After Effects - Flaming Skull

Worked alot of hours trying to get a decent looking flaming skull on this. Used Trapcode Form mostly and Trapcode Particular for the ember. Hope you dig it. Was inspired by Ghost Rider

@bompakk

thanks for the response! I followed your advice, and got some pretty good snow! Keep up the good work!

@dreamdemon99

hey no problem. Glad I could help :)

How did you do the flaming embers floating around the screen?

[bompakk]

@HighAcuity

hey. I did the embers using Trapcode Particular. Basically have the gravity at <0 so the particles will float up, then change the particles to faded sphere and lastly, increase the Turbulence Field for position and that's it. The Turbulence field helps make the embers look like they're floating up randomly. Also, if you add some WindX, it'll move the embers to the left or right depending on whether your value is '-' or '+'. Hope that helps

@bompakk would this effect you used on the embers also work for snow? I've been looking into making some believable snow. a response would be much appreciated

@dreamdemon99

yeah it will work well. Have a look at my company's website. In the video section, look for "Encounters at the End of the World". Same thing like the embers except the particles are not faded sphere but cloud and the gravity is increased over >1 and some wind X to push it to the right

@dreamdemon99 trapcode actually has two default settings for snow, it's dead easy to get stuck in!

[RockGuitarist09]

Could you make a tutorial video, showing how to make this. This is one of the best effects i've saw on youtube.
