About 2 years ago, when I was still using Avid Liquid, I was having such a tough time climbing the learning paths to Boris FX and Boris Grafitti (I had bought them as alternatives to the more expensive After Effects) that I searched for a cheaper easier to learn compositing programme.
I needed to make a volcano errupt!

After a lot of searching I found Particle Illusion.
Last week I read on Creative Cow's website that the relatively unknown Particle Illusion was to be exhibited at NAB 2009.
So, I felt that this tutorial might be of extra interest to anyone looking for a compositing programme with an easy learning slope....

AE is still out of reach for me, but I find that Avid FX is more than enough for the simple effects I need in my editing style and needs
With the exception of errupting volcanoes!.

Good luck and Regards,
Douglas

Wow, that was quick! Do you ever sleep?

Nice introduction to pI, btw. It's really a nice app and you can do wonderful things with it.

Keep it up, regards g_f
