Fire effects?
greetings,
I just spent about 2 hours searching for a animated fire/flame plugin to use with AE pro v7 for a project.
I'm surprised at how difficult a time I am having locating a solution.
I found lots of info about eFX Pyro and I really liked the gallery shots I saw of that... but that product seems to have disapeared from the marketplace.
What's the current tool of choice for "photo realistic" fire and smoke effects for use in After Effects?
thanks,
mike
I need to be able to make it look like the actors are manipulating the smoke into letters/words while the camera is flying around them.
Picture pulling on cotton batton or candy floss to form the letters. The letters rise eventually as smoke does naturally. Masking doesn't cut it and that is why I thought using a particle engine would be nice. I love the look of FumeFX but it doesn't plug into AE.
Anybody with any thoughts on how to do this? (or would like to do it for me for a film credit?)

alright i saw this video and im not sure how to do this i was trying and i can't really get close this is all in after effects no stock footage or anything
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqXrSiQxuSEThe fire effect that I created in the example was
A 32 Bit Project
A solid with Fractal Noise pre-composed
The pre-Comp with Colorama and turbulent displace
Another nested comp with Fractal noise used as a displacement map
A duplicate of the nested comp with blur and Colorama
The footage of a very small flame with a huge blur overlaid using the add mode to give flickering color values to the fire
A little more blur and Colorama, hue/saturation, Tri-Tone and probably some other color effects on other layers
Pre-composed all of the above and then duplicated the footage layer, but the fire pre-comp in between the copies.
Roto the boy walking in on the top copy of the footage layers
Some light wrap generated with the alpha from the roto, some blur and some more layers.
Manipulation of opacity blurs and color.
A bunch of other masks and color effects on duplicates of the fire, the footage and the light wrap layers to complete the effect.
I don't have the file in front of me but this is a fairly good representation of the 12 step and probably 15 or 20 layer comp it took to pull off the final fire effect. The shot as you see it was then further color graded to enhance the believability of the shot. As Mylenium said fire is not a single click magic button effect even if you pay for a plug-in that specifically was designed to create fire.
To tell you the truth, even compositing footage of real fire in a scene is a lot more than just a couple of layers and a matte. I've also done that on several projects and it always involved 8 or 10 layers to make it look 'real' to my standard of production. -
Hello everybody! I am currently following a tutorial on how creating a fire effect on my title.
However, after a considerable number of time, I still cannot get the same result of this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bScd6fvRxZk.
Since the tutorial is in italian, I'll tell you here what I think might be the problem
Whenever I use the effect "Colorama", I can't get the whole screen red like this guy here.
Instead, I only get this
does anybody think this might be an issue? Thanks in advance!Colorama is an effect that is very hard to understand at first. I would suggest type Colorama After Effects search field at the top right corner of the application and follow the first four links that come up.

How to simulate the underwater and fire effect with Java3D
Hi...My project is a Java 3D game and it need to have underwater and fire effect, but I dont know how to simulate them with Java3D best..Can anyone give me some ways to make them..thank..
You'll have to describe what effect you are looking for. Are you trying to model the surface of the water or do you want your scene to appear to be under the water? A surface can be done similar to a terrain but with transparency added to the geometry. Underwater effects would be tough if you want to distort the view of the scene. You might be able to get away with changing the field of view to be wider or rendering each frame yourself.
For fire effects, are you looking for animated flames? If so there are a few options.
1. Find a series of images of a fire and apply them to an OrientedShape3D through animation. This would be easiest.
2. Build a particle system with fuzzy objects (procedural texturing). This would be much harder but more realistic.

I need help finding a fire effect for a Final Cut Express HD 3.5 or in Imovie. I have some footage but I need to make it look like a fire is going through it.
Any help would be great! Thanks!Yeah, I once got a mate to help me set fire to things and filmed it.
Burnt stuff over a black background, blue background.
Gas flames,
paper burning.
Easy to composite, and has been used LOTS of times.
Nothing beats real flames.
Those fake ones look flaky!
The easiest thing to do is get a cheap can of hairspray and a lighter.
Place the camera a distance away, and zoom in.
I found black back best.
Wait till night time,
shutter fast, aperture wide open,
Fire some bursts of hairspray and light.
Be careful though.
Still worst case and you might have $10,000 from AFV! -
Anyone know of a good AS3 fire effect tutorial?
It needs to be realistic looking fire. I'd also like the
option to attach it to objects/images in my flash file. I've
searched google until I'm blue in the face and can only come up
with either flash 8 or AS2 or something that is nothing like what
I"m looking for.
Even if its just a tutorial on how to make a box with
realistic fire blazing inside of it I could use that for something.
Thanks in advance.Have you seen Seb Lee Delisle's particles? He has an AS 3.0
class for them and he's been able to mimic smoke, sparks, etc. You
may be able to toy around with the class and get what you are
looking for.

