Blender Animation || Shipwake | Flip Fluids addon | Ocean Modifier

This project is aimed at developing fairly advanced workflow using Blender, Flip Fluids addon and Davinci Resolve. The following 3 steps were used to seamlessly blend the flip sim into the ocean.

a.) Shrink wrap modifier is used on the ocean to wrap around the flip fluid (Optional)
b.) Lattice modifier used on flip surface to flatten the edges
c.) Gradient texture on flip surface to gradually fade into the ocean (Optional)
