ActionVFX releases 15 free burn mark textures


Stock practical effects site ActionVFX has released a new set of 15 free burn mark textures, designed to complement explosions in visual effects shots.

The textures, which can be overlaid on the ground beneath a fireball, are presented as 2,500 x 2,500px black-and-white PNG files with alpha channels. The files are licensed for commercial use.

The burn marks complement ActionVFX’s existing free bullet FX assets and free footage of smoke plumes and dust waves. All of the files are licensed for commercial use.

High-quality commercial fire and explosion effects
Launched last year after a successful Kickstarter funding campaign, ActionVFX is intended to provide unique, high-quality stock effects footage tailored to the needs of VFX artists.

Its commercial clips, which include explosions, fireballs, ground fires, and fires on burning structures, are all shot in Log colour space at 60 or 120fps, and are available at 2K or 4K resolution.

The 4K versions also come with the original unkeyed footage as raw .R3D or .MFX files. The effects stay in frame throughout the shots, and the clips are available to purchase individually as well as in collections.
