  • Holy fireballs, batman! Learn how to bring some fire spells into your footage in this episode of Cheap Tricks.
    In the next few episodes of Cheap Tricks, Hashi a.k.a. Action Movie Kid will show you how to recreate many of the effects seen on the show using the VFX Suite and a ton of great tools and techniques. In this first episode, we’ll focus on 2 shots revolving around fire magic.
    We’re also using a bunch of elements from ‪@ActionVFXofficial‬ - a huge set of stock VFX elements we use in house, at Red Giant.

    In all honesty, this one video has more VFX mini-lessons that the entire last quarter had at school, _without_ having to pay for the class.

    I just bought Trapcode, VFX and Magic Bullet on the summer sale and I'm currently practicing with Particular and Form and wanted to try that Motion sketch idea. However I searched the whole effects library and I don't have it. I also have a CC Subscription so all my apps are up to date. Any help finding it? Please? Anyone? Is it removed in current verisons?
