Snow Effect

[jerekb]

Anyone know where I can find a projectable snow effect like a video loop preferably something down loadable and free I want something thats just black with little white things falling I'm sure most of you know what I'm talking about. Any help would be great? (P.S. I'm in a bit of a time crunch.)

Why not create your own. Take a video camera and lay it on its' side pointing at a black velour background. Now sprinkle salt while filming. You've got your loop.

because there will be people like me that will stand up and yell "hey...that's salt! they're trying to kill all those dancing snowflakes!"

ah....I was just tormented a few days ago with nutcracker music, in May!

oh.....use kosher salt....bigger flakes

I've used a Rosco Infinity animation wheel and a snow gobo (sandwiched with a small b/u -- I thought it was a bit too much snow) and it looked great. It may be cheaper for you.
