I’m guessing that it has something to do with either keyframe interpolation or the point of interest.
What does the keyframe motion look like in the graph editor?

Regarding the stuttering playback its the HDV which is a long GOP compressed format and must be decompressed to play.
Search this forum for information about HDV and After Effects.
I’m surprised that Dave LaRonde didn’t take this one on , he must be busy this morning 😉

Add glows (several) and layer the fireworks. You can also achieve a 3D firework using CC Particle World and applying a similar technique.

I may have misunderstood the problem but you can have the waves generated from Masks or Image Contours.
Under Wave Type select image contours. You may want to auto trace and use the masks instead.

Kevin, many thanks for your detailed reply. I’ll give this a shot. I always appreciate your posts on the Cow.

If this is not a corrupt preferences issue it could be a memory issue. You might try accessing the Secret Preferences. Hold down the shift key as you select General Preferences from the menu. This will reveal a setting called Secret at the bottom of the Prefs pane.
Set it to purge memory every 30 frames or so. Not sure if that’s your issue but its worth a try.
