I'm trying to wrap my head around layers in Blender, and how they work. I'm would like to make the scene with particles. A teleport movie effect. Something like,( beam me up Scotty), in Star Trek.
Here are some examples of what I would like to do:
This is a nice effect, but I think they used a different application.
This I like. I do believe it can be done in Blender.
This one seems to be simpler, I figured I would start with something like this. The reason I was wondering about opacity in Blender. I figured I would take the subject, and put him on his own layer. Then reduce the opacity on that layer. While at the same time, introducing particles on another layer. I was thinking though, I also need a layer of the background.
I seen something also done with masking. Perhaps I should look into that.
