Hello Zen. Feel free to contact Andrew Kramer to learn more about his workflow. I use Camtasia Studio, with Audio Cleanup done in Adobe Audition.

There is definitely a lot of 3D in there, which I just can’t break down for you here, but a lot of it is color correction and displacement maps to simulate a hot uncomfortable environment. What effects particular are you talking about?
I thought I w w only person to see Constantine…
Well i am talking about the smoke that is coming out of different objects like they are breaking in particles and it kinds of create a cool effect that wind is blowing very fast and objects are breaking down into particles……can u plz help me with that smoke kind of effect….n wel thanx for the help….i am also thinking the same that they use a lot of colour correction and displacement maps….

wel u may say that i am very interested and attracted towards hell,fantasy,gothic,etc. kind of things…..
A lot of that can be done with Trapcode Particular and maybe even Form. I did a tutorial on dissolving logo’s, text, and people. You can find it on the site. Maybe that will help.
oh! yeah thanx…..wel some of my friends and i are making a short movie on supernatural kind of things so i require that effect for a scene and thanx to u may b i am able to reproduce it……
