  • Sony Film Effects-Are black particles possible?

    Posted by Randy Kilij on April 28, 2009 at 10:20 am

    Hi all,

    I’m using the Sony Film Effects plug-in (scratches, dust, hair). However, all of the flaws and particles appear only white in color. When I watch old movies, most of the flaws appear black. Does anyone know how to get black dust instead of white dust in Vegas Pro 8?

    Appreciated,
    Randy

    I quickly tried it:
    Created my film effects on a black background > then used the INVERT plugin to make the background white and scratches/dust black, then used the CHROMA KEYER plugin to make the white transparent leaving only the black dust, scratches etc

    However i think using the jitter and flashing might be problematic but you can fiddle around with it.
