I’ve done something similar with a picture i wanted it to fly in and fill in the picture from left to right. ayatoweb.com has a very nice walk through kinda guide how to do it. not a full tutorial but its easy to pull off. basically it using the shatter effect but reversing it so that it fills in you can pretty much get the shap of your “particles” to be anything you want. look into it it might do the job your looking for to simulate particles filling in an object or logo.

so basicly everyone is saying i should use something like a particle system to cover my body to look like fire. in looking at a few fantastic 4 picture of the human flame he is pretty much engulfed in an orange fire like texture and a few flames that ripple off that. I was hoping to work with masks and rotoscoping because i feel more comfortable with in that dealing with many of lightsaber and star wars. moving onto a totally new perspective on how to pull off this effect. what techniques would be best way to turn body into that orange firey color and then add the ambince and noise to go along with it. would that still involve particle systems?
