This project is my approach to getting to experience the visual effects creation process. I believe I will be able to communicate more efficiently in collaborative environments if I am familiar with other game design processes, so I tried to at least have some basic experience with VFX creation.

My biggest takeaway from these projects is how observation plays a huge role in VFX creation. When creating effects similar to real-life events, such as burning flames, it is essential to observe flames in real life and try to capture the key aspects to focus on when trying to recreate them. I noticed that fire comes in multiple layers with multiple colors, while flames have more fluctuation compared to smoke. These two aspects then became my main focus when creating this VFX. This experience encourages me to incorporate observation and reflection in future creation processes.
