  • Adding a “Recording Video Viewfinder Screen” overlay?

    Posted by Rob Lindsay on December 16, 2020 at 11:36 pm

    A client wants a home video look to her video using the old flashing red record light, changing time code and frame outline as an overlay to the finished footage.

    Does anyone have a source for this overlay?

    Thanks!

    Hi Rob

    Downloaded a free package of viewfinder overlays last month. Unfortunately, I can remember where (wait ’till you get to be my age…) Send me an email address where I can send you a link to a wetransfer where you can download what I have.

    Cheers !

    P.S.: Would this work for you ? Flashing red light and running counter.

    Think I got it here: https://www.videvo.net/stock-video-footage/camcorder%20overlay/

    Thank you, Francois! I d/l’ed it and put it into the top video track but I am missing the right way to make it transparent. What do I need to do?
