Got a burning desire to add a fire effect to your next After Effects project? We’ve got you covered.Creating realistic simulated fire in After Effects is one of the most challenging tasks for any VFX artist. There are a lot of areas in which After Effects soars — motion graphics, tracking, 2D animation — but physics simulations is not one of them.The best option for creating realistic fire effects is using expensive software like Houdini or Fume FX for Maya. The other option is to use pre-rendered fire footage which works in some cases, but it isn’t very versatile and can also be quite expensive.You’ve probably been looking around for good fire tutorials online, but honestly, other than a few tutorials from, there aren’t a lot of native-effects tutorials for creating good fire effects.In this RocketStock exclusive, we’ll show you how to create realistic fire effects in AE using native plugins and a free After Effects effect preset.

Here’s what the end result will look like:If you want to make this effect yourself, I highly encourage you to follow along with the following step-by-step tutorial below so you can get a good grasp on how this technique is accomplished.

How to Create Fire in After Effects Step 1: Create a New LayerThe fire effect will work with any type of layer in After Effects — solid, shape, footage, vector, text, etc. Create a new layer in the shape in which you want the fire effect to work. If it’s text, simply create text. If you are wanting to create a campfire style effect, create a small triangle using the mask tool on a solid.For this tutorial, we’re going to give a shout out to Johnny Cash and create a ring of fire. In order to do so, simply select the Ellipse Tool (Q) and adjust the style settings so that fill is set to transparent and the stroke is set to 35 (or however thick you want the ring to be). Step 2: Apply the Free Fire EffectIf you’ve already installed the free fire effect for After Effects, type Fire by RocketStock in your effects and presets browser. You should see the preset pop up.

Simply drag the effect to your desired layer. Step 3: Adjust the SettingsYou should immediately see a fire effect begin to form. However, depending on your desired use, you will probably want to adjust the effect to match your needs. This is where the five sliders come into play.

In your effect panel you should see the effect settings along with five sliders. Here’s what it looks like:Each of the five sliders has a very unique function. Here’s a quick breakdown:.

Flame Height: Changes the distance the flames come off of the affected object. Fractal Size: Changes the size of the fire ‘wisps.’. Fire Density: Changes the thickness of the fire. Flicker Speed: Changes the speed of the fire. Random Seed: Changes the way the fire looks.You can also change the tint of the fire by adding a Hue/Saturation effect to the layer and rotating the wheel.

Step 4: Set Blending Mode to ‘Screen’ or ‘Add’By default, your fire effect will have a little black mixed in. You will want to change the layer transfer mode to ‘Screen’ or ‘Add’ depending on your needs. I tend to like screen better, as color information is better retained. But Add can create good results if you want your fire to be a little more blown out.

Step 5: Layer and StylizeLike a real fire, good fire in After Effects isn’t on a single layer. Instead, you’ll get better results if you create multiple layers with different degrees of density, height, and speed. You could also play around with different colors, glow effects, and blurs to give your fire just a little extra added realism.In the following example, we simply dropped in a flare from Optical Flares over our ring-of-fire composition and set the transfer mode to add.
