In this Maya tutorial we’ll go over the process of creating realistic water effects to flood a city using Bifrost. Water has always been a difficult effect to reproduce. Maya 2015 introduces Bifrost, a liquid simulation engine capable of handling water simulation of any size. Throughout these lessons we'll use Bifrost to create a giant wave that floods a city street.
By the end of this Maya training, you'll understand how to add water and achieve your desired results with any scene.
