Creating realistic fire and explosions in VFX requires a precise blend of 2D and 3D elements. To replicate the chaotic nature of real flames, details such as embers, smoke, and rogue flames are meticulously simulated, with physics-driven attributes like density, temperature, buoyancy, and dissipation carefully adjusted based on the fire’s source—whether wood, gasoline, or explosives.
Explosions extend beyond fireballs and mushroom clouds. Shock waves, debris, and rigid body dynamics (RBD) are essential in capturing destruction realistically. The interaction of these elements determines how structures break apart, how objects are displaced, and how energy spreads through an environment. By combining physics-based simulations with artistic direction, Ingenuity Studios ensures that every fire and explosion is both visually striking and physically credible.
