Light at camera
Anyone have a good way to do the bright light at the camera effect that was abused in the transformers movie. Movie was great bu they definitely overused that light effect. Thanks for any tips.

The built-in Lens Flare effect?
-
Alright completely off topic, but I didn’t think the effect was overused at all. The whole point with the lighting in the movie was to give you a sense of awe and try and make the bots feel larger than life. I thought the light use in the movie was very well done actually…
Slightly more to answer your question, yes, I would try the built in Lens Flare or even better Knoll Light Factory. You can try dialing the effect down significantly to get rid of the steriotypical “canned” lens flare effect look.

Dude, as soon as every action sequence started, it was suddenly sunset and the heroes looked wistfully past the camera while a lovely golden lens flare flickered behind their dramatic faces. Then the robots attacked. This happened about 500 times 🙂
