Thanks! This was done all in Maya and composited in Nuke. The only plugin used was bullet pyshics (Dynamica) for the rigid body sim.

the smoke grenade in the beginning is absolutely fantastic. do you mind sharing your settings/scene file with us? it's hard to get a look like that so detailed and achieve movement so realistically.

Very cool I really like the purple smoke very realistic but now it needs a practical setting for it

first 2 shots look like tutorials i've seen.

Hi,

Nice Reel. I'm a university student studying computer visualization and animation and am really interested in the purple 'smoke grenade' from the above video.

I am currently working on a post production unit and this is exactly what I want to do.

Wondered if you had any tutorials or tips to point me in the right direction.

Thanks
