FREE STOCK FOOTAGE FROM DETONATION FILMS !

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.

These files are full 720x480 DV NTSC mov files, at 29.97 fps.

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.

SMOKE

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.

‹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.
