Creating a Laser Battle shows VFX artists how to generate science-fiction-style gun battles, complete with laser beams, sparks, and set damage. The effects are created right inside After Effects, with its built-in particle tools, rotoscoping, motion tracking, and color, distortion, and blur effects. Combining these techniques in your own shots will allow you to create a wide variety of futuristic gun blasts.
Topics include:
Running particle simulations to create beams and sparks
Altering the beams with distortion, blur, and color effects
Creating interactive lighting through masking and color grading
Creating set damage by rotoscoping and integrating matte paintings
Animating post camera moves
Matching effects through multiple shots
