  • putting fire into a boxing ring

    Posted by Bodybuildingbs on March 17, 2006 at 11:20 pm

    I have this video project I have a video of a boxing/wrestling ring and I would like to know how to either:

    1. Make it seem like the fire is actually IN the ring

    or

    2. Surround the ring like a cage match with a cage of fire..just front view.

    Any ideas and thank you.

    To make the fire look like its in the ring, you’d have to use Blockers (or a mask in your compositing program) to mask out anything in front of the ring (like the ropes and turnbuckles).

    For the cage of fire, you can right-click on your fire emitter and turn it into a line emitter, and keep adding points as you need to make lines across the cage.
