  Optical Flares for Motion 5 Available Early August!!!

  Posted by Jimmylee Remillard on June 30, 2011 at 6:15 pm

  I think this needs a little bit more attention, so here it is.

  Motionvfx.com is designing a Lens Flare plug-in that is going to rock the socks off of any Motion Graphics or Visual Effects artist.

  

  The interface looks awesome, they also have a few videos over at https://www.motionvfx.com/mplugs.html

  I for one am very excited and can not wait for this, I have been asking for it ever sense Video Copilots Optical Flares.

  I hope with this there is more to come for the Apple Motion Community!

  That’s great. I’m happy to see more plug-ins being built for Motion. To bad it will not work in Motion 4. Where does it say that it is coming in August? Also, Red giant already has a lens flare plug-in for Motion (Not Motion 5 yet). I hope this plug in you can place a lens flare in a location and it will stay there when Motion’s 3D camera moves. Red Giants you would have to move the lens flare yourself with keyframes where as if you are AE then you can place it in a specific location and when the camera moves it stays put…not sure if I’m making any sense. Regardless, thanks for sharing!

  “Where does it say that it is coming in August?”
  – On his site he stated that it will be out late July – early August.

  “Red giant already has a lens flare plug-in for Motion (Not Motion 5 yet)”
  – I currently use Knoll Light Flares and it is horrible on your system resources. It (at least for me) is not really worth the trouble of the few good flares they have.

  I also wrote some questions to Szymon and he said that it is very intuitive and will not be a hog like Knoll Light Flares.

  Hi guys,

  We are currently finishing heavy testing and fixing small bugs, so my plan is to submit mFlare to MacAppStore this weekend.
  In the meantime, I’ve launched new mFlare site which now includes first tutorials 🙂

  Enjoy!
