3.    “Press apple, shift and “Y” or go to new, layer and solid.  Then choose the colour white, press the “make comp size” and then ok

4.    Press q until finding a circle or go to tool bar to press circle.  When you found it, begin to make a circle on the screen.

5.    Use a pen by choosing the tool bar or hit “g”.  Then click four points on the circle line with the pen tool.  When it done hit “g” until finding the “convert vertex tool” or use the tool bar.

6.    Then make polygon with convert vertex tool.  When it seem right, tyre to make a squarely fire shape.

7.     Then use the convert vertex tool to smooth the fire shape.

8.    Click the white solid and hit “f” to get mask feather.  Change the mask feather pixel to 3.0.

9.    Go to the effect control, right click the mouse, go to stylize and down to glow.

10.     Change glow colour to “A & B color”.  Change white to yellow and black to red.

11.     After that keep the glow intensity out and keep the glow radius.  

12.    If the fire seems all right, then right click then mouse, go to blur & sharpen and down to fast blur then change the blurriness 0 to 5.

13.     Put the fireball where it going to start. Then go to the mask in the white solid by pressing “m” two times. That will show four different masks.    

14.      Make the fireball disappear by using the mask expansion to decrease it.

15.      Press “p” (position) after that click the stopwatch and move the fireball where it going to relies it.

16.     When fireball reach at the end.  Go to the mask and change the mask expansion to 0,which will return back the way it was.

17.      Starch the fireball out of the screen.

18.     Press “r” (rotation) click the stopwatch where fireball starts to out of the screen.

19.      Now create an adjustment layer for the background.  But put the adjustment layer at below white solid.

20.     Create a circle a round the fireball.

21.      Then go control effect, right click of the mouse, color correction and go level.

22.       Drag the right level up in the histogram with RGB.  Change the RGB to red at channel and do the same thing again dragging the level.

23.     Mask feather the whole tun until it blend and became a red glow.

24.     Do the same thing as fourteen to seventeen but move the red glow instead.

25.      When it finish click the motion blur and click the white solid and adjustment layer into motion blur as as well.

4.    Drag fractal noise onto the screen.
   
5.    Then go to fractal type.  That is in the effect control. Then change basic into dynamic twist.

6.    Increase the contract to 320.0 or more and decrease the brightness to -40.0

7.     Decrease the complexity to 5.0.

8.    Back to the effects & presets and type in Colorama

9.    Then drag it onto line sold

10.    Back to the control effect, go to colorama and choose output cycle. Then go in the Use Preset Palett and down to fire

                                                Keeper

In the year 3000 in a dirty alley, a young boy looks up at an old, abandoned building.  What he sees is beyond the human eye.  In a city crowd, an old man tries to push against the flow of traffic; he appears to be looking for something or someone.  Blinking, turning and running from the building, the boy collides with the old man and falls to the footpath.  The man pulls the boy towards him.  They lock eyes. “You can see them too.”

 part 2

Tick tap toe

The sound of a rusty bus engine booming and chugging in the countryside, driving through a dark town.  In the bus there is no-one, except for a girl who is looking out the window and a mystery guy who is sitting next to her reading a book.

The bus pulls over, then the girl realises that this is her stop.  She stretches her arms up above her head because she’s been there for many hours.  After that, she goes down to get her luggage.  The guy closes his book. As he stands up, the book drops down to the floor.

When she sees the book next to her, she grabs the book and hands it to the guy.  She hands the book to the guy but he has already vanished into thin air. 

As she steps out, the mystery guy is not to be found.  Holding his book, she stares at the front cover and realizes that it has her name on the cover.
