you can see a bit of grey smoke forming from combustion over top of the fire

plasma

At Cutting Edge, I worked with TD Robert East - http://tenmenmarching.com
and VFX superman Steve Anderson, and producer Jo Gregory, to create
some 'plasma - in a belljar' type visuals for an anti-smoking ad.

I used some post processing on my renders to help the Flame operator
compile the layers into the finished product.

Our plasma was then driven by audio files to give the illusion that the plasma was energized by the voice of the actor.
