Great tutorial! Very well explained. I just did the basic version - but the effect is so cool.

Missing your tutorials. So I check the old ones. Still actual. Instead of rotoscoping I used the object mask from the colour page - worked sufficiently well.

1:02:43 and ctrl+P to disable selected nodes, also Dissolve nodes can act like a switch to aid testing and there are options available in reactor.
Good deep dive getting the techniques into fusion! The tutorials for other software always have the same problems out of the box A) it looks flat like there's no actual depth, volume or substance to the disintegration B) the particles shapes don't change.
Without a 3D puppet to model, a quick solution to emulating volume is using techniques from making 2D-still-to-3D-parallax effects using layered displacement masks, or using duplicates of the roto splines with the feathering options, or using the pImage emitter if the lighting in the still isn't also "flat" to get rid of the billboarding.
If you use double polys to make gradients, use tab to select the inner handles then ctrl+b to box resize
