This tutorial shows how to make realistic fire in After Effects without 3rd party plugins. The "Fire & Smoke" After Effects template has many additional custom fire effects, and is available at https://CreationEffects.com/fire-and-smoke.

Template Description:
Fire & Smoke is a collection of realistic and customizable fire, smoke, sparks, and heat haze effects (aka heat distortion) for Adobe After Effects. The fire and smoke effects are made entirely in After Effects with no pre-rendered elements and no 3rd-party plugins, so you have ultimate control over the look and behavior of the flame or fire, making it ideal for integrating into your footage or motion graphics.

With 17 fire, smoke, and sparks presets, and with over 30 customization controls for each, you can achieve a wide variety of fire looks. As a bonus, the project for the demo video is included, giving you access to all the custom fire and title animations seen in the video!