Rocket flames and exhaust special effect (2D graphics)
Hi, does anyone have a 2D special effect for drawing a rocket's flames and exhaust that they would be willing to share (open source only please)? Or, could anyone at least post some hints on how to make some cool special effects?
Thank you.This sounds like a good place to use a variation of the classic "fire algorithm". It's simpler than a full-fledged "particle system" but can still deliver striking results when done correctly.
The basic principle of the "fire algorithm" is like this:
First, you need a 2d array. For this sort of thing I'd probably suggest around 30 wide by 60 high. This is for pixel values that, in most implementations, range from 0 to 255. It starts out with zeros, of course.
Actually, you'll need two identical arrays.
Now, for each iteration of the flame animation:
Each pixel of the next frame is generated from the pixels of the current frame. This is why we use two arrays instead of one. First, for each pixel position, the new value becomes an average of the old values of the position, the pixels to the left and right (or 0 if we're at the left and right borders), and the three pixels below. This results in a good blurring effect, and upward scrolling of the generated image. (You can't do this for the bottom row, obviously; we have something special planned for down there anyway.)
While calculating the new values for all the pixels, also subtract 1 or 2 so the flame gets darker as it reaches the top. Negative values become zero.
For the bottom row, simply set each pixel to random values. (Although, for a more thrust-like flame, use low values near the borders and high values for the center.) This, combined with the blurring/scrolling effect, is what creates the lovely animated fire effect.
Rather than copy one array to the other for each iteration, I think it's possible to simply swap them. With some clever changes to the algorithm, it's even possible to get by with using only one array, but it's probably more trouble than it's worth.
Now, as for actually rendering the fire to the screen, that's probably much trickier in Java than in the languages I'm more used to. (I've made QuickBasic and Turbo Pascal versions of this, but not Java. Yet.)
You'll need a palette, probably divided into three bands: White fading to yellow, yellow fading to red, then red fading to transparent. (Red with an alpha value of zero would probably work best.)
Now, convert your lovely byte array, except for the last two or three rows which will look relatively ugly, into an image, using the palette. (This is the part I don't know how to do in Java.)
You can then use the AffineTransform feature to rotate and stretch the fire image and draw it on the screen whereever it's needed. (I'm actually not sure how to do this, either.)
I really need to try this some time!
Now, depending on the kind of exhaust effect you're looking for, you might be able to use the same array, and simply convert it using a different palette, one using greys, to create an exhaust image. Experiment! -
I found this class today which is really cool:
http://www.gskinner.com/blog/archives/2007/11/fire_effect_com.html
However, I've never used a public class before. I've been reading up on them all morning. I'll provide the code for it here as well. Anyway, the author also provides a sample application using the class; however, it's a bit different than what I've been reading. He doesn't call the class in his code;however, it seems he has the class in his library, which is news to me.
Anyway, the biggest thing I'm after is trying to design my own application calling this class and just hardcoding the fire aspects in my application. However, I'm coming up empty at every angle. Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks again.Looks like he has fireFX instance on the timeline. Most probably this instances symbol base class is com.gskinner.effects.FireFX
You just need to create a directory structure that reflects his package:
com/gskinner/effects/
where you place his FireFX.as
Or, alternatively, you can remove package path from the class header and place FireFx where all you classes (or your application) are:
package com.gskinner.effects {
to
package {
Then you will just need to instantiate the class. -
Why can't I put a pre-keyed footage on my video without it freezing on the preview?
I am trying to put a pre-keyed fire footage in my video to get a really cool fire effect, but when I use PIP, it always freezes in the preview. How do I fix this? Thanks.
Thank you for the info and links. I never actually read anything from Apple about Hebrew not being supported. Since I was able to use other languages, of seemingly greater complexity, I assumed that Hebrew would work. The patch I was speaking of (that makes Hebrew song titles, etc readable) is actually not a hack. It was developed by a student in an Israeli university and purchased by Apples regional distributor (Yeda Inc., Apple's Israeli distributor). The software is called iPodHE.
If you would like to read more about this:
http://www.israel21c.org/bin/en.jsp?enDispWho=Articles%5El1328&enPage=BlankPage& enDisplay=view&enDispWhat=object&enVersion=0&enZone=Culture

