VFX Supervisor & Technical Director Allan McKay has released a new free video training series, this time focused on creating realistic fire using Sitni Sati’s FumeFX. The videos cover how to build setups to be able to paint fire onto the areas you want and how to use helpers to activate it, so you can completely choreograph and control your effects. It is based on actual production examples, deconstructing a real visual effects project. More on Allan McKay’s website. (Name and email required)
