This is my first project for Visual Effects 2. We had to simulate either fire or smoke using Maya Fluids. I decided to go very cartoony on this one. I wanted to recreate the iconic smoke out of your ears scene you see in a lot of cartoons. To do this I had to create one 3D container but two emitters, one for each ear. After I had both emitters created, it was just playing with all the settings to make it look good.
