Create the entire production-quality VFX shot, start to finish, including:
- Osprey 3D model, ready to be animated with separate controls of rotors and body (I modeled it myself, $200 value)
- Animation: Animate the body, engines, and rotors separately
- Environment: create a simple environment to ground the crash in reality
- Lighting: Add Vray HDRI lighting for realistic results
- Rendering: Grab my proven rendering settings, render out separate passes with Vray
- Compositing: Put it all together using multi-pass compositing and other tricks in After Effects
- Final polish: Color correction & Camera shake



Setup over 10 tyFlow simulations
- Dirt impacts, debris
- Rotors breaking
- sparks
- undercarriage breaking off
- engine explosion damage
And over 8 individual Phoenix simulations
- engine fire
- engine secondary explosions
- debris on fire
- multiple variations of dirt blasts / impact smoke
- white engine smoke
- rotor “spinning” smoke sim
- liquid mud viscous simulation with wetting
Follow me to master the techniques, then apply them to your own dream VFX shots!
- The goal for me is for YOU to have the skills and the confidence to simply have an idea for a cool VFX shot, and execute it like a pro. I’ll show you how.
