Light Leak Transitions?

PostSat Aug 06, 2022 2:24 pm

Hey everyone,

I was looking to add some cool effects/transitions to a wedding video I am putting together. From what I have seen light leaks seem to add a lot to the visuals. I was wondering if some of you use them and if you can recommend a specific place to get pre-made ones.

Boris FX has a filter for light leaks. The advantage over trying it in camera is full control…
No, an iGPU is not enough, and you can't use HEVC 10 bit 4:2:2 in the free version.

You can check out Red Giant Universe or individual effects pack. Here’s one of the light leaks pack. I’ve used them on and off and they’re awesome products but so GPU intensive that if you don’t have enough gpu juice it will crash your system :(.

You might also want to check this article out from Motion Array. You might be able to use one of the light leak overlays.

BorisFx Continuum and BorisFx Sapphire. I’ve used them for many years for films and networks. Their support is great too.
