@Gary,
I finally got around to looking at this tutorial and wanted to try to do something with a wisp of smoke in a video. Here is a first trial with Smoke14 using Video Pro X7, keyframing size, position, rotation, whirlpool, and distortion effects. I had never tried something like this before. Needs work to get it smooth, but I'll save that for another video.
Thanks for the tutorial and the smoke, they will come in handy.
John
