**Optional**

- Did you use Houdini?  
Yes. but only for smoke flipbook, most of work done with blender.

- Description

In Asian philosophy, there is something called the Five Elements.  
The idea is that the changes in the universe are represented by the five elements: Soil, Metal, Water, Wood, and Fire.  
I was inspired by this to depict a shaman character casting elemental spells.

Signature idea for this FX is morphing with geometry cache.  
I want to represent the five elements as morphing geometry.  
I made Shapekey animation with blender and export as Alembic

- Engine version  
5.1.0
