DETONATION FILMS FREE STUFF

Along with our basic Word scripting template, Dan A. from Canada has contributed a set of his own Word templates, including a Theme and Treatment Template, an Ad Copy Template, a Shot Blocking Template and a Storyboard Template. Thanks, Dan!

We realize there are many amateur filmmakers whose budgetary or safety considerations prevent them from actually blowing stuff up. For them we will be offering our own stock footage, which can easily be dropped into shots using the "Screen" or "Luminescence" transparency tools in Premiere or Final Cut. (See the TUTORIAL PAGE for a demonstration.) Our stock is not as good as the excellent stuff by, say, Artbeats, but you can't beat the price.

We generally use the Speed tools in the editing software to slow explosions down to 50, 33, or even 20 percent of norm in order to give scale. To save bandwidth, we are posting them real-time. You can slow them down yourself as you desire.

Real ones. Front, side, and 3/4 angle. Most of the black space between flashes has been trimmed out for faster downloading. Cut and paste 'em as needed. Note: we have quite a few other free muzzle flashes on the site, so do keep looking around!

These were created as a Photoshop exercise using real flashes as source. They're technically not real but they're easy to use and tweak as you like, plus the files are just JPGS so they're real small. Front, side, and 3/4 view. A nice tutorial on using still images for muzzle flashes can be found here.

Black smoke stock slowed and laid against a JPG background plate using the "Greenscreen" and "Motion" tools. SFX always help give such scenes a kick.

Stock smoke is extremely useful but because smoke moves slowly, the complete files are much larger than our server space will support. We have posted the following short clips in the hope they will prove useful. A full disk of smoke footage is also available.

WIDESCREEN FRAMING GUIDES

For use in framing your shots if you are planning to crop your footage for widescreen. Put this PNG image (already transparent) in the track above your shot so you can see where the widescreen cutoff will be.

Thank you so much for the FX that you have supplied. I could not believe my eyes when I came upon your website.

You have given hope to myself and surely thousands more low budget film makers. This is going to revolutionize my films.

Once again I want to say thank you.
