Asset: Fire Elements
Added 2020-04-10 11:06:35 +0000 UTCWe decided to burn down the debris pile we'd accumulated over the winter, so I snagged some footage of it! Turned out more useful than I expected.
Alright so, yeah- fire elements are a dime a dozen, but I've done a bit of extra work on these ones to hopefully make them a bit more useful.
They all loop (which can be very handy), and I've tweaked several of them so that the edges fairly invisibly fade to perfect black (so stuff doesn't suddenly disappear when it reaches the edge). One is even tiled, so you can repeat it out if you want. They can work in After Effects, but they were mostly optimized to be used in a 3d environment.
I'll be posting a video tomorrow about different ways you could use these in a 3d environment. Until then- sleep time!!
Oh Also! Continued apologies to the ever growing list of people I need to respond to! I don't want anyone to feel like I'm ignoring them, it's just taken me a sec :D

Or click here to browse through and just snag a few.
(additional note: I worked pretty hard to try to make these optimized size/quality wise, but if you want any additional ones in 4k, or higher quality, hit me up and I'll see what I can do!)

2020-04-11 09:23:05 +0000 UTCOh dude yeah! The biggest limitation with phones is usually dynamic range (if something's really bright in the scene, it's either going to be blown out, or everything else is going to be dark). Which can actually work in your favor a lot of times, if you're just trying to shoot elements of isolated bright things. Shooting video textures on your phone is actually a really great way to work. For example, if you're out and about, you could film some footage of a city street (ideally after setting up the phone somewhere so it's not handheld), then just stick it on a plane outside of a window in your 3d scene. That sort of mixing-and-matching can be really handy, especially for VFX type work.
