Fire & Smoke

The ruins of the Tridib building experienced a major explosion and fire in the early hours of the morning. The cause of the explosion remains a mystery but experts suspect that it definitly was an overloaded build machine that could not take it anymore. In an earlier incident the building had been reduced to ruins by a similar phenomenon leaving the exterior of the building intact. It seemed that all the employees within the building had imploded. This, to day, remains a mystery...

Sounds like a promising story ? Well check it out yourself...



Well this infact is just another weekend VFX composite. Created using the usual after effects and photoshop CS5, which has a great tool - the content aware fill that was used to reduce the Tridib building to ruins. The other elements are from action essentials by video copilot. All composited with various matte layers, a little color correction and motion tracking. That looks something like the snapshot below...
