muzzle flash tutorial

We are going to include a variety of different gun shots, therefore we had to look into how the gun shots are actually made and we came across this video which goes through the process. 






We will use this Freddiew2 tutorial for all of our muzzle flash effects and for general tips and dos and don'ts. The main thing we found out was that we needed to have quite a large muzzle flash and you need to have smoke following the shot. Most video have too small muzzle flashes so we will use a seemingly over-sized flare but it should make it seem more realistic. The other main point with the muzzle flashes was how it interacts with the environment. We need to add in brighter sections on places which would be lit up by the flare. As we have many shots fired in our sequence we need to get it right so we feel that this is the most accurate way of putting in a muzzle flash effect.
