About

Part of my 2025 bowling animations project, this was meant to be a moodier piece that really played with 3D effects like lighting, volumetrics and particle systems.

Animation Style

Full 3D with a handful of 2D grease pencil embellishments

Trivia

  • The rain uses a pair of Blender Geometry Nodes setups to create a particle system, one that falls down predictably and another that shoots up off objects according to planes I set up for the "splash"
