  • Solar atmosphere tutorial. Need to make it blue color

    Hi guys,

    First of all let me get it out of the way right here. Im a beginner and really like after effects so much that i am eager to learn everything, and i mean everything.
    Can across this awesome tutorial on YouTube and thought to myself lets try to make something like that.
    I did all of the steps and it came out awesome to say the least.

    Only i do not want the same outcome as the tutorial … there is no personal touch there … so i am looking to make it a little different with a blue very very nice blue color to the sun. Yes there are blue sun’s they are called blue giants. 🙂

    You can see the sun in this youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ff0rdzVROeA

    The color in the tutorial is orange/yellow like the right color of the sun as it should be, but i am looking to change that to the color blue.
    How can i go about in doing that?

    Thank you for any help here! 🙂

    It’s right there in the tutorial at around 19:00 minutes. Instead of cranking up red/decreasing blue, you would do the opposite. Crank up the blue channel, decrease red.

    Also, you could just add a hue saturation effect and rotate the hue until you turned it blue.

    Kramer also made a nice Vibrance plugin that should do the trick. I haven’t used it much, but it supposedly will give you some better (aka more vibrant) results than hue/saturation.

    I’ve used it and should have mentioned it. It’s a good little tool for quickly colorizing things. Thx for the reminder.
