Recreating 70s disco funk mv special effects
I need to recreate some effects for an upcoming video with after effects. The following link is the reference I have been given. https://youtu.be/Lrle0x_DHBM
How can i achieve:
– the psychedelic delay effect as seen in 1:04.
– Glowing and changing colored tint on the trio as seen in 1:44
– Hypnotic flashes behind the two little person on both sides as seen in 2:35
– glowing pink outline as seen in 3:21Some contents or functionalities here are not available due to your cookie preferences!This happens because the functionality/content marked as “Google Youtube” uses cookies that you choosed to keep disabled.

This is all a lot easier if you are shooting elements for chroma-key. If not, you will have to rotoscope them to get the edge-based effects.

Echo effect, plus Colorama.
[Nelson Ng] “- Glowing and changing colored tint on the trio as seen in 1:44”
High-contrast levels adjustment, plus Tint effect (with changing colors), plus Unmult.

A few layers, with Fill effect for coloring, plus Blur, plus an Levels adjustment for Alpha only.

Drop Shadow effect or layer style.

You could play with a keying and the echo effect, but this was a DVE effect in the 70/80’s, not really sure how to recreate.

A glow effect would take care of the first part. Then in this instance some sort of luma key was applied and a the hue was adjusted.

I’d probably just duplicate the layers, use a key, add a blur effect, then a fill effect.

Could be done with the above method, or perhaps just a luma key, with just a glow.Johnny Cuevas, Editor
