a friendly reminder on how we can create metaballs in After Effects using shapes only

Learned this technique last year. Can't imagine who came up with this idea first lol But also a pain to work with; that's why I have this personal script to make it easier to manage

wow ive only ever done that with simple choker what a technique

I'm sorry to sully your informative post, but the first pass of reading this I read "...how we can create meatballs in AE..."

btw people aren't ready for this, but we can create meatballs metaball using shapes only

OMG I LOVE YOU hahaha

Didn't know it was that easy, I need to try it

can also get this effect in @rive_app as well.

OMG!This is so clever!

Thanks! I've been wanting to make this for a long time.

The fact that this can be achieved without any effects is truly surprising

Working on something similar too 🙂

Cool trick! Never knew this.
