Domino effect

Hi - does anyone know where I might be able to find a good "domino effect" clip? I have dozens of motion effect clips I've bought or created throughout the years, but noting with dominoes (falling down - slo mo, etc).

I set up and made several attempts at filming this myself, but it still looks a bit cheesey for what I need. thanks a lot.

Lili, go to Vimeo and do a search on domino. You might find a clip you could that the creator would let you download. I did a quick search and liked this one: it might give you some ideas for making your own: http://www.vimeo.com/65761

Oooo... here is another nice one: http://www.vimeo.com/1407228

We did something a while back with logos

Just place the png in 3d space near the front then topple it over back set your keys
Then duplicate track slide over one frame duplicate that track and so on and and on and on work from top to bottom

then nest that project add your shadows make child in the parent make 3d
rotate x axis while the stuffs going down the shadows and pan rotate look very good with a bump map “no bump” you just want the light

The best use of this effect that I've seen is in the film The Fog of War.

xfx, sounds very interesting. Any chance you could post this clip? I'd love to see it.
