animation then do it, but don't give it that title when the article is less then half about that. That being said the only interesting part of this article was the lecture on the bubbles. The lecture sounded really cool and interesting, too bad there wasn't more of it! I only learned about how hydrogen bubbles explode into fire and the fluid motion of them, so not a whole lot.
Well anyways that was another Serious Time/Boring Time. I hope you have all enjoyed and I will see all you lovely faces later! Peace!
