    i would use stock footage but if i do not have them then id use particleillusion…though the fire may not look realistic at first glance im sure with some fine tuining and tweaking, it can be made to look like the real thing…cheers…merv

    yes if every layer in your composition has the same end keyframe as the first keyframe(ie the same parameters)…then join your first composition with a duplicate composition minus 1 frame in the begining of your 2nd duplicated composition…or u can use an expression…cheers…merv

    hi using the tutorial method u can use any fonts with any amount of words in a sentence…but i think u still have to animate the write-on effect…if u need the light to stop after each letter/word and begin in the next letter/word u need to play with the opacity in particular…maybe im misunderstanding what effect u r trying to achieve…lol…do u have a reference i could look at in a form of a still pic?… :)…cheers…merv

    hi…u need a 3rd party plug in like particular from trapcode…a tutorial from andrew kramer discribes step by step on how to achieve these ‘swirlies’ as he calls it…to do the text write up u probably need to type the text and trace these lines over it…it takes abit of time but u should b able to do it after watching the tutorial…andrews stuff can be located in videocopilot.net along with some other cool tutorials of other effects…hope it helps…cheers…merv

    i was discussing this effect with a friend and he told me a quick way was to fast forward the dv or digital betacam tape and record it on the fly with premirepro or fcp…seems the fast forwarding of the tape actually gives u that digital noise/dropout look…from there u can composit it on yur footage…so that i think is a faster way than mine…cheers…merv
