Existing shape morphing has been transformed by using a linear interpolation. Therefore compared with real transformation of the real material, the transformation using existing method is unnatural. Moreover, a linear interpolation needs corresponding of the points beforehand that is troublesome work. In this text, it proposes a new shape morphing method that solves these problems. We move and transform a target object by moving the ball which was made for inside of object by Bubble Mesh. As a result, each part of the object achieve an organic transformation by complexly and respectively moving, and a natural transformation of the materials such as clay and water was obtained. Moreover, the work of corresponding of the point became unnecessary, and morphing became possible easily.
