Fireworks!

Fireworks - Krakatoa / Pflow setup from James Ramirez on Vimeo.

I found an evermotion pflow setup for making some fireworks. After tearing the thing apart piece by piece, i finally picked up on what was going on. I knew I wanted to convert it over to krakatoa instead of scanline, just took upping the amount of particles and saving out some extra channels.

KCM use:
Age / Lifespan to density.
density to TextCoord
Gradient Map based on TextCord.

Next step would to break out each event to get its own colors.

added a starglow in after effects to help push the flow factor since I haven't really figured out a proper emission or additive workflow.
