In this tutorial we will be making a water bubble that behaves as if it?s being levitated. We won?t be using any extra plugins ? just the ones built into After Effects, mainly CC Sphere. The bubble will look and behave as if it is 3D, so it is great for incorporating into dynamic live action scenes. However, because of the way CC Sphere works, we will actually be ?faking? the 3D look using a very simple walk around.
