    I’m finishing up editing together a music video and am wondering if I could get some suggestions as to what filters I might use to replicate the feel of this music video, particularly the glow around 00:08-00:14 (and throughout)-

    I’ve been playing around with keyframing the the bloom, earthquake, and the brightness and contrast filters. What I’m struggling with is isolating the glow to certain parts of the frame (I haven’t been able to create a matte that looks natural). Is there a way to isolate the glow to just the highlights? Also, is there a way to keyframe the color of the glow? In this video they manage to change it from a yellow to an orange-ish color.

    I hope this makes sense, please ask me to clarify if it doesn’t. I’m a newb who probably has unrealistically high expectations. I would prefer to do all the post in FCP but if I needed to I could move it in to AE.

    Thanks in advance!
