Fire & explosions

Add a candle or torch flame to your footage

Not every fire shot is an explosion — sometimes you just need a single flame to dance. vfxmagia adds a soft, flickering candle or torch flame to your footage, with a warm glow that pools onto nearby surfaces and a natural, restless motion. It's the intimate, period-correct light source that sets a whole scene's mood.

Why it works

What you get

  • Add a small, soft, naturally flickering flame to any shot.
  • Warm glow that pools believably onto nearby surfaces.
  • Ideal for period, candlelit, or torch-lit scenes.
  • Tune the flame size and liveliness across cheap renders.

How it works

Three steps

  1. 01Upload the footage that needs a flame in footage mode.
  2. 02Start from the Object on fire template and steer it to a small candle or torch flame.
  3. 03Render, review the flicker and glow, then download or refine.

Get started

A prompt to start from

A single candle flame flickers softly on the table, dancing gently in the still air, casting a warm pool of light and soft moving shadows across the actor's face. Intimate, photoreal, period.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Can I add just a small flame, not a big fire?
Yes. Describe a candle or torch flame specifically and the result stays small, soft, and intimate rather than a roaring fire.
Will the flame light my actor's face?
The model pools a warm glow onto nearby surfaces and faces, so the flame reads as the scene's real light source.
Can I make the flame flicker naturally?
Describe the air and movement and the flame dances restlessly rather than sitting static.
