I have an upcoming project that requires some simple arrows to show how a fuel pump works. The software I’ll probably use to do this is called Particle Illusion. It’s used for all kinds of video effects. I decided to have a go at making some explosions on some video we shot back in high school (1990).

The video was shot for a health video, so we needed footage of people getting hurt. Not sure why he jumped off the slide in that direction, but it works with the bomb I added 15 years later.
