Welcome to Studentfilms.com, the online film discussion forum for filmmakers and students who are applying to film school, attending film school, need advice on making films, or just want to share their films with the world.
There is a nifty little program called AlamDV. I hear it satisfys many many student filmmakers. Unfortunately it doesn't work with my footage for various tech. reasons... so i cant give you my personal oppinion on the program, but im sure you could find it useful concidering that it is designed for what exactly what you are looking to do. I believe it's selling for 50 bucks or so. Good Luck!
Hope Im not to late to weigh in on this. Check the link below, it describes in detail how to make some very good looking muzzle flashes in Photoshop. Best of luck man. R. M. McWhorter
