I've been working on my next shot, of the spore crashing into the dirt. I've been trying to come up with ways of making this cinematic and the shot in Independance Day which has been replicated in many movies kept popping into my head. Below is the playblast, I'm playing around in After Effects to make it much more dramatic with dirt spraying everywhere.I think with the right sound effects this could work.


The dirt will reach the camera after some post-processing in AE and cover it, ending the shot.
