  • Filters and Grads in Media 100HD/Boris a la Top Gear

    Posted by Alex Bond on May 31, 2007 at 8:20 am

    Hi,

    I am trying to put some filter effects over some travel footage to make it look more glossy. I’d like to pump the saturation in some shots, just using M100s settings, but also add some edges either in a light orange or dark grey and can’t work out how to do it in Boris. I also have after effects but I’m trying to cut down on render times by doing it all in M100 itself (though i know i’ll have to render within the HD platform!).

    If anyone is familiar with the BBC motor show Top Gear, this is where I am gleaning inspiration from, though it looks to me as though most of their effects are acheived using filters on location. I am using HD Cam footage shot clean with no filters – it’s good footage, I just want to jazz it up a little.

    I do not have a manual (I posted a similar request on another site and someone just told me to read the manual).

    Any help gratefully received.

    Thanks

    Alex.

    Hi Alex,

    I’d like to help – can you send me a sample (still) image of the effect that you are trying to achieve and also a sample (still) image of the source clip and I’ll see if I can figure it out. Which Boris product are you using?

    Please send the images to me at peterm@borisfx.com

    Cheers,

    Peter.
