Destruction

Rubble, Wrecks and Blast Damage

Stills for the damage after the event: debris rubble piles to heap in streets and doorways, damaged cars, and nuclear explosions on the horizon. Add building damage and cracks to walls still standing, and flying debris for the moment of impact.

Category information

Picking a file size

Rubble usually sits closest to the lens, where every chunk and splinter shows, so give it the largest PNGs (up to 8K). A blast on the far skyline ends up small in frame and works from a lighter file.

How to build a destroyed street

Work back to front: damage on the distant skyline first, wrecked cars in the middle distance, rubble last in the foreground.
Pick and tint rubble to match what it fell from: gray concrete beside office blocks, red brick beside houses, charred black near a fire.
Give every still the plate's grain so none looks cleaner than your footage. In After Effects, Effect → Noise & Grain → Match Grain samples it for you.
For more wrecks to scatter down the road, browse destroyed cars.
