No, dadgummit.
It was pretty funny. I had inteviewed him for quite a while and he spoke quite nrmal. Then I asked him to do a “your watching” line and he busted into the hulk character. I rarely laugh on the spot but couldnt help it this time.

grinner, how do u do this light fx?

Sure.
I will post up a tutorial with pics when I get a chance.
In a nutshell, I use saphhire glows as filler. You an use BCC glows the same way but you’ll run into te render in to out bug from time to time wit em. I use em as transitions and you can do it with only three keyframes. The first and last keyframe are the same… brightness and width all the way down and threshhold clamped all the way. The middle one, placed over a quick dissolve (3 frames or so) and you can play with threshhold, width and brightness to your liking.
this make sense? If not, lemme know. Pics’ll help.
Ya just add an edit on a track above your lil 3 frame dissolve. I vry the duractions but you can start b stepping back 3 frames before the dssolve and add another edit 3 frames after. You can also get funky with these as filters on the clip itself, cranking brighness on the beat of music and such. I use scanlines the same way.

ye it make sense. i liked this colored glow. im doing somthing simmiler without color glow from the “color effect”, when im taking the luma renge white and black points but i never get the colors be nice like the one u did.
i’ll giveit a try with the BCC (we dont have saphhir).
it will be great seeing this tutorial.
thx.
