I have an idea for an animation for an illustration that I would like to do.

Basically it world be an overhead shot of a oval swimming pool with a bunch of people swimming randomly around. Well not really people since I can’t draw worth jack, but just wiggling dots that represent people in the pool.

Wiggling random dots I think I can do by duplicating a few clips with Action script.

Here is the hard part:

At some point, I would like to have the pool turn into a toilet bowl, have the water swirl, and have the majority (not all) of the swimmers (dots) flushed.

If anyone could direct me to any examples, or offer and suggestions, I would be most grateful.

I don’t mind figuring out how to do it on my own, I just could use a few ideas for starting points.

Thanks
