making Smoke Ae reducing velocity or speed of it?

hi all,

hope around answer , not of @ show....

 

i creating smoke (see pic) want slow smoke velocity or speed down. generating fast , slower or bit 'whispy'er' lack of better term. think instance in order, not find master vault writing instances. or write matter... couple of areas look? maybe quick fix on challenge pointers? thinking / velocity 50% yet not sure how write it, or if needs adjusted gain desired 'whispy or slower rising smoke?

thanks in advance,

nc

this effect based on physics in real world. try reducing gravity -.05, increase life span , generate few particles. i'd suggest try creating pre-comp using fractal noise , use blur map compound blur , displacement map. you'll more whispy smoke. screenshot shows -.1 gravity because numbers rounded up. less gravity slower motion. set velocity 0 or small.

 

hope helps.
