Overview

A generative, fractal-driven explosion sequence blending 3D simulation with 2D compositing.

Goal

Build a high-energy reveal that feels chaotic but is fully controlled and reproducible.

Process

Studied fractal geometry to ensure the branching patterns felt mathematically authentic.

Blender particle simulations exported as VDB caches, then composited with glow and chromatic aberration in After Effects.

The "burst" moment is held for two frames longer than instinct suggests — that brief pause lets the eye register it.

Takeaway

Simulations give you unpredictability; craft gives you control. The best work lives where both meet.
