    Posted by Jeff Jones on December 7, 2007 at 2:12 am

    Hi there,

    How can I achieve the chrome effect as seen in Photoshops effects library in AFter Effects?
    I have tried Eyecandy for After Effects but this is no where near as good as Photoshops.

    Please see below for a deatiled description of what i want to achieve.

    I hope someone can help! Thanks in advance.

    Hi Jeff,

    Try this simple method:

    -Duplicate your layer.

    -Apply the “Channel Mixer” effect to the top later and check the “Monochrom” box

    -Apply now CC Plastic still to the top layer, play with the Cut Min, Height parameters & especially light!

    -Set the transfer mode to Luminosity

    This should give you a very close look.

    Salut,
    Serge

    …export video in an image/animation format such as TIF, BMP, etc.

    …open Photoshop..

    …record effect to one video image file in Photoshop,

    …batch update with recorded keystokes.

    …import resulting image sequence files into ANY video editor (i.e., NLE) or AE.

    Done… with EXACT Photoshopt effect.

    For details… read the Photoshop manual or do a search of this site…keywords – Photoshop Filters AE7