http://www.yakv.net/nextcantor/2006/09/03/getting-hebrew-on-your-ipod-a-guide-fo r-the-english-speaking-mac-user/
I did read somewhere that they are working with Apple to resolve a conflict with the latest version of iTunes and iPodHE v2.0.
Maybe this will be useful to someone.
Thanks again for your help. -
How to make a impressive text animation?
Hi everyone,
I have completed my video, but now I want to add some text to it, I tried using title, and I love one of those style in there, but I want to make a impressive text animation (transition). There's no way I can do it with the effect control tab, I want text appear and disappear with fire around or appear like typing style something like that. Is that anyway to do it, or any other softwares that can easily do what I expected? Please help, this is urgent.
Thank you.Besides the great suggestions so far, you might want to look into a couple of 3rd party programs:
BluffTitler (I think that it has a "fire" Effect as a Preset, and does have "Typewriter")
ProDAD's Vitascene, along with their Heroglyph
Pixelan's Spice Master (more for Transitons, but you can create custom Effects too)
Good luck,

New to Flash - How far can I take video/image manipulation?
Hi,
I'm new to the flash/flex world and am considering using
Adobe products for an interactive site. My understanding of all the
various product, however, is still evolving so it's safe to assume
and rather basic level of understanding of Flash, Flex, their
related products and relationships to each other.
I have a couple of questions before diving in, and any advice
or pointers to docs would be most appreciated.
- When the user pauses a video clip, can we pinpoint the
exact frame in the video (not frame in swf) on which they paused?
- Is it possible to take a screenshot of the current video
frame?
- How much "processing" can we do on the image? For example,
can I get access to individual pixel data, and is it reasonably
fast to manipulate?
Thank you in advance!
SeanSeanFlash,
> - When the user pauses a video clip, can we pinpoint
> the exact frame in the video (not frame in swf) on which
> they paused?
Seeking in FLV videos applies to keyframes, so it will
depend on how
many keyframes you include in that FLV when you encode the
video. The
greater the number of keyframes, the more precision -- but
the greater the
filesize.
> - Is it possible to take a screenshot of the current
video
> frame?
Flash doesn't have access to the OS deeply enough to take a
screenshot,
but you can certaily use the BitmapData class to copy pixels
from one object
to another. You can even manipulate those pixels.
> - How much "processing" can we do on the image? For

These are subjective questions, so it's hard to answer them.
I've seen
examples of "fire" effects (particles) added dynamically to
live webcam
captures. I've seen blendmode effects and filters (glow,
etc.) applied to
video.

Free Transform Envelope function available in Actionscript?
I'm looking for a way to warp or distort an object with
actionscript. I'm aware of the matrix transformation function, but
that isn't what I'm after. The matrix transform only scales, skews
or rotates, but I'm looking to actually distort the object (like
Illustrator warp or envelope function).
Obviously, I can distort an object with the Free Transform
tool by selecting the envelope option, but I'd like to do it
interactively. I've been digging thru the actionscript docs, but I
don't see anything that jumps out at me.
Any assistance or direction someone can give me would be
greatly appreciated.
ShermGrant Skinner did some fire-and-distortion-thing. He also
publishes the sources, maybe it helps:

The problem i have is ingame i have no music or gun fire effects. Spoke to take 2 who said it is a soundcard fault the only way i can get it to work is by going into dxdiag of direct x and turning the soundcard hardware acceleration to basic instead of full but that inturn turns off all surround sound (5. i have ) for all other games . I have to keep going into dxdiag to either turn acceleration down or up dependent on which game i play. PLease can you advise me on any possible solutions.

Jittery video on DVD but only on Motion clips
I have tried importing Motion clips into FCP 5 both as motion files and Quicktime files so I'm assuming that isn't the problem. I have turned the field order ? in the Sequence Settings to none and turned it to none when exporting into Compressor. Thinking maybe it was an interlace/progressive problem. I guess I am asking what is the typical protocol when using motion effects with SD video in FCP to make it look clear? Do to time constraints any help would be greatly appreiciated. Thanks,
I am using NTSC DV and I tried leaving the field order at lower and still the video is all over the place. The fire effect from Motion looks great but the SD DV I placed with the fire is what is jittery.
How do you set the Motion project to DV? -
I'm getting my kids (8&12) a green screen for Christmas. I'd like to get them plugins for explosions and flying effects. I don't want to spend a ton of money...any suggestions?
Also consider this tutorial. It requires only After Effects with no extra plugins, creates a nice fire effect and is created with a freely available fire clip.
The tutorial is for absolute beginners with no knowledge of AE.
