Fire in motion brings a different kind of intensity.

This new collection from ActionVFX was built specifically for shots in motion; explosions racing past camera, fire rolling across vehicles, or flames reacting to atmospheric re-entry. 49 practical elements, captured in real-world wind conditions, Windy Fires brings cinematic movement that CG can’t fake.

✔ 49 real fire elements, all shot in wind
✔ Directional motion baked into the footage
✔ High-res formats, pre-keyed, ready for comp

Your team spends less time faking wind-driven fire. They drop in assets that already move.
That means fewer rounds of cleanup, more focus on timing, story and visuals.
Fire that lives in motion, not just sits still.
