    Hi Crew

    How do i add Looks to Premiere Pro. I.e. In Final Cut Pro, I nest items and then added a vignette to nest and consistent vignette was added, even if i digitally zoomed in on some clips. In Premiere Pro, the looks/vignette is added but only affects the native image of all the files, not the final zoomed in scene.

    I hope that makes sense. My work around was a black video added with inverse circle effect and feather and opacity. This was to added consistent vignette to finalize my video.

    I would like to go back to using MB Looks.

    What do i do??

    That’s great if it’s one zoomed clip. There are many different clips of different sizes

    Or.. when you are done the edit, nest the entire sequence and add MBL.

    I am going to try to explain better since the suggestions you all offered were ones i tried.

    I have 1 clip. I cut the clip in half. the first clip is the same size as the comp size. The next clip is the same clip but zoomed in to give a different look to shot.

    I then nested the 2 clips together. Added MBL to the nest. What happened is that both clips got mbl added but to the original size, same as comp. So the zoomed in clip lost the vignette because it was zoomed in past it.

    In the past, when i used FCP, you would nest then add MBL to the nest. This was how you achieved your final look to your edited material. In AE, you would add an adjustment layer and then MBL over the material. In FCP, the nest acted like an AE adjustment layer.

    How do i achieve the same thing in Premiere Pro???
