Hi I would like to do an animation of a character turning into sand. I just used the shelf tool to create grains from the character which works but since it just sources the points from frame 1 it doesn't have any of the motion of the character animating. All the particles start being affected by gravity from frame 1.

I want the particles to follow the same motion of the character animating for a bit and then it starts to fall apart.
Any help?

Thank you very much Rizviali, that's exactly what I wanted to know and I got it working now.
I tried a similar solution initially but couldn't get it to work but at least I know I was on the right track.
