1.maya's own animation tree, which can actually be very effective. It is said that there is a movie "Time Machine", and one of the scenes was shot with this. The effect is not impossible.

2. If the plant growth is fully displayed, you can find a video reference, and the reference you give is drawn frame by frame.

3.Plug-in vue animates the growth form and then renders it.

PS。 In fact, everything can be done very well. If you are really so critical of the effect, it depends on how much time and energy you have. No, I have seen a tool kit for making trees, and the immediate effect is the best. But I don't understand how to animate this.
