Project (after effects)

Creating the smoke for the explosion proved a lot more challenging than I first thought. Seen as filming smoke would have been very hard and impractical to do I used pre rendered footage from Footage Crate. I ended up with about 10 different layers of smoke to make the explosion look real because the pieces of footage I used would end and therefore disappear, this took a lot of layers, timing, rotation and fading opacity to make the smoke flow together and look like one piece of footage.
