Animated Bubbles

OK Gurus, I have this idea that I would like to bring to fruition but my mechanical mind cannot bend to the necessary steps.

What I see is a champagne glass, lots of bubbly in it and lots of bubbles rising up through the champagne. As the bubbles hit the surface they escape and become multi-hued just like Casey's bubble. There is a difference however, what I want is a never ending series of bubbles that rise from the champagne, growing larger as they float away, each containing a different head/shoulders and finally 'popping' as they move out of the frame. I have about 60 busts that I want to use but have no idea of how to tackle this project. The bubbles could be in series or in parallel providing they could be seen as containing stand-alone busts.

I am thinking that this cannot be done but then I remembered a particular sentiment on this forum "there's no such thing as can't".

Of course it can be done.
Walt Disney cartoon films were originally just a series of drawings changing slightly in each frame.
Animated gifs work exactly the same.


Here is a rough anim with .xar file so you can see the how.

Here's one made three years ago when I was churning out what they call "Sigs."

Some animated bubbles I made about six years ago.

It was my first post on the old i/us forum.

I didn't make that one.
I hated the things - made me feel seasick.

wow Now thats a nice sig !!!pleasing to the eye (VERY PLEASING) and the guys in my clan would fight over that one lol!!!!!

Many thanks Raymond and Bill,
you've shown me that it is not as hopeless as I thought, it will just take a little effort on my part.
BTW Raymond, in your second 'contribution' with the nubile lady and the glass, I see the proximity of the derriere and note the bubbles appear out of nowhere above the liquid and then sinking downwards (heavier than air?). Was that intended?

Good grief, Sailor - what kind of mind do you think I have?
