  My brain sees something different than yours when you say fireball. Do you need the “ball” part of fireball or just the fire part? Do you require smoke and an explosion with a shockwave?

  Pyrotechnics and immolation are not difficult in AE but satisfying your need for realism or stylization is challenging.

  Drop by theanvel.com and look for his free AE projects for pyrotechnics and arson. Great places to start.

  This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”
