Dirt Explosions

Today i managed to finish the scene that i started editing yesterday, and have now started another one. I also found a really good effect that is called "Dirt Charges", which are explosions that are made up of dirt, for example an artillery shell hitting the ground would cause the ground to erupt. I think this is a really good effect and have added it to some of the scenes. However, the ground that explodes is a different colour to the ground in my film yet i overcame this problem by clicking on "effect-colour-curves". The curve tool allowed me to change the colour of the dirt that is being flung into the air and as a result i was able to make it look like there are actually explosions in the scene.
