  Creating text with Smoke

  Posted by Ralph Pritchard on February 22, 2008 at 6:51 pm

  In a short film that I am working on the only way that 2 people caught between life and afterlife can communicate is by manipulating smoke into letters/words. The smoke source is incense candles and clouds. Does anyone have an ideas? Do you know of any other software that will do this out of the box?

  Thank you so much,

  Ralph

  I thought of trapcode particular, a plug in for AE. It has a preset called t_smoketype that might fit your needs. With some adjustments (since it looks like it smoke writing in the sky from planes at first) but I think you can achieve it.

  Hope it helps.

  Cheers.
